Japanese convenience stores for API only

Accept payments from Japanese convenience stores using our APIs, and build your own payment form to have full control over the look and feel of your checkout page.

To accept payments from Japanese convenience stores, you need to collect the shopper's full name, phone number, and email. When the shopper proceeds to pay, handle the transaction depending on which convenience store they selected.

• 7-Eleven: Redirect your shopper to a 7-Eleven page where they see the voucher.
• Other Japanese convenience stores: Present the voucher.

The shopper can then take note of the voucher reference or print the voucher, and pay in cash either at 7-Eleven or other convenience stores.
