It's not the people. It's the banks.

Japan's financial system is pretty backwards, and receiving payments by credit card is much harder here than elsewhere.


I'd say Japan's system is just different. There's not a lot of countries where you can go to an ATM and pay almost any company bill. It's certainly far better a system than the US, which is positively antiquated as far a retail banking is concerned.
