With this integration, users in 173 countries (excluding Japan) can use various payment methods including credit cards (VISA, Mastercard), Apple Pay, and Google Pay to obtain JOC Coin instantly and effortlessly, without relying on traditional exchanges.
By enabling fiat-to-crypto conversions into the Japan Open Chain ecosystem, Alchemy Pay helps users:

As Web3 converges with traditional financial systems and users worldwide demand instant, direct access to digital assets, enabling the acquisition of JOC Coin through everyday payment methods elevates JOC as a "globally accessible, enterprise-ready blockchain."
This is not just a service launch—it's a major leap forward in positioning JOC as "the chain of choice" for real-world applications, regulated digital finance, and the mass adoption wave that lies ahead.
