Developing non-face-to-face Credit card payment business at GMO Internet Group, GMO Payment Gateway, Inc. (TSE Mothers: Securities Code: 3769 Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, President & Chief Executive Officer: Issei Ainoura hereinafter referred to as GMO-PG) is a Don Quijote leading distribution company. Donkicom Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Edogawa-ku, Tokyo, President & Chief Executive Officer: Koji Ohara Hereinafter, Donkicom), and taking advantage of the capacity merits and know-how of the infrastructure that supports the strengths of both companies, "purchasing, storage, delivery" and "Credit card payment", the online shop business agency service "ecosec GMOPG" provides one-stop business agency services for "product purchasing, storage, delivery, payment payment and collection" We have agreed to jointly develop and launch the "payment Plan". This allows online shop operators to significantly reduce their operating costs.

The ecosec GMOPG payment Plan, an online shop business agency service, is a one-stop service that provides almost all of the behind-the-scenes work necessary for the operation of an online store, from product purchase to storage, picking, wrapping, delivery, payment and collection. This service combines the functions of "product purchasing, storage, and delivery" of "ecosec", a comprehensive e-commerce business service operated by Donkicom, with the capacity merits and know-how of the infrastructure that supports GMO-PG's "Credit card payment". In terms of the fee structure, the initial cost required to introduce an online store has been reduced to about one-tenth (*) of the conventional cost, and the operating cost of the online store, which has been mainly fixed costs until now, has been reduced to a pay-as-you-go fee system based on sales.

As a result, customers can concentrate on "attracting customers" and "customer service" that are essential for sales growth, without being caught up in complicated behind-the-scenes affairs such as product management and delivery in online store management. In addition, the burden of the initial investment to open an online shop is small, and the pay-as-you-go fee system can reduce the cost of operation, making it possible to operate an online store with less risk.

In addition, the "ecosec GMOPG payment Plan" will be gradually provided to vendors who provide ASPs for online store construction. 

* Compared to the total initial cost of 586,000 yen when using GMO-PG and Donkicom services individually, the "ecosec GMOPG payment Plan" will be 59,800 yen.

A business agency service that provides "business support from product purchase to delivery" by outsourcing complicated work such as delivery and storage work to both online shop users and operators. It is possible to reduce costs by providing products with the product procurement capabilities of the Don Quijote Group, which has cultivated through the operation of more than 100 stores nationwide, and by taking advantage of low rates that take advantage of capacity advantages. Online shop operators can focus on sales without the risk of inventory storage and labor costs.

GMO-PG's merchant acquiring service and Credit card payment processing services are available. We can conclude merchant contract with credit card companies, process credit card payment online, and make lump sum deposits from credit card companies.

In recent years, there have been a large number of online shops due to the rapid spread of shopping malls and ASP services that make it easy to open online shops, as well as lower prices and freeters, but there are only a handful of online shops that have grown to the point where their monthly sales exceed 1 million yen. The reason for this is thought to be the potential burden of growing sales, which can be said to be an "invisible barrier". Even if you open a store or shop in a shopping mall, you must bear the various operations necessary for subsequent business operations, such as purchasing, storing, picking, wrapping, delivery, payment payment and collection, as well as their costs, as a fixed cost by the operator. Many online stores throughout Japan face this "invisible wall" and are unable to increase sales beyond a certain level.

In recent years, the environment surrounding online shops has not only lowered the cost of opening an online store, but also the cost of attracting customers due to the spread of performance-based advertising such as search-linked advertising and affiliate advertising is shifting significantly from a fixed cost type to a variable cost type. Even in the operation part of the online shop, there is a need for a business agency service with variable costs.

The "ecosecGMOPG payment Plan" not only provides a one-stop service for all intermediate operations other than "customer attraction" and "customer service," which are important for the growth of online stores, from purchasing and storing products to delivery, and collecting payments payment. We aim to create growth opportunities for online stores.
