MynaWallet Secures Significant Seed Funding for Future Growth

MynaWallet Inc., headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has successfully raised 200 million yen in a seed funding round. This funding was made possible through third-party allotment from key investors including gmjp holdings and Coincheck Group N.V. The investment is set to enhance MynaWallet's offerings, which include a digital wallet leveraging the My Number Card system, a key component of Japan's digital infrastructure.

Background of the Fundraising

The digital landscape in Japan is evolving rapidly, and MynaWallet is at the forefront of this transformation. With the My Number Card—widely adopted by approximately 100 million people in Japan—serving as the backbone for its services, MynaWallet aims to create a seamless financial ecosystem. Their digital wallet not only facilitates transactions with ease but also aligns with the growing trend of stablecoins and cryptocurrency adoption.

This funding marks a significant milestone for MynaWallet as the company strives to increase the circulation of financial values, making it accessible to everyone, from children to the elderly, in an uncomplicated manner. As Web3 services gain traction, MynaWallet plans to allocate the new funds towards strengthening its product team and enhancing service deployment.
