Luce Twinkle Wink☆ Unveils “Oshi-katsu” Credit Card for Ultimate Fan Support

Everyday Spending Transforms into Direct Idol Support with Exclusive Fan Rewards

Tokyo, Japan – January 16, 2026 – Nudge Inc., a pioneer in next-generation credit card services, has officially launched the “Luce Card” in collaboration with Aqualuna Entertainment Inc., the management behind the popular female idol group Luce Twinkle Wink☆. This innovative new VISA card, released today, allows fans to turn their daily shopping into a powerful means of supporting their favorite idols, a concept affectionately known in Japan as “Oshi-katsu” (fan activities).

This groundbreaking card offers a unique blend of financial utility and heartfelt fan engagement. As cardholders use their Luce Card for everyday purchases, a portion of the transaction fees is channeled back to the Luce Twinkle Wink☆ club, effectively turning every swipe into a direct show of support. It’s a seamless way for fans to contribute to their idols’ journey, making the act of shopping feel like an exciting part of their “Oshi-katsu” experience.

Unlocking Exclusive Rewards and Deepening Fan Bonds

By enrolling in the Luce Twinkle Wink☆ club through the Nudge card app, cardholders gain access to a treasure trove of exclusive benefits, tiered according to their cumulative spending. Imagine the thrill of receiving a personal message from your favorite idol just for using your card!

These special perks include:

Welcome Video: A personalized message from the members for all new cardholders.
Exclusive Photos, Voices, and Movies (Gacha): Engage in a digital “gacha” (a popular Japanese capsule toy lottery) to win one of eight unique photos of members in antique costumes, six recorded voice messages, or six special videos. Each pull is a delightful surprise!
Signed Shikishi (Lottery): Four times a year, three lucky fans will be chosen by lottery to receive a signed shikishi (a decorative square cardboard used for autographs) from all members, or even a personalized one from a specific member.

This layered reward system creates a dynamic and engaging experience, making every purchase a potential step closer to a cherished idol interaction.

A Card That’s Both Secure and Collectible

The Luce Card isn’t just about rewards; it’s a beautifully designed piece of fan memorabilia. Featuring a collective photo of all members adorned in charming antique attire, the card itself is a collector’s item. Its numberless design enhances security, providing peace of mind during transactions. Furthermore, those who opt for this original design will receive a special “preservation card” for display, allowing them to keep their cherished idol item separate from its financial function.

“As a fan, holding something this special in your hand, knowing every use supports your ‘oshi,’ is truly heartwarming,” shared one hypothetical fan, capturing the emotional resonance of such a unique offering.

Celebrate with a Special Campaign

To commemorate the “Live Tour 2025 FINAL ～Immutable RIIbon*～”, a special campaign awaits attendees of the tour final. On January 18, 2026 (Sunday), at Ebisu Garden Hall, all Luce Card members (new applicants and existing holders) who present their Nudge app club enrollment screen at the venue will receive a limited-edition card-shaped sticker. It’s a perfect keepsake to remember a special night!
