Bonus Just Declined Your Card
To say pay in one lump sum in Japanese, say 一括払い (ikkatsu-barai).
You hit the button that says bonus. That's why the card machine just beeped at the whole line.
一括払い
ikkatsu-barai
pay in one lump sum
In this video
- 一括払いでお願いします。 Ikkatsu-barai de onegai shimasu. One lump sum, please.
Why this phrase
Konbini counter, right after the tap. Hana plays the clerk. Kōfuku plays the tourist who taps the bonus key. Bonus is a Japanese pay-later plan, not a perk, and a foreign card usually clears only on 一括払い, one lump sum. The line hears the beep.
