Using Credit Card in Japan...

[gem2niki]

From experience, what Credit Card company doesn't charge fee or too much fee if you use it in Japan or any overseas country D:?

I think it's about time I get a credit card haha.... (uses debit)

dont bother using a credit card in japan except at really big places, most places dont take cc. japan is a cash society. i learned this the hard way. if you're travelling, bring travelers checks. i never spent a weekend in tokyo without at least around 50000 yen on me~

when friends came to visit me, those that didnt bring cash brought a citibank card. there are citibanks in the larger cities in japan that you can withdraw cash from. im not sure what the fee is, though.
