Better with Omotenashi
Omotenashi is the Japanese principle of placing importance on the highest standards of care, support and understanding. It’s the approach we take every day, which has allowed us to build the authentic connections needed for lasting brand loyalty and trust. And it's why we can unlock the growth you're looking for with the most valuable Cardmembers worldwide.
With a mutual partnership founded on shared trust and prosperity, our relationship with Euronet 360 Finance has developed over the years towards a common goal – attracting consumers with quality services and seamless experience. It is this close collaboration at the technical and business level that has ensured today, we meet rapidly changing market and cardmember demands.
While we like to call this meaningful partnership, omotenashi, no matter what you call it, it’s why acquirers and merchants find us hard to resist.

The Art of Omotenashi
Ethos? Approach? Promise? Culture? Art? Omotenashi is all of the above. Its guiding principles mean we apply the highest standards of care, consideration, integrity, and respect, to everything we do. From building a network for growth and value, to protecting our Cardmembers with secure payments technology. It’s why doing business with JCB is so refreshing and unique. And why the payments world is #BetterWithOmotenashi™.
