Trifa Inc. (Head office: Tokyo, CEO: Masatoshi Kana) provides the eSIM app "Trifa" for international travelers and announces that it has filed patents in Japan for the following three systems aimed at enhancing the convenience of travelers.

1. Digital benefit granting system starting from offline distribution

This system allows travelers to receive benefits through the app triggered by distributed materials (such as cards or printed materials) at airports and tourist information centers.
By enabling a seamless flow for users to receive benefits right from app download or launch, travelers can smoothly initiate communication at various points during their trip, such as before departure at the airport or upon arrival at local tourist hubs.

2. eSIM bulk purchase and gift function

This system allows users to purchase multiple eSIMs at once and share them collectively with family and friends.
It eliminates the hassle of individual purchases that was traditionally required, enabling all companions to smoothly establish a communication environment.
The recipient can start using it simply by installing the app and opening the sent link.

3. Automation of real-name authentication

This system allows users to complete the mandatory "real-name authentication" in Taiwan and Hong Kong by simply taking and sending a photo of their passport through the app.
Previously, users needed to navigate to specialized sites of foreign authorities or telecommunications providers and manually enter their information in a foreign language form.
This feature allows users to finish authentication through simple steps within the app, without such complicated operations.
