Trifa App Expands Payment Options with Convenience Store Payments

The Trifa app, developed by Trifa Inc., has recently introduced a new payment option that allows users to purchase eSIMs via convenience store payments. For individuals who either do not have credit cards or prefer to use cash for their transactions, this feature enhances accessibility significantly. This latest venture caters to the diverse preferences of users who are looking for convenient ways to access overseas data services while traveling.

Background on Trifa's Evolution

Since its launch, Trifa has primarily relied on cashless payment methods including credit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and PayPay. However, feedback from users showed a strong demand for a solution accommodating those who either do not possess credit cards or wish to make payments using cash. In response to these requests, Trifa now supports payments through various convenience stores across Japan.

Overview of Convenience Store Payments

Trifa users can now purchase eSIMs by selecting the “Convenience Store Payment” option within the app. The process is straightforward:
1. Select: Choose “Convenience Store Payment” while placing an order in the app.
2. Pay: Head to the terminals or counters at participating stores to complete the payment.
3. Receive: Once the payment is successfully made, the eSIM will be automatically issued to the user’s device.

Participating Stores

Trifa’s new payment feature is available in several convenience store chains across Japan, including:

- Lawson
- FamilyMart
- MiniStop
- Seicomart

Note: Payments must be made in Japanese yen, and a transaction fee of 200 yen (tax included) will apply when utilizing this service.

What is the Trifa App?

Trifa is an overseas eSIM application that allows users to easily access internet services in over 200 countries and regions worldwide. It simplifies the previously cumbersome process of renting WiFi devices or purchasing and swapping local SIM cards. By using just this app, users can enjoy hassle-free communication while abroad.

Being one of the top downloaded eSIM applications in Japan and holding a prominent position in domestic travel category rankings, Trifa has established itself as a trusted choice for travelers seeking efficient connectivity solutions.

Understanding eSIM Technology

An eSIM, short for embedded SIM, is a digital SIM card integrated into smartphones, eliminating the need for a physical card to access mobile networks. This advanced technology allows for seamless switching between various mobile service providers, making it ideal for travelers.

According to the Sensor Tower analysis of downloads between May 2024 to April 2025, Trifa stands as the number one eSIM app for travel in Japan, based on average download rates within the travel app category.
