CVS Payment

What are CVS payments?

CVS payments are payment services that allow customers to pay for products or services purchased on your e-commerce site
at major convenience stores nationwide using a specific number issued at the time of purchase.​

3 Benefits

2. Avoiding risk of uncollected payments

With CVS payments, you can ship products after they have been paid for, allowing you to avoid the risk of uncollected payments. In addition, because it is a prepaid form of payment, chargebacks due to unauthorized use are unlikely to occur as with credit card payments, reducing risk for your business.

3. Real-time payment notifications

Once a customer pays at the convenience store, we will notify you of the payment in real time.​ ​
You can provide your customers with smooth service.
