Getting WeChat Pay while on a tourist visa

I have been working online teaching for five years, while living in Asia.  During that time, I have been using a service that allows parents to pay using WeChat Pay, with high fees.  I am planning to visit Malaysia for 3 months beginning at the end of September. I saw that people in Malaysia can sign up for WeChat Pay.  Does anyone know if a foreigner can sign up for WeChat Pay while on a tourist visa in Malaysia?



I would love to be able to cut out the middle man or, in this case, Stripe.  I appreciate any help people can provide.
