Dedale Intelligence

In 2005, Jack Momose founded Degica with a vision to bridge the gap between global businesses and Japan's complex digital commerce landscape. What started as a video game publishing company helping international software vendors succeed in the Japanese market has evolved into a pioneering fintech company that powers cross-border payments across Asia and beyond. The company recognized early on that navigating Japan's unique payment ecosystem - from konbini convenience store payments to mobile wallets like PayPay and PayPay - was a significant barrier for international merchants. This insight led to the creation of KOMOJU, their flagship all-in-one payment solution that enables businesses to accept local payment methods through a single, unified API. Today, Degica stands as Japan's first global payments company, trusted by some of the world's largest platforms including Steam, TikTok, Shopify, and Wix. The company has grown from a small team to over 80 employees, with approximately half being non-Japanese talent, reflecting its truly international DNA. Headquartered in Tokyo with a Canadian founder at the helm, Degica has built a bilingual engineering culture that uses English as its common language. The company continues to expand beyond Japan into South Korea, China, Southeast Asia, Europe, and Latin America, helping thousands of merchants unlock new revenue streams while ensuring compliance with local regulations and consumer preferences. With a commitment to excellence underscored by PCI DSS and ISO 27001 certifications, Degica has become an essential partner for organizations looking to succeed in the complex world of Asian digital commerce.
