Orico Launches 'My Forrent Card,' a Digital Card Supporting Credit Card Payments for Rent and Other Expenses
Orico introduces the 'My Forrent Card,' a digital credit card designed for paying rent and related housing expenses.
Orient Corporation (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Shin Umemiya; hereinafter 'Orico') will begin accepting applications for the 'My Forrent Card' (hereinafter 'the Card') on March 30, 2026, which supports credit card payments for rent, management fees, parking fees, and guarantee fees (hereinafter 'rent, etc.').
The Card is a digital card issued exclusively to contract holders of Orico Forrent Insure Co., Ltd. (hereinafter 'Orico Forrent Insure'), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Orico. In addition to daily shopping, it can be used for rent and other housing expenses, allowing customers to consolidate their monthly payments and streamline their financial management.
【Background of the Service】
While cashless payments have become widespread, payments for rent and similar expenses have traditionally relied on bank transfers or direct debits. By providing a service that allows these payments to be made via credit card, we aim to improve convenience for our customers.
【Card Features】
1. Centralized Payment Management
The Card supports monthly credit card payments for rent, etc., and automatically earns points. Furthermore, by consolidating daily shopping and utility bill payments onto this card, customers can improve the efficiency of their payment management. Accumulated points and usage statements can be viewed through the Orico member web service 'e-Orico,' helping to reduce the burden of household budget management.
2. AI-Powered Credit Screening for Same-Day Use
Utilizing proprietary AI-based credit screening, the review process can be completed in as little as 90 seconds from the time of application. Once approved, card information can be accessed via 'e-Orico,' allowing for immediate use with contactless payments (Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Wallet) at physical stores or for online payments at e-commerce sites.
*Please note that instant issuance may not be available if identity verification cannot be completed during the application or if the applicant does not meet the specified credit criteria.
3. Environmentally Friendly Digital Card
The Card is a digital-only product with no physical plastic card issued. By reducing resource consumption and CO2 emissions associated with card manufacturing and delivery, we are committed to providing a sustainable service that minimizes environmental impact.
