JCB Exclusive Giant Gacha Experience in Shibuya

JCB immersive promotion blends Japanese pop culture, travel perks, and sustainability to enrich visitor experiences in Tokyo

JCB International Co., Ltd. has unveiled a playful new promotion designed for cardmembers visiting Japan: the Exclusive Giant Gacha Experience in Shibuya.

Running for a limited time across three iconic venues—Tokyu Plaza Shibuya, Shibuya PARCO, and shibuya-san—the activation brings Japan’s beloved capsule toy culture to life on a grand scale. Participants can snap a photo of the oversized gacha machine, share it on major social platforms with the hashtag #morejcb, and stand a chance to win memorable Tokyo-themed prizes.

Rewards include sightseeing essentials such as the Tokyo Metro 24-hour unlimited ride pass with a limited-edition case, as well as admission to CROSSING VIEW & ROOFTOP LOUNGE MAG8, offering panoramic perspectives of the world-famous Shibuya Crossing.

In line with its commitment to sustainability, the card company ensures that every participant receives a Shibuya-themed pouch with eco-friendly trash bags, supporting the beautification of Shibuya while providing a practical keepsake.

Guided by the campaign theme “More Japan – More Value, More Fun!”, the card company continues to enhance the travel journey for its international cardmembers. Beyond prizes, the initiative creates a shareable moment that encourages visitors to explore Japan more deeply while discovering the added value of paying with the card.
