T Point Japan Co., Ltd.
--The supermarket version of DX has begun in the era of new lifestyles and smart living!--
T Point Japan Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Nagashima Hiroaki; hereinafter referred to as "T Point Japan"), together with Maruetsu Inc. (Headquarters: Toshima-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Furuse Ryota; hereinafter referred to as "Maruetsu"), will launch the "Mobile T Card" which can be used at Maruetsu stores from Friday, February 26, 2021.
The "Mobile T Card" is a service that allows you to earn and use T Points by presenting the barcode screen displayed on your smartphone when paying, and allows you to use the same services as a T Card without contact. We have received many requests from Maruetsu customers regarding the use of the Mobile T Card, and we will now be launching the service at all Maruetsu, Maruetsu Petit, and Lincos stores. Customers using the Maruetsu Flyer App can use the app by tapping "Click here for Mobile T Card!" at the top of the screen and registering their Mobile T Card.
Maruetsu and T-Point Japan are planning and developing new shopping services for new lifestyles and smart lives, and are promoting DX (digital transformation) in supermarkets. In addition to the launch of the Mobile T Card, Maruetsu will also begin offering Scan & Go Ignica, which allows customers to register products and make payments using their smartphones without having to wait in line at the register, from Friday, February 26th, and Online Delivery Ignica, which allows customers to easily order and have fresh food and daily necessities delivered from their smartphones or computers, from Thursday, March 4th. These services allow customers to accumulate and use T Points at select stores where these services are available. "Scan & Go Ignica" and "Online Delivery Ignica" will be gradually expanded in the future, providing a contactless, safe and smooth shopping environment.
To commemorate the launch of Mobile T Card at Maruetsu, we will be running a campaign from Friday, February 26th to Sunday, February 28th where you can earn five times the T Points when you shop with a T Card or Mobile T Card.
Maruetsu and T Point Japan will continue to provide services that transform the needs that arise in this new lifestyle into customer value, aiming to provide a fun and safe shopping experience for many customers.
