Nudge Launches Official Credit Card for 6-Member Idol Group 'myojou'

Nudge Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Takashi Okita) has partnered with PLAYYTE Inc. to begin offering the 'myojou Card' on its next-generation credit card service 'Nudge' (hereinafter 'Nudge Card') starting June 8, 2026.

This card enables users to support 'myojou' through daily shopping. Card usage unlocks exclusive benefits provided by 'myojou' and allows enjoyment of original design cards.

Cardholders can choose between two international brands: JCB and Visa. Multiple cards with different designs but the same card number can also be issued.

Support Mechanism

Nudge Card partners with over 150 artists, sports teams, and local governments to issue a wide variety of credit cards. When users make purchases with this card, a portion of the transaction fees—normally returned as points—is instead redirected to the partner (club). This allows users to support their favorite groups through everyday payments.

Original Card Design

By joining the 'myojou' club, members can receive a club-exclusive original design card.

Additionally, the card is numberless—without printed card numbers—enhancing both design appeal and security. Furthermore, those who issue an original design card will receive a 'preservation card' for display purposes, allowing the card to serve not only as a payment tool but also as a collectible idol item.
