PayPay Corporation, a joint venture of SoftBank Group Corp., SoftBank Corp., and Yahoo Japan Corporation is pleased to announce the launch of “PayPay Pickup Debut Campaign,” in which users who make payments (*1) at eligible restaurants for take-out services (food items picked up at stores) by using our pre-order service “PayPay Pickup” are granted a 20% cashback of the payment (up to 30% for “SoftBank” or “Y!mobile” smartphone users, and Yahoo! JAPAN Premium Members) as PayPay Bonus (up to worth JPY 500/time, JPY 5,000/period) (*2). The campaign will be in place from August 17 to September 30, 2020, which will be the first-time nationwide campaign for “PayPay Pickup”.
”PayPay Pickup” is a mobile order service that PayPay has been rolled out across various areas in Japan since June, which enables users to place a take-out order with eligible restaurants wherever they are, be it from home, school, office, etc. by using the “PayPay” app, and to pick the food up without having to wait in line at the store.
Currently, there is an increasing demand for ready-made meals, including take-out services, to prevent the spread of new coronavirus infection (COVID-19). Since take-out is also recommended in the “New Lifestyle” announced by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, PayPay aims to further promote its use and contribute to the income of restaurants through this campaign – “Waku Waku PayPay, Anytime Anywhere” (August, September 2020).
In addition, a separate campaign “PayPay Jumbo in Your Town” scheduled from August 3 to 31 (*3) targeting small/medium-sized merchants designated by PayPay throughout Japan, can be enjoyed by users in conjunction. When users make a payment using cashless payment service “PayPay” at these stores (*4), a PayPay Bonus of up to 10 times (1, 000%) of the payment amount can be granted by winning the lottery (up to JPY 100, 000 per time and period) . Users who enter into both “PayPay Pickup Debut Campaign” and “PayPay Jumbo in Your Town” have a chance of winning a PayPay Bonus of up to 1, 030% (in case of winning the 1st prize of “PayPay Jumbo in Your Town”). Please check here for details on “PayPay Jumbo in Your Town”.
PayPay will strive to provide the convenience of cashless payments not just to users but also to all available retailers and service providers, aiming to bring about a world where anyone can feel safe to shop without cash, anywhere in Japan. “PayPay” will continue on the path to evolve from a “payment” app to a “super app” to provide even more convenience and enrich users’ lives, establishing “Anywhere, Anytime, PayPay.”
