Showa Leasing Co., Ltd.

Showa Leasing Co., Ltd., one of the group companies of Shinsei Bank, Limited (hereafter referred to as Showa Lease: Head Office: Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo; President: Kiyohiro Kiyotani) and Daiwabo Information System Co., Ltd. (hereafter referred to as DIS: Head Office: Kita-ku, Osaka; President: Yoshihiro Nogami) will launch the iKAZUCHI Payment Collection service (hereafter referred to as ‘the service’) on June 24, 2019. The service allows Showa Lease to collect usage fees from customers on subscription-type cloud services on behalf of dealers who use DIS’s iKAZUCHI subscription management portal to manage their services.
 

In utilizing this service, DIS' dealers that use iKAZUCHI entrust DIS and Showa Lease with regular billing to customers and payment to DIS, thereby enabling significant reductions in serial paperwork.

iKAZUCHI manages the orders placed by customers with dealers. Based on the value presented to the customer by the dealer, DIS presents billing information to Showa Lease, and Showa Lease collects the value from the customer. Subsequently, Showa Lease pays the purchase value out of the collected value to DIS, and pays the difference between the collected value and the purchase value to the dealer.

Showa Lease is making vigorous efforts to construct differentiated service models in alliance with its outside partners. As part of its company strategy, it provides its financial functions to business partners offering a subscription service that is expected to grow in the future.

DIS and Showa Lease will continue to collaborate in order to upgrade various services that DIS offers through its iKAZUCHI subscription management portal.
