That would definitely be a PayPay or Suica purchase for me.
Aiming to retire at 60 and live for a while longer. 95% index funds (eMaxis Slim etc), 5% Japanese dividend stocks.

unsolicited advice ahead:
SMBC has free intra-bank transfer. and its very convenient through their mobile app.
If you can switch things up, give it a try.
I'd love to but.......not worth the hassle. I'll just swallow what I learnt, and keep it for next time.
