Absolutely. This thread seems to be populated with people who think everywhere in "the west" = the USA.
I'm in Ireland and hate carrying change so I use my phone all the time to pay, I only end up going to the ATM ~ once every 2 weeks or so.
Some people working in shops aren't used to paying with phones yet but you just tell them it's the same as contactless card and it works out fine.

Ever since I've been back to the states from china, I've used the ATM only around four times in the last year. My wallet also feels much more empty given the density of $20 bills over 100 RMB notes.
