Saga Bank will launch a campaign on November 1 offering up to ¥50,000 to customers who open or designate salary transfer accounts, aiming to attract over 3,000 new users, mainly young workers. The program runs until May 2026 and requires the use of the bank’s debit or credit cards. Existing customers who switch payroll deposits to Saga Bank are also eligible. A bank representative said the initiative seeks long-term relationships rather than short-term returns. The move comes amid growing competition among regional banks for deposits, with similar cash-back campaigns in nearby prefectures. Source: Saga Bank
