[Kadoma City](https://giftcard.news/organization/kadoma-city/) in Japan opened a tender on October 7 for the procurement and distribution of [JCB](https://giftcard.news/company/jcb/) gift cards to older residents. The specification plans for 34,250 beneficiaries, each receiving seven ¥1,000 paper cards under the city’s Senior Outing Support programme. [\[S01\]](#article-source-1)[\[S02\]](#article-source-2)[\[S03\]](#article-source-3)

The city describes the scheme as support for older residents affected by rising prices, while encouraging shopping trips and other outings. Its specification sets a birth-date cutoff of April 1, 1962 or earlier, registration in the city at September 1, 2026 and acceptance of the benefit. The October 9 clarification identifies the estimated quantity as individual recipients, not households. Final mailing data exclude people no longer eligible or declining the benefit. [\[S02\]](#article-source-2) [\[S03\]](#article-source-3) [\[S04\]](#article-source-4)

The notice publishes a planned price ceiling of ¥277,830,036, excluding applicable consumption and local consumption taxes. At the stated beneficiary estimate, the cards themselves would carry ¥239.75 million in face value. That second figure is a calculation from the planned volume and does not establish spending or completed distribution. [\[S02\]](#article-source-2)[\[S03\]](#article-source-3)

The contractor must procure the cards, prepare advance notices and mailings, supply a local acceptance guide, track deliveries and handle undelivered packages. Initial dispatch is normally required by November 26, with exceptions subject to city agreement. The clarification calls for a delivery method that completes first delivery within the calendar year.
