Japan Gets Easier Access to Crypto: PayPay Integrates with Binance

Japan’s cryptocurrency scene is getting a major upgrade thanks to the collaboration between PayPay, a mobile payment giant backed by SoftBank, and Binance Japan. The integration allows users to buy and withdraw crypto directly from their PayPay Money balance, making it one of the most user-friendly fiat on-ramps in the country. This move comes after PayPay acquired 40% ownership of Binance Japan in October 2025.
