This is Riii.

In this issue, I will explain how the Shinjuku City Government’s “Ganbarou! Shinjuku Support Campaign,” which is a campaign by Shinjuku City to save money with cashless payment.

Ganbarou! Shinjuku Support Campaign

What is the Shinjuku Support Campaign?

This is a special campaign run by Shinjuku City, where you can get up to 25% points back if you make a cashless payment with PayPay, Rakuten Pay, d-pay, or auPay at participating stores in Shinjuku City.

However, there are some products and services that are not eligible for this campaign, so please check with the store for details.

Purchases of items similar to money certificates (stamps, stamps, postcards, QUO cards, various types of gift certificates, etc.), courier fees, utility bill payments, storage agency services, and various types of electronic money recharges and purchases are not covered.

Which stores are eligible?

Eligible stores are small and medium-sized businesses and individual stores in the retail, restaurant, and service industries in Shinjuku City that have introduced one of the four cashless payment methods mentioned above.

Eligible stores will have campaign posters and stickers in their stores during the campaign period.

How long is the campaign?

September 1, 2022 (Thursday) – September 30, 2022 (Friday)

The campaign will end when the maximum redemption amount (500 million yen equivalent) is reached, even during the campaign period.

What is the maximum grant limit?

There are four payment providers (PayPay, Rakuten Pay, d-pay, and auPay), and the maximum amount of reward is 2,000 yen per payment per payment provider, up to a total of 5,000 yen during the period.

What this means is.

  • You can get up to 8,000 yen per purchase and get 2,000 yen back in points when you spend 8,000 yen.
  • If you make a purchase of 8,000 yen, you will receive 2,000 yen back in points.

Since this is per payment provider, if you use all four payment providers’ 25% reduction eligibility, you can get 25% reduction on up to 80,000 yen of purchases and get 20,000 yen back in points.

This is a great deal.

When are the redeemed points awarded? What is the expiration date?

PayPay will grant PayPay points 30 days after the day following the payment. Points will not expire.

Rakuten Pay will grant Rakuten Points by the end of November. Points will not expire.

auPay points will be credited to your au PAY balance by the end of October. Points will not expire.

d-pay is scheduled to grant d-points until around the end of October. Points will not expire.

PayPay seems to be the fastest way to get points. Rakuten seems to take the longest time to receive points.

Information on stores that are actually running the campaign

I actually walked around Shinjuku Station and surveyed stores with campaign posters. I also introduced some restaurants where I actually ate and drank.

Butaboru Shinjuku

I entered this restaurant for lunch.

The restaurant is located toward the west exit of Shinjuku Station and was open for lunch.

All lunch menus are available for less than 1,000 yen.

Moreover, 90% of the customers were men in suits, as they were served a hearty meal with free refills of rice and miso soup.

I had the Karaage set meal, which was crispy and the meat was tender and delicious.

I think this restaurant is great for smokers because you can smoke here.

The only payment method that was applicable to the campaign was PayPay.

We actually had mango shaved ice at this restaurant.

The shaved ice was fluffy and delicious with mango on top. The tapioca was warm, so I ate the shaved ice and had tapioca as a chopstick break.

There are still many stores that I haven’t introduced yet, so I will do the second part of the “Shinjuku Support Campaign” in the next article! Please look forward to it★

Finally

In this issue, “Ganbarou! Shinjuku Support Campaign” was explained.

We found that PayPay is the most accepted method of payment at most of the stores we surveyed.

Since this campaign is limited by payment providers, if you can use a payment method other than PayPay, it would be better to use a payment method other than PayPay and pay with PayPay at stores where only PayPay is available.

In September, there are consecutive holidays, and the weather is becoming easier to go out.

I would be happy if this blog makes you think about visiting Shinjuku City, or if you are interested in this store, or if you want to visit Shinjuku even though you cannot go during the campaign period.
