Binance Pay Brings Seamless Digital Payments to Japan's Merchants

Binance Pay has expanded its reach in Japan by partnering with PayPay to enable seamless payments at millions of merchants nationwide. Eligible overseas Binance Pay users can now use their accounts to make purchases at these merchants, and the transactions will be settled in Japanese yen.

The interoperability between Binance Pay and PayPay is made possible through HIVEX, a federated payment framework developed by TBCASoft, Inc. This integration reflects Binance's vision of making digital asset payments more accessible across everyday and cross-border transactions.

'As one of the world's leading travel destinations, Japan is shaping the future of connected, cashless payments,' said Thomas Gregory, VP of Payments & Fiat at Binance. 'Our integration with PayPay reflects a shared vision of making payments more seamless, borderless, and accessible for travelers visiting the country.'
