About HaiPay News
HaiPay News is a factual, source-led record of global payment industry developments.
Source Standards
- Every published article cites at least two independent sources.
- Regulation, policy, and licensing stories must cite at least one official source (regulator, government body, or company announcement) plus at least one additional independent source.
- Stories supported by only one official source remain under editorial review and are not published.
- Unverified social media accounts are never used as the sole source.
- All cited sources are publicly accessible to readers.
AI-Assisted Workflow
Articles may be drafted by HaiPay News Desk with AI-assisted research. Every published article must be reviewed by a named human editor. AI is not permitted to publish without human approval.
Human Review
- The author of every article is HaiPay News Desk.
- Every article carries the name of a human editor, displayed on the article page.
- Publication is triggered only by a named editor.
Corrections Policy
- We correct factual errors within 24 hours of discovery and log the correction at the top of the article.
- Material corrections refresh the article's dateModified and add a visible banner.
- We do not delete published articles unless legally required; significant withdrawals are labeled as retracted.
No Advertising / No Sponsored News
- HaiPay News does not accept advertising, sponsored stories, or paid link placements.
- The news section does not promote HaiPay products.
- HaiPay product pages are kept separate from HaiPay News.
Image Use Policy
HaiPay News uses images sourced from the publishers cited in each report, from official organizations (regulators, government bodies, or the companies involved in the reported event), or from other verified public sources. We choose images that reflect the reported event or its official context.
Every published image is recorded with its source URL, publisher, source type, and the time we accessed it. This information is available in the article's image credit and source attribution.
We do not use AI-generated images for news coverage. We do not use generic stock photos as event imagery. When an image is illustrative rather than event-specific, it cannot be published and must remain under editorial review.
If you believe an image has been attributed incorrectly, or if you are a rights holder requesting correction or removal, contact us at support@haipay.net. We aim to respond within one business day.
