It is hoped that one event will trigger a significant increase in the cashless ratio.

Centered on members of both companies of Kaifeng Susumu Science & Technology Co., Ltd., who are familiar with the trends in the payment field in Japan and China, we are studying what is happening in recent payment trends and what will happen in the future.
