Myna Points is a point redemption measure for My Number card(Japan’s Individual card) holders implemented by the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications of Japan.

Also, after June 2022, a campaign will start where you can get 7500 yen if you register your My Number Card as a health insurance card, and 7500 yen if you link your My Number Card to your bank account.
It’s a little early, but as a bonus, I will explain the two registration procedures.

Thank you for all your help.
I have an issue, I can not install any myna apps (myna points and myna portal) my guess is because my phone doesn’t have NFC!
(as I have access to any other Japanese apps, like Mercary jp)
So you provide an alternative with 7/11ATM for Myna points (I will try soon)
But for Myna portal, there is no alternative, does it mean it’s impossible to link mynumber to my health insurance?
Thank you

Hi Yoji san, thank you so much for this blog it is very informative. I tried linking my bank account but it does not accept 7 bank which is the only bank account I have. Can you help me with this?

Thank you for reading my blog. Unfortunately, it seems that Seven Bank accounts cannot be registered as public money receiving accounts. Japan Post Bank seems to be easy for foreigners to pass the examination. How about opening an account at Japan Post Bank?

When scanning My Number Card with a smartphone, is it done on the desk or near a device that generates magnetism? It is easier to scan if you hold your My Number card and your smartphone in your hand.

Dear Yoji-san,

Thank you for the detailed explanation. I applied for the 20000 points and I was granted 20000 points in paypay. However, paypay did not update by balance after applying these points. is there a wait time before the balance gets updated. It seems to be that paypay has a bug in their system. where do i complain?

Have you ever thought about including a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is valuable and everything. But think about if you added some great visuals or videos to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with pics and videos, this blog could undeniably be one of the greatest in its field. Fantastic blog!

Thanks for the write-up. My spouse and i have usually noticed that the majority of people are desperate to lose weight since they wish to show up slim plus attractive. However, they do not always realize that there are more benefits so that you can losing weight also. Doctors state that obese people experience a variety of conditions that can be perfectely attributed to the excess weight. Thankfully that people who are overweight in addition to suffering from diverse diseases can help to eliminate the severity of their own illnesses by losing weight. It is easy to see a steady but identifiable improvement with health as soon as even a small amount of weight loss is attained.
