■"Yokocho Tegata - Yokopass" for cashless, ticket-machine-less, no-waiting convenience with just a smartphone, offering great deals

What is the LINE mini-app "Yokocho Tegata - Yokopass"?

At our store, if customers are LINE users, they can use the "Yokocho Tegata - Yokopass" mini-app on their smartphone to "pay for crane game plays" and "manage and use accumulated points." This eliminates the hassle of exchanging money, allows playing with just a smartphone, and offers a "Rakutoku" (easy and advantageous) experience where valuable points can be accumulated.

1. Two selectable payment modes (Charge payment & Pay-as-you-go)

・Charge (prepaid) payment: The most advantageous mode where you pre-charge (purchase) "Value (house money)" to receive equivalent value, bonus value, and "Points." It supports both cash and electronic payments; cash payments can be made at the in-store payment machine.

・Pay-as-you-go: A mode where you don't pre-charge but make electronic payments such as PayPay on the spot, paying for each play. Points are also awarded in this mode. Regardless of the payment method, 1 point is awarded for every 100 yen.

2. Smart Play by simply scanning a QR code with your smartphone

Scan the QR code affixed to the game machine with the LINE mini-app's reader, select the number of plays, and the game will start. For charge payments, the amount is automatically deducted from your charged balance; for pay-as-you-go, payment processing is done for each play.

3. Point exchange also completed on your smartphone

You can exchange accumulated points for gifts. By scanning the QR code of the desired gift placed in the store and that of the corresponding staff member, you will receive the gift on the spot. You can also check your point balance, expiration date, and history anytime on your smartphone.
