Starbucks Digital Money

Starbucks Japan has offered prepaid cards in Japan for some years, but they are now also offering payment via a smartphone app. It appears that registration and charging the card are done online and payment is conducted on the same IC card reader as used for the prepaid cards. This payment system uses mobile wallet technology available in most smartphones and some other phones in Japan. スターパックス
