Idemitsu Celebrates Milestone with Exciting Summer Campaign
In a remarkable achievement, Idemitsu Kosan Co., Ltd. has announced that its official app, Drive On, has surpassed 15 million downloads, a significant milestone for the company. To celebrate this accomplishment, Idemitsu will launch a special campaign giving away free Garigari-kun soda tickets to the first one million users who meet certain conditions. The campaign is set to run from August 1 to August 31, 2026.
The Drive On app is designed to enhance customers' automotive experiences by providing coupons for fuel and car maintenance, easy reservation options, and mobile payment functionalities. With over 15 million downloads as of July 2026, the app has been well-received by its users, boasting high ratings on both the App Store (4.4) and Google Play (4.3).
During this summer campaign, customers who use the Drive On app to check-in while fueling up with 15 liters or more of gasoline or diesel at participating apollostation service stations will be eligible to receive a free Garigari-kun soda ticket. This refreshing treat aims to provide a cool respite for travelers and those heading off on summer vacations, making their driving experience even more enjoyable.
To participate in this exciting campaign, users must possess a My Idemitsu ID and check in on the Drive On app after fueling. It’s important to note that the tickets will only be available until supplies last, with each customer able to receive up to two tickets. Additionally, the tickets can be redeemed at Lawson convenience stores across the country, making it incredibly convenient for winners to enjoy their cool treat.
Idemitsu aims for this campaign to serve as a way for customers to enjoy the thrill of their summer road trips while experiencing the joy of saving on fuel with the Drive On app. The rise in interest in pre-cooling strategies, a practice to refresh oneself before heading out in the heat, inspired this giveaway. By offering Garigari-kun soda, Idemitsu hopes to create moments of enjoyment for their customers during their travels.
With its slogan “Various a! for this community,” Idemitsu continues to broaden its horizons in the mobility sector. Leveraging the large network of apollostation service stations, the company plans to enhance customer engagement through the Drive On app while offering a diverse range of mobility services beyond just fuel supply.
The campaign encapsulates the spirit of summer adventure and customer appreciation. With an increasing number of users benefiting from the app, Idemitsu remains committed to fostering innovations in mobility that bring new value to its customers.
