We (at MakeLeaps) integrated Stripe as an option in our SaaS product for small businesses in Japan pretty much as soon as it became available in beta. Our users can send Japanese invoices and have them paid through Stripe. We just flipped on multi-currency support when they launched it in beta and it was done in a day.
They've been rolling out features to close the gap in functionality with the US product and working really closely with us. Daniel and their team has been great to work with and having local support staff is really important in this market. So yeah, we're fans.
Compared to how difficult it can be for our customers to get up and running with other payment providers and how quickly they can get paid out, Stripe has the potential to be a big influence on the payments space in Japan.
BTW, if you know anyone running a business in Japan and want a bilingual back-office that is easily integrated with Stripe, just look us up!
