Kansai Electric adopts Polygon for JPYC rewards

Entities: JPYC · Polygon · HashPort · MOACT · Kansai Electric Power Co.

Overview

On July 30, 2026, Kansai Electric Power’s rewards subsidiary MOACT launched a feature that lets users convert NORM Points earned on its loyalty app into JPYC, a regulated yen‑pegged stablecoin. The conversion runs on the Polygon network and is accessed through the HashPort wallet, allowing point holders to hold, send or use JPYC on‑chain.

The next day, market commentary linked the partnership to broader Polygon dynamics, noting that the collaboration could boost adoption and influence the token’s price outlook. Analysts highlighted a potential price target of $0.73 for POL, contingent on stronger buying volume, and pointed to the deal as evidence of growing corporate interest in blockchain‑based payments in Japan.
