Toyota Finance Offers ¥1 Billion Tokenized Bond Through Toyota Wallet

Direct app access gives retail customers a one-year security token sold through Toyota Wallet on BOOSTRY's blockchain.

Overview

  • Toyota Finance opened applications for the ¥1 billion security token bond on Tuesday, August 18, 2026, with a 1.72% fixed annual coupon and a roughly one-year maturity.
  • Retail customers can apply through the Toyota Wallet app with a minimum purchase of ¥100,000 and without opening a traditional securities account, and allocations will be decided by lottery.
  • The issuance uses BOOSTRY’s ibet for Fin enterprise blockchain rather than Progmat, marking a shift in underlying infrastructure since Toyota’s first token bond in March 2025.
  • Toyota Wallet holders may receive loyalty-style perks such as QUICPay credits and chances to win Fuji Speedway tickets or test-drive experiences, and proceeds are designated for vehicle-purchase installment financing.
  • The bond is non-transferable so investors cannot trade it on secondary markets, a design choice that reduces market and regulatory complexity but concentrates credit and liquidity risk with Toyota Finance.
