Rosen to Test Yen Stablecoin Payment in August, Netstars Launches Multi-Stablecoin Merchant Service

BlockBeats News, July 13th, Japanese convenience store operator Lawson plans to test yen-denominated stablecoin payments at the Lawson Takanawa Gateway City store in Tokyo in August. HashPort has signed an agreement with Lawson and KDDI to conduct the pilot, where participants will use the HashPort non-custodial wallet, and the store will process payments through the HashPort POS system, eliminating the need to create or manage a crypto wallet.

Japanese payment company Netstars has launched Stablecoin Pay, open for applications from merchants who wish to accept various stablecoin payments. Initially, it will support USDC, USDT, and JPYC on the Solana and Polygon networks, with wallet support for MetaMask. Merchants will be charged a payment fee of 0.98%. (Cointelegraph).
