Yahoo! JAPAN Ads: Renewal of payment management and launch of Payment Center
Product
Yahoo! JAPAN Ads
Schedule
December 15, 2025
*The schedule is subject to change.
Summary
We will renew the payment management feature of Yahoo! JAPAN Ads and launch the new Payment Center.
Payment Center is a new feature launched as part of LY Corporation's "Connect One"initiative for platform integration. Payment information previously managed in Yahoo! JAPAN Business Manager will be transferred to Payment Center.
After the transfer, payments will start with Yahoo! JAPAN Ads and will gradually be available across LY Corporation's business services.
The main features available at launch are as follows:
Support for multiple credit cards
You can add multiple cards, set main and backup cards, and assign specific services to each card. We are enhancing security by implementing 3D Secure for identity verification.
Support for multiple receiving accounts
You can specify services for each receiving account.
Payment information managed per company
Payment information will be managed per company instead of per Yahoo! JAPAN Business ID. This change allows the use of common payment information across multiple business services.
Credit card registration for root MCC and MCC accounts
By registering cards with root MCC and MCC accounts, you can consolidate payments for the associated ad accounts.
Change product names on billing details
We will make the following changes.
| Japanese | English | Japanese | English |
|---|---|---|---|
| アカウント入金（後払い） | Payment for Account (Post-pay) | 広告料金（後払い） | Advertising fee (Post-pay) |
| アカウント入金 | Payment for Account | 広告料金（前払い） | Advertising fee (Deposit) |
Notes
- With the launch of Payment Center, payment information (credit cards and receiving accounts) registered in Yahoo! Business Manager will be migrated. For users with admin access in Yahoo! JAPAN Business ID, admin access in Payment Center will be granted automatically after migration.
- Maintenance will take place during the following schedule:
December 13-14, 2025
Details such as maintenance hours will be announced later. - Only Business IDs with admin access or operator access can view or modify payment information (credit cards, receiving accounts, etc.) in Payment Center. Business IDs with read-only can view the information.
- Using Payment Center requires signing in with the integrated Business ID. We recommend migrating from Yahoo! JAPAN Business ID to the integrated Business ID in advance. For migration steps, refer to the following help page:
Integrate your Business ID - In the Payment Center, billing to the credit card company is processed simultaneously with payment. As a result, immediately after transferring to the Payment Center, the timing of payments in the previous and new systems may overlap, temporarily increasing the payment amount.
