申し訳ございません、現金のみの取り扱いとなっております。
もうしわけございません、げんきんのみのとりあつかいとなっております。
We apologize, but we only accept cash.
Gesture & etiquette
Hold up your smartphone, possibly showing a payment app icon.
Do not demand cashless payment if they only accept cash. Always carry some Japanese yen in cash, especially when visiting smaller shops or rural areas.
