Which gift cards can I buy for Japan with crypto?
Amazon, Apple, Google Play and BookLive are the four cards for Japan, and each one credits a yen balance. Amazon reaches ¥153,397, the largest yen value we offer, while Apple and Google Play cover the two app stores with yen cards. BookLive is sold at ¥500, ¥2,000, ¥5,000 or ¥10,000.
The Japanese Apple product is listed as an App Store & iTunes card. Current Japanese terms expressly let existing App Store & iTunes balances buy eligible Apple products and content, so the card is not limited to apps.
Do Japanese gift cards need a Japanese account?
For Apple and Google Play, yes. Apple cards bought in Japan link only to an Apple Account for Japan, and the national disclosure requires users to be at least 13 and to live in Japan. On the Google side, the Japanese Play card is redeemed in yen on a Japan-registered account.
Amazon Japan is more open than most Amazon programmes. Its card works on Amazon.co.jp and also at merchants that accept the applicable Amazon Pay method, and Amazon Japan's documents set no mandatory Japanese residence rule. That is still not proof of worldwide Amazon compatibility, so plan to spend it on Amazon.co.jp or with those merchants. The region lock table compares this with other Amazon marketplaces, and a yen card can be paid with USDT on Tron.
