On December 24th, Nagano Prefecture announced inappropriate uses of tourist coupons under the national travel support initiative ‘Shinshu Discount SPECIAL’.
It was discovered that employees working at targeted lodging facilities within the prefecture had improperly used tourist coupons stored within the facilities. An investigation into the electronic tourist coupon usage records after the conclusion of the project period revealed unnatural uses, leading to the discovery and the acknowledgment of user responsibility by the facilities.
The total amount of misuse across four facilities amounted to 33,417,741 yen, of which 27,660,704 yen has already been returned by two of the facilities, with the remaining amount currently being returned.
The ‘Shinshu Discount SPECIAL’ was implemented from June 2021 to June 2023, offering discounts for accommodations and day trips within the prefecture, as well as distributing tourist coupons that could be used during travel.
