Introduction
Our Mission
Building trust for a seamless society. We challenge ourselves daily to achieve this mission. Merpay's business started as a payment service, but that was just our first step towards achieving the mission we envision. We want to create a society where anyone can realize their dreams through a new ecosystem centered not only on this payment service, but on credit. Let's work together to update society's deinition of "payment," "credit," and society itself.
Our Culture
Mercari’s culture has been central to the company since our founding, with the three core values of Go Bold, All for One, and Be a Pro. In addition, the “Trust & Openness” value was introduced to embody our culture of mutual trust, where information remains transparent and rules are kept to a minimum. Regardless of how big Mercari gets, the culture will remain essential to achieving our mission and is evidenced throughout our organization.
