Exciting Cashback Offer for First-Time povo 2.0 Users
KDDI and Okinawa Cellular have rolled out a special promotion for their mobile service, povo 2.0, aimed at enticing new customers with an attractive cashback offer. From May 1 to May 31, 2025, customers purchasing a 1-year topping for the first time—or specifically, a topping that offers at least 48GB—will receive an au PAY balance equivalent to 10% of their purchase price. This initiative, named the “1-Year Topping Debut Discount,” is designed to reward fresh users and encourage them to explore the expansive offerings of the povo service.
Promotion Details
The promotion applies specifically to selected 1-year toppings, with the cashback benefits varying based on the chosen plan. Here’s a breakdown of the available options:
| Data Plan | Cost (Tax Included) | Cashback Amount | Effective Cost Per Month |
|---|
| ----- | ----- | ---- | ------- |
| 60GB (365 Days) | ¥13,200 | ¥1,320 | ¥990 |
| 120GB (365 Days) | ¥21,600 | ¥2,160 | ¥1,620 |
| 300GB (365 Days) | ¥24,800 | ¥2,480 | ¥1,860 |
| 360GB (365 Days) | ¥26,400 | ¥2,640 | ¥1,980 |
| 999GB (365 Days) | ¥37,800 | ¥3,780 | ¥2,835 |
The cashback will be credited to a customer’s account by the end of the month following the purchase. This means that if you make an eligible purchase in May, you can expect your bonus to be added by the end of June.
Eligibility Criteria
To take advantage of this exciting offer, customers must meet certain requirements:
1. You must not have previously purchased a 48GB or more 1-year topping before your current purchase.
2. Ensure you have linked your povo account with your au ID before completing the topping purchase.
3. You need to activate the use of au PAY with your au ID prior to receiving the cashback benefits.
This promotion is available for a limited time only and is limited to one redemption per line. In cases where multiple topping purchases are made, the higher cashback amount will be applied. It’s also important to note that povo’s data-only plans are not eligible for this promotion, and customers cannot combine this offer with the 'Honki Waribiki' discount scheme.
Conclusion

As the telecommunications landscape evolves, initiatives like the “1-Year Topping Debut Discount” not only serve to reward customer loyalty but also encourage more people to join the growing number of users on the povo platform. If you’re considering switching to povo 2.0 or are a first-time customer, this promotional period represents an excellent opportunity to maximize your value.
