Unfortunately if you do not have a Chinese national ID then you cannot add a non China-based credit card to Alipay, try using a debit card.
Not true anymore, this is fairly recent I believe and you can use foreign credit cards.
I just came back from China 2 weeks ago and I've used alipay everywhere with no issues.
I just followed the steps when I did it, did not have any issues.
