Binance Pay Integrates with PayPay in Japan via HIVEX

Binance Pay has partnered with PayPay to enable payments at merchants in Japan through HIVEX . Starting September 30, 2026, eligible overseas Binance Pay users can make purchases at millions of merchant locations in Japan. The integration allows approximately 48 million eligible Binance Pay users across more than 100 countries and regions to make transactions with Japanese yen.

The move reflects Binance's long-term vision of making digital asset payments more accessible across everyday and cross-border transactions. According to Thomas Gregory, VP of Payments & Fiat at Binance, the integration demonstrates how established local payment networks can bridge digital assets with familiar fiat-based payment experiences.

This interoperability is designed for travelers visiting Japan and supports spending across dining, shopping, accommodation, and other travel-related purchases. The launch builds on Binance Pay's broader QR payment network across Asia's major travel corridors.
