As reported by Reuters, Tencent Holdings partnered with a Japanese social data company, Hotto Link, in a bid to popularize WeChat Pay in the country. Fortunately, many online casino sites in the Japanese market accept WeChat Pay, allowing players to deposit and withdraw funds with ease. That's because it is an international payment method. And while there are other popular payment methods, including ecoPayz, MasterCard, and Visa, WeChat's increasing popularity cannot be taken for granted. Besides being fast and secure, this payment method is becoming the go-to for many Japanese casino players for the following reasons.
It is an International Payment System
As already mentioned, WeChat Pay is based in China, but it is acceptable in Japanese. It is not exclusively meant for the Chinese population. Besides China and Japan, the method is available in tens of other countries, including Russia, the United Arab Emirates, the US, Israel, Switzerland, and the UK, to mention but a few.
Can Be Used Across Many Devices
Regardless of the device you're using to play online casino games in Japan, you can always use WeChat Pay. Do you have a BlackBerry? Then go to the BlackBerry Market and download and install WeChat App to get started. WeChat Pay is also compatible with iOS, Android, Mac, and Windows devices. Hence, the method is very convenient for Japanese casino players.
