Customers will be able to earn and use d POINTs at Monex!
d ACCOUNT linkage enables customers to purchasemutual funds with d POINTs!
~ Customers can earn d POINTs worth 0.26% of the mutual fund holdings ~NTT DOCOMO, Inc. (headquarters: Tokyo; President and Chief Executive Officer: Yoshiaki Maeda;
hereinafter, DOCOMO) and Monex, Inc. (headquarters: Tokyo; Member of the Board, President andExecutive Director: Yuko Seimei; hereinafter, Monex) announced today that they will begin accountlinkage between general securities trading accounts of Monex and DOCOMO's d ACCOUNT from 6:00
p.m. on Friday, September 27, 2024. As a result, d POINTs can be accumulated by holding mutual funds,
and the customers can use the points to purchase mutual funds. Furthermore, the accumulated d POINTs
can be used to shop in town and online shopping, etc.
Since forming a capital and business alliance in January 2024, DOCOMO and Monex have strengthenedtheir cooperation, including the launch of "periodic purchase service for mutual fund using d CARD,"
which allows customers to accumulate mutual funds using DOCOMO's credit card.
As an additional service linkage, it is now possible to link a Monex account to a DOCOMO d ACCOUNT("d ACCOUNT linkage"). The d ACCOUNT linkage allows customers to earn d POINTs instead ofMonex points for the balance of mutual funds held in Monex general account, including NISA account.
After the linkage, all Monex points already held by the customer will be converted to d POINTs.
This time, Monex will increase the point accrual rate from 0.08% (annualized) to 0.26% (annualized) fora total of 9 mutual funds, including "Nikkei Stock Average High Dividend Yield Fund" and "iTrust India
Equity," for the average amount held in the month. It will become even easier to accumulate points simply
by holding mutual funds.
In addition, d POINTs can also be used to purchase mutual funds at Monex. If Monex customers link theird ACCOUNTs when they open a new account, they can use the d POINTs acquired prior to opening theaccount to purchase mutual funds. Several mutual funds are eligible for the new NISA, and since d
POINTs can be used at a rate of 1 point = 1 yen, not only those who already have a Monex account but
also beginners in investing can easily start asset building.
The d POINTs accumulated at Monex can be used for a wider range of convenient purposes, such aspurchasing mutual funds, services provided by DOCOMO, shopping in town or online.
For more information on d-points, please visit the DOCOMO website (Japanese only).
