With the acceleration of digitization in the education field, Mizuho Bank's opening of a store in "Gokko Land" was made possible by its desire to provide children with opportunities to learn about money while having fun.
As the first step in this initiative, we have begun offering a function that allows children to earn coins by experiencing work at various pavilions in "Gokko Land" and manage them in a "Coin Passbook". Through these functions, children will be able to experience financial and economic education while becoming familiar with coins and bankbooks together with their families. In addition, a second pavilion where children can learn "how to use money" is scheduled to open in 2023.
