Cashless Payments Now Accepted: Ride Smart with Inari Kotsu!

Have you ever hesitated to take a taxi, wondering, “Can I pay with my card?

In rural areas like Okayama, many transportation companies still accept only cash, making it inconvenient for travelers who prefer cashless options. At Inari Kotsu, we aim to provide a more comfortable and convenient ride by accepting a wide range of cashless payment methods.


✅ Available Payment Methods (As of October 2025)
・Credit Cards (VISA, MasterCard, JCB, AMEX, Diners)
・IC Cards (ICOCA, Suica, PASMO, etc.)
・QR Payments (PayPay, d-payment, LINE Pay, Rakuten Pay, au PAY, etc.)
・E-money (iD, QUICPay)
・Taxi Tickets / Welfare Vouchers
・PayPal (by advance arrangement only)

PayPal is especially popular with international guests, and we are proud to be one of the very few transportation companies in Okayama to offer this option.

✅ Why We Embrace Cashless Payment
１．Inbound and Tourism Demand
With the growth in international visitors to events like the Setouchi Triennale, many now expect card and QR payment options.

２．Stress-Free for Elderly & Families
No need to fumble for change — just tap and go.

３．Business Users Welcome
We can issue proper receipts and PDF “fare payment certificates” for business expense claims.

４．Adaptation to Modern Lifestyles
More people are going wallet-free. We believe taxis should adapt too.

✅ Please Note
・Cashless payments generate “Statements” rather than formal “Receipts” because there's no cash transaction.

・If you need a formal receipt, we can issue a PDF Fare Payment Certificate via email — please request in advance.

We aim to be your most convenient and reliable ride partner in Okayama — whether you pay with cash or contactless.
