We have previously implemented voluntary fee reductions and are promoting a system that applies lower fees to donations on websites owned by municipalities themselves. By 2030, we aim to reduce the real fee level by about 4 percentage points from the current level.\n\n### Financial\/Operational Impact\nThe portal site's services include donation applications and payments, data management, and support for municipalities and merchants providing returns, with costs arising from payment-related expenses and information processing\/system operation costs. To balance reducing costs with the sustainability of the system, we will continue to review the fee structure and pursue operational efficiencies while maintaining quality and safety.","jir_financial_highlights":"Policy on reviewing fee levels: Unknown (Unknown)\nReal fee level target for 2030: Reduced by about 4 percentage points from current levels (Target setting)","jir_category":"","jir_hashtags":"#No treasury stock buyback, #No executive changes, #HometownTax, #FeeReview","jir_key_figures":"Fee level plan: around 3%\n2030 target: real fee level reduced by about 4 points from current\nUnknown: actual current fee rate and concrete new level","jir_meta_title":"iMobile: Response to the Hometown Tax Portal Fee Reduction Request | August 2026","jir_meta_description":"iMobile presents its response to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications' request.
