System Location will increase the QUO gift-card values awarded through the March half of its shareholder benefit program. The company announced the revised schedule on September 14, leaving its September awards unchanged. [S01]
For holders of 100 to 299 shares, the March award rises from ¥500 to ¥1,000. Those with 300 to 499 shares will receive ¥5,000, up from ¥4,000. The same increase applies to holders of at least 500 shares.

The September schedule continues to provide ¥1,000, ¥5,000 and ¥10,000 across those three share bands. Each distribution uses its respective March or September month-end shareholder register, with no minimum continuous-holding period.
Cards are enclosed with the company's shareholder communications. The change raises the smaller of the two annual distributions while preserving the September differentiation between the middle and highest tiers.
The announcement also introduces planned access to a vehicle-valuation website, reflecting System Location's underlying business. That separate benefit does not alter the gift-card redemption mechanism.
QUO's physical gift card can be used at participating retailers across Japan. [S02]
