Equity Crowdfunding Launch GINKAN Inc. is set to launch an equity crowdfunding campaign for 'SyFu,' its next-generation FinTech project that links daily payment data to gaming experiences, digital assets, and future credit. The campaign will be hosted on the eCrowd platform, running from 19:30 on May 28, 2026, to 22:00 on June 8, 2026.

SyFu's Mission SyFu is a Japan-based Web3×FinTech project aiming to visualize 'consumption history' as a new form of individual value, which has traditionally been overshadowed by metrics like income or savings. By syncing daily shopping and dining transactions into the app, users can grow their character NFT, 'MANEKINEKO NFT,' which in turn leads to experiences with in-game items and tokens.

Service Background and Milestones SyFu is more than just a gaming or card-reward app. It transforms daily payments into enjoyable experiences while accumulating fragmented payment data as a user's own asset, with the future goal of becoming a core for corporate loyalty programs and credit reporting infrastructure. During its beta testing phase, SyFu recorded over 9,000 participants, 1.2 million transaction data points, and a total transaction volume exceeding 6 billion yen. It maintains high engagement, with MAU rates over 65% and WAU rates over 53% during the pre-open beta.

Investor Benefits To reward those who support the project, GINKAN has planned exclusive investor benefits, including either 'SyFu Game Experience' or 'Merchandise' options based on the investment amount. Additionally, the limited edition NFT 'MANEKINEKO Founding Edition' is planned for certain investment tiers. Through this funding, GINKAN aims to accelerate development and partnerships, moving into a new phase of growth with its user base.
