I asked a bunch of WL’s during a group session if they’d pay me. The joke didn’t register. Not even a laugh.
So what else are you to do with them?

I assumed it would not be carry on and would be checked in. The girl I was talking to had been in Australia for 2 years and had done it 4 times, not declaring leaving Australia and not declaring back in Japan in order to avoid questions and paying taxes
Don’t know if she put it into the bank in Japan or kept it stashed at her parents place but I’d assume that they have similar laws to us in money laundering so if she put it into the bank she could not put over a certain amount at once
The thing that freaked me out was that she room shared and I was like, but if you room share won’t that person possibly steal the money from you as she said she kept the money in her room but that was when she told me that all the girls in her house were in the Mirage / Platinum / Mystic group which kind of made sense. She said they pared up based on rosters so that when one girl was working the other had the room
I agree that it is much more cash based than Australia but they have PayPay and I noted a massive difference between staying October 2025 and March 2026 in that in those 4-5 months every store I went to in Tokyo, apart from one, had converted to accepting touchless card payments.
Granted, I was staying in Minato-ku so that’s like comparing the Sydney CBD and Eastern suburbs to the whole of Australia but it was such a notable difference.
I went to one Men’s Esthe and payment was all card, no cash which surprised me
