Details of the alliance
  1. 1

  2. 2

    By developing and providing as an application the Company’s proprietary wallet for using JPYC, the parties will enable low-cost loyalty programs and campaigns using stablecoins, including the immediate distribution of rewards, and aim to expand the number of businesses that will provide priority support for the Company’s operations.
