About this page

This document is a guide for game companies distributing games with in-game purchases in Japan. It explains that game operators must file a notification with the Financial Services Agency under the Payment Services Act when issuing in-game currency and gacha tickets. Foreign companies distributing games in Japan are also required to comply. The document covers which games require notification, necessary filing documents, and exemption conditions (when unused item balances never exceeded 10 million yen). It addresses frequently asked questions in Japanese, English, and Chinese.
