Hit Corporation, based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has announced a strategic collaboration with Topwise Communication, a global leader in payment terminals located in Shenzhen, China. This partnership aims to enhance the Japanese market offerings in payment solutions, especially catering to small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs).

As part of this collaboration, Hit Corporation will launch Topwise’s next-generation smart payment terminals, the "T6 Series" and the sound box-type terminal "Q1," which will be positioned as key products for SMB strategy in Japan. This initiative promises to combine Topwise's advanced hardware with Hit Corporation's domestic support, facilitating digital transformation (DX) for stores across the country.

Official Launch at RetailTech Japan 2026

The newly developed products will make their debut at the "RetailTech Japan 2026" event, commencing on March 3, 2026, at Tokyo Big Sight. This exhibition will include demonstrations and first looks at how these devices will operate in real-world scenarios, showcasing their innovative features to attendees.

Addressing SMB Needs with Comprehensive Support

Hit Corporation prides itself on providing excellent cost performance with its hardware, alongside customized application development tailored to meet the specific needs of the SMB market. This includes a comprehensive maintenance network, "HIT Lifecycle Care," managed through their domestic repair center. The aim is to effectively generate substantial profits for local businesses by ensuring reliable operational continuity.

The need for robust maintenance solutions is pressing, particularly in Japan’s complex commercial landscape, where the flexibility of systems and stable operations are crucial for maintaining business continuity.

With this partnership, Hit Corporation integrates Topwise's globally recognized cost efficiency and technical prowess with its own expertise in application development and maintenance solutions. This trifecta of hardware, software, and support aims to provide SMBs with effective tools to thrive in an increasingly cashless economy.
