Excuse me, is mobile payment accepted?

Romaji: Sumimasen, mobairu kessai wa kanō desu ka? / Reply Romaji: Mōshiwake gozaimasen, genkin nomi no toriatsukai to natte orimasu.

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.
