| + | =Step 1: Purchase DMM Money= |
| + | Since mid-2022, DMM services do not accept most foreign credit/debit cards, especially Mastercard ones. |
| + | *It is therefore recommended to use either: |
| + | **DMM credit card, for Japan only, which gives a 10% free point bonus on purchase, |
| + | **Compatible credit cards, such as some Visa ones, which give a 1% free point bonus on purchase, |
| + | **PayPal, which can bypass most credit cards limitations, |
| + | **DMM point cards, which are items that give a code to be activated on the DMM website, being available in Japan and on some websites. |
| + | |
| + | As DMM credit cards and DMM point cards are mostly limited to Japan only, this guide only covers the PayPal and Credit Card options. |
