Japanese Coins - Making the Most of Your Trip Without Wasting Any Yen

Tokyo Station

When visiting another country, one of the trickiest things to get a handle on is how to use the money—especially coins! Using cards instead of cash while traveling is perhaps one of the best ways to avoid the currency struggle while traveling in most countries. However, Japan is known for being a cash society, with most people carrying more cash than cards on them. This means it may be more likely for your card not to work here or for shops to not accept cards at all! While in Japan, your safest bet might be to just conform and use cash as well to avoid any problems! While in Japan, many travelers avoid using the coins completely and stick to cash because it’s less difficult. This can quickly add up to a lot of money you could be using but is just sitting in your wallet.
