PayPay expands digital wage payment system in Japan
PayPay, a mobile payment service linked to SoftBank Group, has broadened its digital wage payment system in Japan.
Initially launched in September for SoftBank Group employees, the service is now accessible to other companies after receiving government approval.
The Japanese government recently lifted a ban on digital wage payments due to the rise in cashless transactions.
The labor ministry has granted authorization for PayPay to operate within this field. Employers using the service must obtain consent from employee labor groups.
