- Users can get an additional PayPay Bonus at stores that give reward points of 5% of a payment under the Point Reward Project for Consumers using Cashless Payment -

PayPay Corporation (“PayPay Corp.”, “we”), a joint venture of SoftBank Group Corp., SoftBank Corp., and Yahoo Japan Corporation will launch a Second Machikado PayPay campaign from December 1, 2019 through January 31, 2020.

The Machikado PayPay campaign is a unique campaign run by PayPay Corp. in relation to the Point Reward Project for Consumers using Cashless Payment (“Point Reward Project”) (*1) and aimed at encouraging users to enjoy shopping with advantages at stores that give reward points of 5% of a payment under the Point Reward Project (*2).

PayPay Corp. is currently running the First Machikado PayPay campaign (from October 1, 2019 through November 30, 2019) that gives an additional PayPay Bonus of 5% of a payment using PayPay at stores that give point rewards of 5% of a payment under the Point Reward Project. Moreover, we will launch the Second Machikado PayPay campaign under which, with a probability of once in 20 times, users get a PayPay Bonus worth up to 1,000 yen for a payment at stores that give point rewards of 5% of a payment under the Point Reward Project (*2).

When users win this campaign, they will be given the full amount of their payment for a purchase if the payment is 1,000 yen or less (*2) and at the same time will be given reward points of 5% of the payment under the Point Reward Project. Accordingly, the users will be given PayPay Bonuses whose amount is higher than the amount they paid and will be able to enjoy shopping with more advantages.

PayPay Corp. will continue to provide the convenience of smartphone payments to all retailers, service providers, and users, aiming to achieve a society where they can do cashless shopping anywhere in Japan.
