How to tell which one a store has
Famima ATMs are green and are being added store by store since 1 June 2026, so a FamilyMart may still have an E-net or Japan Post Bank ATM. FamilyMart's store finder can filter stores by Famima ATM, E-net ATM and Yucho Bank ATM.
- Famima ATM plan
- About 16,000 over about 4 years, not in Okinawa, Miyazaki or Kagoshima
- E-net

Seven Bank's limits, hours and card list for Famima ATMs are the same as for its other ATMs, so this page does not repeat them: see the Seven Bank ATM guide.

- Alipay+
- WeChat Pay

We read FamilyMart's payment, ATM and service pages in Japanese and its English page for visitors, Seven Bank's page about Famima ATMs, E-net's and Japan Post Bank's pages for cards issued abroad, the Alipay+ partner list and PayPay's list of linked overseas services. FamilyMart's payment list has 25 entries; we counted a way to pay as working for visitors when it needs no Japanese bank account, card or phone number. Where the English and Japanese pages differ, we follow the Japanese page: the English ATM section names only E-net and Japan Post Bank, and it shows the PLUS, Maestro and Cirrus marks for E-net, which E-net's own page does not list.
