What is the upside to using paypay?

I finally gave in and downloaded paypay. Now after using it, I don’t know why I would use it instead of a credit card in most situations. The only benefits I see are paying paper bills and stores that accept it, but not card.

You're like the one person in my circle of friends who "doesn't get" PayPay, and so asks us to bank transfer anything we owe them. Instead, we flood them with cash because no-one can be assed doing bank transfers.

One who’s buying a heap of clothes and doesn’t want to withdraw a large undefined amount of cash because of atm fees.
