[Japan] Nudge (Tokyo, Japan) has partnered with the female idol group “STARNOTE” to launch the “Suta Card” through its “Nudge” credit card (hereinafter referred to as the “Nudge Card”) starting on August 11, 2026, which marks STARNOTE’s debut date.Cardholders can choose between Visa and JCB as their international brand, and there is no annual fee (a one-time card issuance fee of 3,000 yen applies).
This card allows users to support “STARNOTE” through everyday purchases, offering exclusive perks provided by “STARNOTE” and the option to use cards with original designs based on card usage.
Nudge Card partners with over 200 artists, sports teams, local governments, and other organizations to issue credit cards. When you use this card, a portion of the transaction fees—which would normally be returned as standard points—is instead returned to the partner organization (club). This allows users to enjoy a new experience of “supporting their favorite” through everyday “payments.”
Examples of exclusive perks (partial list) include a welcome video message from Suta-chan, newly recorded voice clips for the “Gacha” feature, and handwritten cards from your favorite members.
Furthermore, by joining the “STARNOTE” club, members can have a club-exclusive, original-design card issued. Additionally, since the card features a “numberless” design with no printed card number, it offers not only an attractive aesthetic but also peace of mind in terms of security.Furthermore, those who issue an original design card will receive a “collector’s card” for display purposes, allowing them to keep it not only as a credit card but also as a memento of their favorite idol.
