Global fandom platform corporations STAYGE Labs said on the 31st that it has launched an on-demand bromide content business through convenience stores across Japan.
The business was made possible through a partnership with BIT (Business Information Technology, CEO Yamaguchi Yukio), a leader in the content print service field based on convenience-store multifunction printers in Japan.
BIT operates the "e-Print Service," which prints a variety of content on the spot from multifunction printers installed in about 57,000 major convenience stores in Japan, including 7‑Eleven, FamilyMart, Lawson and Ministop.
The service goes beyond simple print sales and links with STAYGE Labs' fandom platform LiNC (L.I.N.C). When consumers print bromides at convenience stores, they can receive digital perks within LiNC such as entries for video calls and voice messages, enabling a fan experience that spans online and offline.
The first content is a bromide commemorating Kep1er's "Into the Orbit: Kep1asia" Japan concert, which will be released on Dec. 31. Fans can directly purchase on-demand goods based on high-definition images at convenience stores nationwide.
STAYGE Labs has signed a content supply contract with Korea's Danal Entertainment and plans to continue expanding a K-pop-centered lineup. Through cooperation between the two companies, the strategy is to establish K-pop goods and fandom platform-linked services in the Japanese market.
STAYGE Labs CEO Baek Myeong-hyeon said, "The on-demand goods sales method developed through this Korea-Japan partnership will become an important channel that connects K-pop and the Japanese market not only online but also offline."
Meanwhile, STAYGE Labs has established the local Japanese corporation STAYGE NXT Lab and is strengthening its presence in the Japanese market by participating as an official partner of "Vocal Grand Prix 2025." Through the LiNC platform, it provides differentiated fan communication features such as private messages and 1:1 video calls, accelerating global expansion.
