πŸ“– Jalan using guide: book like a local

Jalan is Japan's biggest hotel site. Its English site has no coupons; the Japanese site does, and visitors can use them. Six steps:

  1. Open jalan.net in Chrome, let it translate

    Use the Japanese site, not jalan.net/en. Chrome's "Translate" is good enough to book.

  2. Make a free account

    Tap . Email, password, name in the Latin alphabet. No Japanese phone number needed to sign up.

  3. Claim the coupon first

    On the coupon page (we link it in every alert) press . Popular ones run out in minutes.

  4. Find your hotel

    Search the city, pick a plan, and check the coupon's rules: minimum spend, stay dates, sometimes a region.

  5. Apply it at checkout

    Open on the booking form and choose the one you claimed. The discount shows before you confirm.

  6. Pay at the hotel or online

    Many plans are (pay at the hotel), which avoids card issues. Cancellation is usually free until a few days before.

Being verified Nov 20: overseas phone number on the form, overseas Visa/Mastercard for online payment, and the exact coupon screen. Screenshots will be added here.
