| Sep 16, 2019 at 0:29 | comment | added | Taladris | @FranckDernoncourt: so that seems to answer (partially) the question. I have never been to Hakodate airport but, in my experience in Japan (8 visits, in Tokyo, Osaka, Fukushima, Okinawa, Tsushima,...), I have never had any problem with a Mastercard with ATMs that displayed the logo. The problem is to find an ATM that displays the Mastercard logo. They are not that common, even in large, touristy, commercial areas. It seems that post offices usually accept Mastercards. | |

| Sep 15, 2019 at 20:54 | comment | added | Franck Dernoncourt | @Taladris visa and MasterCard logos were both present on the ATM | |
| Sep 15, 2019 at 17:44 | comment | added | mkennedy | One of the sentences on the ATM slip translates to: Cannot read the card's magnetic data. | |
| Sep 15, 2019 at 15:32 | comment | added | simon at rcl | @fkraiem Purely anecdotal, but some widely-available datasets used to train Machine Learning systems about credit card fraud show that a leading indicator of fraud is US nationality with age under mid-twenties.. | |
| Sep 15, 2019 at 14:56 | comment | added | Taladris | Stupid question but there were no card companies logo (Visa, MasterCard,...) on the ATM? | |
| Sep 15, 2019 at 6:03 | comment | added | fkraiem | Sadly no, it seems almost random... US cards do seem to be more often problematic than, say, European ones, however. | |
| Sep 15, 2019 at 5:44 | comment | added | Franck Dernoncourt | @fkraiem thanks for the information. Any idea what factor can make it a hit? | |
| Sep 15, 2019 at 5:01 | comment | added | fkraiem | The second ATM is from Hokkaido Bank (北海道銀行); ATMs of regional banks rarely (never?) take foreign cards. The Aeon one supposedly does, but those things are very hit-and-miss. | |
