  4. Work From Anywhere at Anytime.
    About WFA
    People should be freer, more enriched,
    and have more fun in creating more value –
    this is the underlying idea for PayPay’s new workstyle.

    Where I Work From
    Nagano
    Case:
    Kyoko Fukuda
    Product Designer
    Works from Nagano

  6. Why I work from Nagano?
    - I love Tokyo because I was born and raised there, and I think
    it‘s a city where I can always make new discoveries. I also
    believe that Tokyo is a good fit for me. But seeing my colleagues
    who moved to Tokyo from different countries to work at PayPay,
    I started to vaguely explore the idea of challenging myself to live
    in a different country or city.
    The COVID-19 pandemic has made it a reality for me to move
    out of Tokyo and I considered many different cities, but I chose
    Matsumoto because it fits my interests perfectly, with its cultural
    assets, crafts, and beautiful nature, which never makes me
    bored. I believe that improving our QOL (Quality of Life) will
    improve the quality of our work. Also, the fact that Tokyo is one
    express train ride away was another big point.

    Where I Work From
    Shizuoka
    Case:
    Works from Shizuoka

    View Slide

  8. Why I work from Shizuoka?
    - I have always loved this place and made many visits. Shimoda
    has great nature such as beautiful mountains and ocean, and
    you can enjoy many activities such as surfing, running, and
    gardening. There is a lot of wildlife around (monkeys, pheasants,
    wild boars, badgers, martens, and even scary centipedes...), so
    it makes you feel as if you are living in a zoo.
    - What I value the most is the health of my family. The school
    offers field trips to the local beach and classes in agriculture, and
    it seems like the children are getting a unique rural experience.
    Our family is very happy to be away from the city, surrounded
    by nature and living at a relaxed pace.

  10. Why I work from Kagoshima?
    -I had been living in Yokohama until I moved, but I’ve always
    loved the Japanese countryside. Kagoshima is a very relaxing
    place with mountains, rivers, and ocean. There is also an active
    volcano, Sakurajima, and I even have a hot spring at home.
    At PayPay, we use cutting-edge technology. And we're always
    trying to improve our environment. There is a lot to learn, but I
    enjoy this situation. I’m simply happy that I’m able to work in
    PayPay’s cutting-edge environment and have the mountains and
    rivers of Kirishima at my doorstep.

    04 Where I Work From
    Fukuoka
    Case:
    Works from Fukuoka

    View Slide

  12. Why I work from Fukuoka?
    - Though it is not as big as Tokyo, Fukuoka is a major city. It's also the
    biggest city I've ever lived in.
    For me, Fukuoka is the perfect size. It has all the conveniences of a city
    but is also a good distance away from the hustle and bustle to escape into
    nature. Having a car or a motorcycle is a must, but the public
    transportation system is one of the best in Japan.
    For families with small children, it’s good to live in a place where they can
    take a break and enjoy the slow life. Having a car-centered lifestyle is also
    convenient for families raising children, and it's perfect for shopping,
    hobbies, and weekend trips.
    The cost of living is much cheaper than in Tokyo. You can live very close to
    downtown, and taking the Shinkansen or plane is easy as the train stations
    and airports are also close. And yet, the rent is not unbelievably expensive.
    As Fukuoka continues to become more and more convenient, the prices
    are likely to increase little by little, but I feel that they are not comparable
    to Tokyo.
    Fukuoka is also a city with excellent access to urban functions and nature.
    It is overwhelmingly convenient to access the whole of Kyushu, Okinawa,
    as well as Asian countries. And there is fresh seafood, mountain produce,
    local cuisine, and an exotic food culture, all of which are delicious.

  14. Why I work from Nara?
    -I had a strong desire to work in Tokyo, but due to circumstances that
    prevented me from leaving my hometown, I was unable to make it
    happen. In the meantime, I learned about PayPay's WFA program,
    allowing me to work for a Tokyo-based company while living in the
    countryside. I was also very interested in the business itself, so I
    immediately applied. Thanks to this system, I am able to fulfill my long-
    time dream!
    Nara is a very comfortable place to live, with open sky and delicious air.
    There are many cultural assets within walking distance, such as Yakushiji
    Temple and Toshodaiji Temple, and if you go a little further, you can easily
    visit the Great Buddha of Todaiji Temple. It is surprisingly convenient to go
    to Osaka and Kyoto in less than an hour, and to Tokyo in about four hours.
    Being able to work for a company in Tokyo while living in Nara is really
    great!
    PayPay has a work culture that is fast-moving like a roller coaster.
    Producing high quality work every day in such an environment while not
    losing sight of myself is what I wanted for myself and what I will continue
    to challenge myself to do. I feel that Nara, the place where I was born and
    raised, and my precious family are the great supporters of me.

    Frequently Asked Questions
    Q. Is the WFA system only applied during the COVID-19
    pandemic?
    What is the current office attendance rate?
    In introducing the WFA system, we made the decision that we would not return to the
    traditional office-based work style anymore. Therefore, the WFA system will continue even
    after the pandemic subsides, and we intend to further transform the system so that it will
    enhance our productivity.

  17. Q. Am I allowed to work from places other then my home?
    As long as you can ensure security and privacy for your work, you can work from anywhere in Japan.
    You are not required to submit any application if you are going to the office and going back on the
    same day, but if you are going to work outside your home and need to stay overnight, you need to
    submit a simple application in advance via the company’s intranet.
    Q. Are there any restrictions on the use of the work-from-home allowance
    (JPY 100,000)?
    This allowance is provided to facilitate your work, but there are no restrictions on its use.
    We also lend desktop monitors to our engineers.
    Q. I am currently living in Sapporo, Hokkaido. How will my travel expenses
    be treated when I have to go to the office in Tokyo?
    Transportation expenses can be reimbursed up to JPY 150,000 per month. Based on our company
    regulation, air travel is also regarded as public transportation, thus commuting from remote areas
    also applies.
