TOKYO, Nov. 11 (Xinhua) — Troubles with credit card payments at supermarkets, convenience stores, and transportation hubs were reported across Japan on Saturday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Customers across the country have experienced difficulties in completing credit card transactions at popular retail outlets, JR stations and other locations since Saturday evening, reported multiple credit card companies.<\/p>\n

According to the companies, the problem stems from a malfunction in the system operated by Japan Card Network, a service company responsible for managing the country’s credit card payment system.<\/p>\n

The East Japan Railway reported that due to the system failure, credit cards since around 6 p.m. local time have not been functioning at ticket vending machines, ticket counters, and station building stores within the JR East network, including the bustling Tokyo Station.<\/p>\n

The detailed cause of the system failure is not yet known, with investigations underway, according to the credit card companies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
