Kirifuda Launches Comprehensive Online Payment Support
Kirifuda Inc., based in Chuo-ku, Tokyo, is excited to announce the launch of its
Online Payment Support Package starting from April 21, 2026. Leveraging the growing interest in stablecoin utilization by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, this package aims to assist businesses from conceptualization to implementation of next-generation payment systems, including JPYC stablecoin. The service will help navigate requirements, design payment flows, and facilitate operational readiness for both LINE mini-apps and other platforms.
Growing Market for Stablecoins in Japan
In recent years, stablecoins have emerged as a viable solution for reducing volatility in digital transactions while providing global, immediate payment options on blockchain platforms. These digital currencies are rapidly gaining traction for applications in international remittances, B2B transactions, online payments, and securities settlements, notably in scenarios where traditional infrastructures are often limited by costs or inefficiencies. In Japan, the recent amendments to financial settlement laws are paving the way for enhanced stablecoin utilization, with the JPYC launch anticipated in 2025. This is fostering an environment where government bodies and financial institutions are exploring practical implementations of stablecoin technology.
However, to successfully integrate stablecoins as a practical payment option, businesses must address several crucial areas: the distinction of stablecoins in the payment ecosystem, integration with existing e-commerce and membership systems, governance and compliance measures, and operational responsibilities. Adopting stablecoins is not merely about adding a new payment tool; it requires a strategic approach to ensure functional and sustainable implementation.
Kirifuda's Holistic Support Approach
With a track record of developing LINE mini-apps and non-custodial wallets, Kirifuda has created an ecosystem that effectively integrates NFT distribution and sales alongside other token functionalities within the LINE platform. The core philosophy is to create seamless user experiences within familiar communication channels, supporting marketing, CRM, and fan community initiatives directly.
Kirifuda is now focusing on solutions utilizing JPYC for both online and physical stores. They are addressing key questions such as, "What kind of payment flow and UI will facilitate easier operations?" and offering designs that not only improve the payment experience but are also compatible with existing sales and accounting systems, preventing the initiative from being seen as just a 'Proof of Concept.'
By analyzing market conditions and drawing from their extensive experience, Kirifuda is committed to enabling businesses to adopt next-generation payment solutions tailored to their unique customer bases. The support package covers everything from concept development and requirements gathering to UI/UX design, system integration, and operational readiness.
Government Support for Stablecoin Implementation
The launch of this support package aligns with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's
Stablecoin Social Implementation Promotion Subsidy, which began accepting applications on April 17, 2026. This subsidy offers financial support up to 40 million yen per project, covering roughly two-thirds of eligible expenses such as external infrastructure utilization and system development.
Businesses interested in using Japanese yen-denominated stablecoins in their operations are encouraged to apply for these subsidies. It's important to note that while issuing stablecoins domestically is not eligible for subsidies, projects that create usable cases through third-party issuance are welcome.
