GMO Financial Gate, Inc. (GMO-FG) operates as a key provider of cashless payment infrastructure in Japan, focusing on the face-to-face, offline market. Established in September 1999 as C.O.C. Inc., the company initially served as a data center for J-Debit payment processing. A significant milestone occurred in January 2010 when GMO Payment Gateway, Inc. (GMO-PG) acquired a stake, making C.O.C. an equity method affiliate. The company was rebranded to GMO Financial Gate, Inc. in April 2015 and became a consolidated subsidiary of GMO-PG in September 2016. It was publicly listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Mothers market in July 2020.
The company is led by President and CEO Kentaro Sugiyama. Mr. Sugiyama began his career as an IT engineer in 2001, developing financial systems at IBM Japan before joining GMO-PG in 2014 to gain experience in e-commerce service development and management. He transitioned to GMO-FG in 2017, leveraging his technical and management background to capitalize on the growing cashless market.
GMO-FG's business model is centered on providing a comprehensive suite of cashless payment solutions. Revenue is generated through two primary streams: initial revenue from the sale of payment terminals and recurring revenue from payment processing services. The company serves a diverse client base, from large retailers to small and medium-sized merchants like restaurants and beauty salons. Its core offerings include multi-payment terminals that support credit cards, debit cards, electronic money, and QR code payments. These are available as all-in-one countertop units like the "stera terminal" or as embedded IoT terminals for unattended devices such as vending machines, ticket machines, and self-service laundromats. Beyond hardware, GMO-FG operates a secure, PCI DSS-compliant processing center that acts as the intermediary for transaction data between merchants and financial institutions.
