Mikimori Holdings Introduces Revolutionary Instant Payment System in Buyback Services

The Digital Transformation of Buyback Services

Mikimori Holdings, a company based in Chiyoda, Tokyo, under the leadership of CEO An Ryusu, has recently made a significant leap in the buyback industry. The organization is proud to announce the implementation of an innovative 'Instant Payment System' utilizing mega bank APIs. This advancement comes as Mikimori celebrates surpassing a cumulative buyback amount of 350 billion yen and leveraging celebrity ambassador Hiroshi to bolster its promotional efforts.

A Seamless Buyback Experience

The newly launched instant payment system aims to eliminate the cumbersome manual transfer processes typically involved in bank transactions. By utilizing cutting-edge technology, Mikimori is committed to providing a fast and seamless experience, where funds are transferred directly to the customer’s account immediately upon completion of the assessment.

Addressing Industry Challenges

In the traditional buyback process, there were inherent delays due to manual transaction procedures and banking hours, leading to prolonged waiting times for customers. Mikimori aims to tackle this issue head-on by integrating mega bank APIs into their system. This strategic move allows for a round-the-clock operation, ensuring that as soon as an assessment is complete, the funds are dispatched to the customer's bank account within seconds.

Overview of the 'Instant Payment' Implementation

The implementation of this system will occur in phased stages to ensure security and reliability in operations.

Phase 1: Testing Period (Current)

- Transfer Time Lag: Automatic payment within one hour after assessment
- Request Limits: Daily caps on the number of transactions to maintain operational stability
- Special Buyback Pricing: Initially set at a special rate to recover development costs and reward early adopters of the system.

Phase 2: Full Operations (Post-Testing)

- Transfer Time Lag: Immediate transfers upon completion of assessment, achievable within mere seconds to a few minutes.
- Unified Buyback Pricing: Normalization of buyback prices with no difference between standard and instant payout options, allowing all users access to the instant payment feature.

Our new instant payment system represents a groundbreaking innovation, eliminating the archaic waiting times that have plagued our industry. We are committed to providing stress-free and unparalleled convenience to all our customers while driving towards our goal of achieving an annual revenue of one trillion yen as a next-generation trading company.”
