Must‑read Tips | WeChat Transfer Evidence Collection: Practical Guide to Bill Export

In cases such as private lending, sales contracts and labor disputes, WeChat transfer records serve as very common evidence of capital transactions. Many users get stuck when encountering facial‑recognition verification while exporting bills. This article sorts out three methods to export WeChat transfer records, which support alternative identity verification without facial recognition. You may choose as needed for personal account reconciliation or evidence collection in litigation.

✅ Note: Only the real‑name authenticated owner of the WeChat account may perform these operations. When the system pops up the facial‑verification page, select Other Verification Methods: complete verification with your name, ID number and payment password. If this option is not directly displayed, attempt one facial‑recognition verification and let it fail; the alternative entry for ID‑and‑password verification will then appear.

Method 1: Export complete bills for a full time period

Applicable scenarios: Export all income and expenditure records within a period at one time, prepare reconciliation ledgers, and export an Excel file for easy copying and import into WPS Spreadsheets to organize case materials.

Operating Steps:

1. WeChat → Me → Services → Wallet → Bills in the upper right corner

2. On the bill page, click "… (More)" in the upper right corner → Download Bill

3. Bill purpose selection: For personal account reconciliation, export Excel spreadsheet (no electronic official seal, suitable for internal ledger sorting)

4. Receive file: Enter email address (recommended), the file will be sent to the email; a maximum of one year of records can be exported at a time. If exceeding one year, export in multiple batches

5. Time setting: Select [Custom Time], set the start and end dates for inquiry, and click Next

6. Identity Verification: Select other verification methods, enter your real-name, ID number and payment password. Facial recognition is not required.

7. Submit the application and wait for notification. Go to your mailbox to download the compressed package. The decompression password can be found in the message from the 【WeChat Pay】 official account.

8.After decompression, obtain the Excel transaction record, which can be directly imported into WPS Smart Spreadsheet to filter and organize case fund records.

Method 2: Export all transfer vouchers with a single contact

Applicable scenario: Litigation cases where you need to preserve all transfer records between you and a specific opposing party to submit as evidence to the court.

Operation steps:

1. WeChat → Me → Services → Wallet → Bills → All Bills, filter for 【Transfers】

2. Open any transfer record with this contact

3. Click View Transaction History → Export Certificate

4. Set the start and end time, and fill in the real name of the other party's WeChat real-name authentication.

5. Identity verification: ID information + payment password verification, no facial recognition required.

6. Submit the application. The official WeChat Pay public account will push a PDF certificate with an electronic official seal, which can be directly submitted as litigation evidence.

Method 3: Electronic Certificate for a Single Transfer

Applicable scenario: When you only need the official certificate of a specific transfer to quickly preserve evidence of a single fund payment.

Operating steps:

1. Locate this transfer record in the bill list and enter the details page.

2. Click Apply for Electronic Transfer Certificate at the bottom left.

 3. Fill in the real-name of the payee and complete identity document + payment password verification (facial recognition is not required).

4. Receive the PDF document with an electronic seal in the WeChat Pay official account. You may save or print it for case materials.

⚠️ Important Reminders from Lawyers

1. Distinction of evidence validity

The Excel exported for "personal account reconciliation" is only for internal sorting and has no electronic official seal. For court submission, the PDF version marked "for supporting evidence" is preferred. It carries the official electronic seal of Tenpay and boasts stronger probative force.

2. Bills will not disappear when you delete records on your phone: Even if you manually delete local bills on your mobile device, the complete transaction statement exported from the official backend still contains all transaction records.

3. A transfer statement alone cannot constitute a complete evidence chain: With only transfer vouchers, you also need supporting materials such as chat records, IOUs and contracts to prove the nature of the funds (loan / payment for goods, etc.) so as to form a complete evidence chain.

4. Permission reminder: You can only retrieve transaction statements of your own real-name verified WeChat account. It is not allowed to access other people's WeChat bills without their authorization. Do not engage in illegal operations.
