TOKYO — Japanese e-payment service PayPay has entered partnerships with four platforms operating in a combined six countries to better serve the influx of tourists visiting Japan, the company said Monday.
Users of BigPay and K PLUS, which are widely used in Thailand, Bluecode, used in Germany, and Kaspi.kz, used in Kazakhstan, will now be able to pay at Japanese stores by scanning PayPay QR codes. BigPay also operates in Malaysia and Singapore, while Bluecode is also used in Austria.
