Yes. Apple Pay works at 7-Eleven Japan. Choose the Credit Card icon at the till and hold your iPhone over the reader.
Contactless payment cannot be used when the total is 10,001 yen or more, so pay a bigger total by inserting the card. A Suica or PASMO in Apple Pay pays with the Transportation IC Card icon instead (checked 17 October 2026).
How to pay with Apple Pay at 7-Eleven
- On the screen at the till, choose the Credit Card icon. There is no separate Apple Pay button.
- Hold your iPhone or Apple Watch over the card reader.
- For a total of 10,001 yen or more, insert the card itself into the PIN pad instead.
