ecbeing Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President: Masaya Hayashi), the provider of the EC platform 'ecbeing', has implemented 'Digital Address' on the official 'Japan Post's Online Shop' operated by Japan Post Co., Ltd. This new service allows a full address to be represented by a 7-digit alphanumeric code.
With this implementation, customers no longer need to enter their full address for every order, enabling safe and quick checkout even from smartphones. Since the 7-digit code does not directly contain geographical locations or information about housemates, it significantly enhances privacy. Furthermore, it helps prevent delivery failures or delays caused by manual input errors, improving overall delivery precision.
