In response to the diversification of payment needs worldwide and the continued growth of cashless payments in Japan, all payments at Tokyo Marathon EXPO 2027 will be fully cashless.
This initiative will be implemented with the support of Mastercard, the Global Marketing Partner and Official Payment Partner of Tokyo Marathon 2027, which marks the 20th edition of the Tokyo Marathon.
The initiative aims to provide runners and visitors from Japan and overseas with a richer and more seamless experience while creating a more convenient and comfortable event environment.
Cash will not be accepted for official merchandise purchases or payments at exhibitor booths. A range of cashless payment methods will be available, including credit cards, debit cards, prepaid cards, and smartphone payments.
Please bring a cashless payment method when visiting the EXPO.
Available payment methods may vary by exhibitor. Please check the information displayed at each booth for details.
This initiative aims to create a smoother, safer, and more convenient environment for both visitors and exhibitors by reducing payment times and the burdens and risks associated with handling cash.
It will also make it easier for international visitors to use familiar payment methods without needing to prepare cash or exchange currency, while contributing to the continued expansion of cashless payments in Japan.
