A payment method that anyone can use
by paying at major convenience stores nationwide
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 of CVS payments
1. Improve customer convenience
2. Avoid risk of uncollected payments
3. Real-time payment notifications
CVS payments are the most popular payment method after credit card payments when shopping online.
With CVS payments, customers do not have to enter long credit numbers during payment, and can pay later at the convenience store of their choice at any time, 24 hours a day. That is why they can be used safely and conveniently by younger customers who do not have credit cards and customers who may prefer not to enter their card information online.

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.
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.
In this diagram, we describe the flow of CVS payments.
*Refunds are not supported.
*The maximum payment amount per transaction is 299,999 yen. For payments of 50,000 yen or more, stamp duties are required.
In addition, when making contracts with each convenience store in-house, you must deal with applications and accounting processes for each, but by contracting through us, consolidation is possible.
You can introduce payments for all major convenience stores (Seven-Eleven, Lawson, FamilyMart, Ministop, Seicomart) at once.
With CVS payments, customers can easily make payments 24 hours a day at major convenience stores nationwide.
