Toyota Finance Launches First Self-Offered Security Token Bond via TOYOTA Wallet App
Toyota Finance Corporation has issued its second publicly offered digital security token bond, titled the "TOYOTA Wallet Tsumugu Bond." Marking the Toyota Group's first self-offered bond issue, the product allows investors to subscribe directly through the TOYOTA Wallet smartphone application without opening a traditional brokerage account.
The primary details of the bond issuance are as follows:
- Issuer: Toyota Finance Corporation
- Total Issue Amount: ¥1 billion
- Tenor: 1 year
- Subscription Period: August 18, 2026 – September 2, 2026 (17:00 JST)
- Issuance Date: October 27, 2026

By eliminating the requirement for third-party brokerage firm distribution, Toyota Finance aims to create a unified investment experience—handling application, investor updates, and perk distribution directly through its digital ecosystem. The structure also bypasses standard credit card settlement schemes, making subscription available to non-holders of TS CUBIC cards.
In addition to base returns, the issue features direct integration incentives. Investors are eligible to receive TOYOTA Wallet QUICPay electronic money balances based on specified account setup conditions. Buyers also enter lotteries for experiential perks, including spectator tickets for Fuji Speedway events, test drives of selected Lexus, GR, and classic Toyota vehicles, and electronic money bonuses upon purchasing new Toyota or Lexus vehicles.
