Introduction of TwooCa

Katsu Holdings, located in Amagasaki, Hyogo, Japan, is poised to revolutionize the logistics industry by implementing the next-generation wallet, TwooCa, developed by Kort Valuta. This innovative solution aims to streamline various operations within the company, especially as the logistics sector faces a pressing labor shortage and the upcoming 2024 logistics crisis.

Background of the Implementation

Company personnel at Katsu Holdings highlighted several key challenges that necessitated this transformation:

• - Attendance Management Burden: Monthly, around 100 clock-in errors were recorded, leading to cumbersome payroll corrections and administrative loads.
• - Enhanced Security Measures: More stringent entry and exit management was critical to safeguard customer assets in their warehouses.
• - Welfare Operations Issues: Previously reliant on paper-based systems, employee engagement suffered due to limited utility for welfare benefits.

In response, Katsu Holdings introduced TwooCa in January 2025 to address these issues effectively.

Benefits of Implementing TwooCa

The results after TwooCa's integration have been promising:

• - Reduction in Clock-In Errors: By connecting the TwooCa wallet with Akerun—a sophisticated entrance management system—employees can now touch their cards to clock in automatically, minimizing clock-in errors from 100 monthly to a significant reduction.
• - Streamlined Administrative Processes: The decrease in payroll modification tasks has notably improved efficiency within the back office, contributing to broader digital transformation (DX) benefits.
• - Enhanced Welfare Recognition: Katsu’s culture of gratitude now thrives, transitioning from a paper-based operation to a digital platform where employees can exchange points accrued through expressions of thanks. These points can be converted into electronic money for practical use, further boosting employee satisfaction and engagement.

Leadership Insights

Yoshika Iwasaki, Head of Human Resources at Katsu Holdings, expressed that the ability to resolve multiple issues with a single card was instrumental in their decision to adopt TwooCa. Initial concerns regarding the adaptation of their sizable workforce were addressed through thorough informational sessions, facilitating a smoother rollout than expected.

Currently, Katsu is not only focused on attendance and security but is also looking to expand TwooCa's applications for cafeteria payments and internal communications—essentially cultivating a vital internal infrastructure.
