Among these, Visa was initially issued under the license of Visa Japan Association (currently VJA),[1] but upon joining the MUFG group, an agreement was made with Mitsubishi UFJ Nikos on December 6, 2007. JACCS concluded a business partnership agreement to open up the Visa brand[2] and began issuing VISA cards under the company's license in 2009. In 2013, it became a principal member and began self-publishing.[3]
