[Shareholder Benefit Introduction] Which one is the right choice? The benefit guide from TOKAI Holdings has arrived! Recommended courses and smart selection methods

1. Introduction: The TOKAI Holdings benefit guide, packed with the joy of choosing

Hello everyone. Among the many shareholder benefits, the ones that are catalogs or selection-based are the most fun because you get to spend time carefully deciding which one to pick after they arrive.

A classic benefit guide that always leaves me very satisfied has arrived at my home as well.

It is the TOKAI Holdings shareholder benefit guide!

The biggest appeal of this benefit is, above all, that you can choose one that suits you best from five courses, A through E. It is a versatile benefit that covers everything from daily necessities, gift certificates, and points, to discounts on budget SIM cards, depending on your lifestyle.

This time, while looking at the guide that just arrived, I will thoroughly explain the features of each course and the 'most profitable way to choose' as I see it!

2. A thorough comparison of the five major courses!

The volume of benefits you receive from TOKAI Holdings increases according to the number of shares held (100 shares or more, 300 shares or more, 5,000 shares or more). First, let's review the five courses you can choose from.

Course A: Aqua Products (Water)

You can receive plastic bottles (500ml) of Fuji natural water 'Urunon'. Since you get 12 bottles (equivalent to 1,359 yen) even with 100 shares, it is very practical for stockpiling or for daily outings. For those who have a water server subscription, it is also possible to choose 12L bottles.

Course B: QUO Card

The classic shareholder benefit, the QUO card. With 100 shares, you get 500 yen worth, and with 300 shares, you get 1,500 yen worth. Since it can be used instead of cash at convenience stores, drugstores, bookstores, etc., it will never go to waste.

Course C: TOKAI Group Restaurant Meal Voucher

These are meal vouchers that can be used at restaurants such as 'Vauciel' in front of JR Shizuoka Station in Shizuoka City. With 100 shares, you get 1,000 yen worth. This is an attractive option for those who live near the area or have opportunities to visit Shizuoka.

Course D: TLC Points

These are points that can be chosen by those who are members of the TOKAI Group's 'TLC Member' service. With 100 shares, you get 1,000 points (equivalent to 1,000 yen). Since TLC points can also be exchanged for WAON points, etc., if you are already a member, the face value is higher than the QUO card, making it a better deal.

Course E: Smartphone Service 'LIBMO' Monthly Usage Fee Discount

This is a course where you can receive a discount on the monthly basic fee for the TOKAI Group's budget SIM 'LIBMO' for up to 6 months. Even with 100 shares, you can save '350 yen discount per month x 6 months = up to 2,100 yen', so it is actually the hidden best course with the highest return rate in terms of face value.

3. My criteria for a 'smart way to choose a course'

With such a wide variety, it is easy to get lost, but you won't go wrong if you choose based on the following criteria.

1. If you prioritize return rate & fixed cost reduction, choose 'Course E (LIBMO)'

If you are currently using the low-cost SIM service LIBMO, or are considering switching to it, Course E is the clear choice without hesitation. For 100 shares, the Course B QUO card is worth 500 yen, but Course E provides a discount equivalent to 2,100 yen. Since the value jumps to more than four times as much, it is the best option for those who want to significantly reduce their household communication expenses.

2. If you are already a group member, choose 'Course D (TLC Points)'

If you use TOKAI's infrastructure services such as gas or internet and are already a TLC member, Course D is recommended. It is worth 1,000 yen for 100 shares, which is twice the value of Course B (500 yen).

3. If you prioritize convenience and ease of use, choose 'Course A (Water)' or 'Course B (QUO Card)'

If you want to keep the process simple or prefer something that anyone can use, water or a QUO card is a safe bet. In particular, the 500ml plastic bottles can be kept for heatstroke prevention in the coming season or as rolling stock (emergency supplies) for disasters, which directly helps save on actual living expenses.

4. A delightful 'bonus'! Discount coupons included for everyone

Furthermore, don't overlook the 'Discount Coupons for Interested Shareholders' that come with every course, regardless of which one you choose.

Included are a 10% + 100,000 yen discount coupon for weddings at the wedding venue (Grandair Bouquet Tokai) and a '20% off dining coupon (book of 12)' that can be used at teppanyaki and French restaurants. Getting 20% off dining on special occasions is a pretty significant benefit.

5. Summary: An excellent benefit that can be customized to your lifestyle

The great thing about TOKAI Holdings' shareholder benefits is that you can freely switch between receiving 'goods,' 'vouchers,' or 'communication cost discounts' depending on your situation at the time.

Now that rising prices and increasing fixed costs are a concern, I want to make the most of these benefits to enjoy a smart and fun thrifty life.

This time, my family is planning to apply for that reliable course!
