Comment from Akihiro Satomura, Head of Marketing (Japan, Korea, and Mongolia), Visa Worldwide Japan K.K.

I am very pleased to be partnering with REJECT again this year.
Through our activities to date, we have come to realize that the sight of players continuing to challenge the world in serious competition, along with the fan community cheering them on with all their might in every single moment, is elevating esports from a mere sport to a “culture” filled with intense passion.
As a network that supports payments around the world, Visa aims to foster experiences where the “passion” and “enthusiasm” of supporters connect across borders.
We will work alongside REJECT to create an environment where players, fans, and all those who love gaming can connect, take on challenges, and enjoy themselves with greater freedom.
