Lawson Plans Tokyo Stablecoin Checkout Trial - Crypto Economy
HashPort said July 13 that it signed a basic agreement with KDDI and Lawson on July 10 to run a Tokyo store checkout trial using a Japanese-yen stablecoin in August 2026. The test is planned for Lawson Takanawa Gateway City, making stablecoin payments a controlled convenience-store checkout experiment rather than a public rollout.
The trial will use HashPort Wallet as the user payment method and HashPort Wallet for Biz for store-side processing, allowing stablecoin payments through the normal POS without Lawson opening or managing a wallet. Participants are limited to some employees and related parties from HashPort, Lawson and KDDI, so the near-term focus is integration quality, not customer acquisition.
HashPort said the demonstration will examine POS system-linkage requirements, register operations, payment time and wallet usability. The practical next step is whether the August test produces enough operational evidence for broader consideration, because checkout speed and merchant workflow will determine whether the model can move beyond proof of concept.
