 Seven Bank (セブン銀行) is a bank in [[Japan]] that is an interesting hybrid bank between physical and online presence. Functionally, it is accessed using 7-11 ATMs throughout Japan, and online banking. One of the unique appeals it has is that it offers a JCB debit card, in theory, without needing to be a resident for 6 months, like [[Sony Bank]]. It also offers free ATM cash withdrawals during business hours, has a fully English-supported app and ATM interface, and generally speaking is widely available throughout Japan. Seven Bank (セブン銀行) is a bank in [[Japan]] that is an interesting hybrid bank between physical and online presence.

   * Applying for online banking was pretty simple -- just required visiting an ATM and scanning a QR code. The process of doing this was very simple and straightforward. Everything is in English.   * Applying for online banking was pretty simple -- just required visiting an ATM and scanning a QR code. The process of doing this was very simple and straightforward.

   * There are two apps for authentication on mobile -- the My 7Bank app for Japanese Language users and the international money transfer app for English speakers. It seems both are setup independently. In other words, if you want to use the Japanese version of the online banking site, you need the Japanese app, and vice versa. The English and Japanese apps have wildly different designs, and the Japanese app is far better in terms of design aesthetics.   * There are two apps for authentication on mobile -- the My 7Bank app for Japanese Language users and the international money transfer app for English speakers.
