Akita Prefecture introduces the Premium Ticket initiative, designed to support residents affected by rising costs of living and to promote local businesses. This initiative offers valuable discounts through the Akita Prefecture Premium Tickets, which are usable at a wide range of participating stores and facilities within the prefecture. With a total issuance of 100,000 sets, each priced at 5,000 yen, the tickets boast a 20% premium, providing residents with an additional 1,000 yen value per set.

Available in both paper and electronic formats, these tickets contribute to local economic revitalization. Purchases can be made through designated banks or the official website, with the sale running from March 2026 until October 2026, or until quantities are exhausted. The tickets are valid for diverse services, including restaurants, accommodations, and retail, excluding certain items like taxes and financial products.

This program not only aids residents but also encourages community engagement by fostering support for local businesses
