Toyota Finance opens tokenized bonds to retail investors via mobile payment app
Retail investors can apply to buy the 1 billion yen bond without a securities account and receive perks through Toyota’s payment app.
Toyota Finance is extending investment opportunities to retail investors through its mobile payment app, Toyota Wallet. The company has launched a tokenized bond, a 1 billion yen investment option with a 1.72% annual interest rate, allowing applicants to purchase the bond directly without the need for a securities account. The bond, offering investments starting at 100,000 yen, is being managed on blockchain infrastructure provided by Japanese security-token firm BOOSTRY.
Toyota Finance's finance arm will handle the bond's distribution, enabling investors to engage with the offering through the same ecosystem that includes Toyota Wallet applications, communications with bondholders, and additional benefits. These benefits include Fuji Speedway tickets and exclusive test-drive experiences in Lexus and select classic Toyota vehicles.
This tokenized bond represents Toyota Finance's second security token bond issuance, following its first debut in March 2025, which was sold through traditional securities companies.
