Guide to Repaying Your AEON CARD Cash Advance at Convenience Store ATMs
About Early Repayment of Revolving Cash Advance at Convenience Store ATMs
With AEON CARD, you can choose either a one-time payment or revolving payments for cash advances. The balance of your revolving payments can be paid off early at a convenience store ATM without waiting for the monthly debit. This allows you to reduce the amount of interest you pay.
Convenience Stores and Fees for ATM Repayment
Repay Anytime Fee-Free at AEON Bank ATMs
At AEON Bank ATMs, located in places like Ministop, you can make early repayments for revolving cash advances free of charge. This is the most cost-effective way to repay.
Repayment Availability at Other Partner Convenience Store ATMs
Early repayments are also possible at Lawson Bank ATMs and E-net ATMs, but just like with borrowing, an ATM usage fee (¥110 for ¥10,000 or less, ¥220 for over ¥10,000) will be charged. Seven Bank ATMs located in 7-Eleven do not support repayments.
ATM Repayment Procedures and Important Notes
- Select “Credit Card” from the ATM menu.
- Insert your card and enter your PIN.
- Select a button such as “Repayment” or “Deposit”.
- Follow the on-screen instructions and insert bills for the amount you wish to repay.
- Confirm the details and receive your card and transaction receipt.
Repayable Amounts and Units
Repayments at ATMs can be made in units of ¥1,000. Since ATMs do not accept coins, you cannot make a full repayment that includes an amount less than ¥1,000. If you wish to make a full repayment including change, you will need to do so via bank transfer.
Timing for Repayment Information to Be Reflected and Credit Line Restoration
Information on repayments made at an ATM is usually reflected in your available credit limit after 2-4 business days. Be aware that your limit will not be restored immediately if you plan to use the service again soon.

Important Information and Cautions for Using AEON CARD at Convenience Store ATMs
Checking Your Cash Advance Limit and Applying for an Increase
To use the cash advance service, a “cash advance credit limit” must be set in advance. You can check your current limit on the members-only website “Kurashi-no-Money Site” or the official app “AEON WALLET.” If your limit is ¥0, you cannot use the service. You can also apply for a credit limit increase through Kurashi-no-Money Site, but this is subject to a prescribed screening process.
Per-Transaction and Daily ATM Withdrawal Limits
In addition to the AEON CARD’s own cash advance limit, each ATM has its own per-transaction limit. For example, there may be a restriction, such as being able to withdraw only up to ¥200,000 at a time. If you wish to make a larger transaction, you will need to do so in multiple steps.
Cash Advance Interest Rate (Annual Percentage Rate) and How to Calculate Interest
The cash advance interest rate for AEON CARD ranges from 7.8% to 18.0% APR, determined by a screening process. Interest is calculated on a daily basis using the following formula:
Interest = Amount Borrowed × Annual Percentage Rate ÷ 365 days × Number of Days Used
The number of days used is the period from the day after the borrowing date to the payment date (or early repayment date).
How to Inquire/Reset Your PIN If You Forget It
A 4-digit PIN is required to use the cash advance service. If you forget it, you can request an inquiry through “Kurashi-no-Money Site.” After the procedure, a document containing your PIN will be mailed to your registered address. With AEON CARD, you can also change (reset) your PIN through Kurashi-no-Money Site or Tele-unser (automated voice response service).
Possible Reasons and Solutions If You Cannot Use Cash Advance
If you are unable to use cash advance at an ATM, the following reasons are possible:
・The cash advance credit limit has not been set or has been exceeded.
・Your card is locked due to entering the wrong PIN multiple times.
・The card’s magnetic stripe is faulty or the IC chip is damaged.
・It is during system maintenance hours for the ATM or AEON CARD.
・Your card payments are overdue.
First, check your usage status on Kurashi-no-Money Site or AEON WALLET. If the issue is not resolved, please contact the AEON CARD Call Center.
