Design One Japan Co., Ltd. (CEO: Yasuo Takabatake, TSE Mothers: 6048), operator of Ekiten, Japan's largest all-genre word-of-mouth store search site, is pleased to announce that the cumulative number of reservations for Ekiten Easy Reservation, a cloud-based online reservation system for the relaxation and body care industry, has exceeded 800,000 in just one year since its launch.
The number of stores that have adopted "Ekiten Easy Reservation" continues to expand, especially in urban areas, and now, about a year after its launch, it is becoming widely adopted and established among small and medium-sized stores as a reservation management tool in the relaxation and body care industry.
In Japan, online reservation systems are becoming increasingly popular, particularly in the accommodation and restaurant industries, and are expected to become more widespread in other establishments run by individuals and small and medium-sized businesses in the future. Ekiten will continue to enhance its functionality and convenience to meet the growing needs for online reservations from both users and establishments.
Overview of "Ekiten Easy Reservation"
"Ekiten Easy Reservation" is a cloud-based online reservation system provided to stores listed on the review store search site "Ekiten." Currently, it is provided specifically for the relaxation and body care industry.
"Ekiten Easy Reservation" is an instant reservation system (reservations are confirmed as soon as the user applies), so reservations are confirmed in real time without any exchange of reservation confirmations. Reservation buttons can be placed not only on the store information page on "Ekiten" but also on the store's own website, so stores that have adopted the system can automatically accept reservations 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, even on holidays and outside of business hours, making it possible to attract customers more efficiently than before.
On the other hand, users can search for stores, find available store pages, and confirm reservations all in one place on Ekiten, allowing them to complete the entire process from searching for a store to making a reservation on Ekiten. (*) This allows Ekiten to provide users with a smoother store-finding experience.
*In order to use "Ekiten Easy Reservation", you will need an "Ekiten" ID.

Ekiten was established in June 2007 with the concept of "regional revitalization," and provides information to help users choose a store based on reviews and satisfaction ratings posted by users in a wide range of categories, including relaxation and body care, hair salons, clinics, and gourmet food.
Currently, it has grown into one of the largest store information databases in Japan, with a total of 440 million stores listed across 150 industries and over 100 million posted reviews, and serves as a customer acquisition/information provider that connects users and stores.
