Tokyo and Kawasaki, Japan, Feb 6, 2026 - (JCN Newswire) - Genesys® Cloud Services, Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President: Paul Ito Ricci, hereinafter Genesys), a global cloud leader in AI-Powered Experience Orchestration, and Fujitsu Limited (Headquarters: Kawasaki City, Kanagawa Prefecture; President and CEO: Takahito Tokita; hereinafter Fujitsu) which led the implementation of Genesys Cloud, announced the successful transformation of AEON Financial Service Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Tomoharu Fukayama; hereinafter AEON Financial Service) contact center operations and the completion of its effectiveness evaluation.
As part of this contact center transformation initiative, AEON Financial Service deployed Genesys Cloud™, a unified experience orchestration platform. Because of the composability of the Genesys Cloud platform, Fujitsu implemented customizations to meet its unique business requirements, including reporting management and system integrations, and will continue to support maintenance and operations. With over 2,500 seats, this deployment is among the largest of its kind in Japan’s financial sector.
AEON Financial Service plans to introduce an “AI Concierge (Voice Bot)” utilizing speech recognition technology. This will allow customers to be guided to the appropriate menu through natural spoken dialogue, eliminating the need for phone keypad input. Furthermore, AEON Financial Service is considering expanding the solution to other contact centers across the AEON Group. Genesys and Fujitsu will continue to support the advancement of contact center systems across the entire AEON Group.
Paul Ito Ricci, President of Genesys Japan, commented:
"AEON Financial Service is demonstrating how modern experience orchestration can transform customer engagement at scale in a short period.By moving its contact center platform to the cloud, the company has been able to internalize system development and significantly accelerate the speed at which it can deliver more convenient services to address customers’ needs. . We are committed to supporting AEON Financial Service through Genesys Cloud as they utilize AI to deliver innovative, personalized and empathic customer experiences and seamless support for each individual at scale."

Background
AEON Financial Service call center is responsible for comprehensive support across a wide array of financial services, including banking, insurance, and loans, in addition to payment services such as AEON Pay, AEON Card, and WAON. A significant challenge for the company was the increase in customer waiting times due to the growing variety of inquiry types and the increasing specialization and segmentation of internal guidance points. Moreover, the conventional on-premises call center system required modernization to effectively support future service expansion.
Improvements driven by the contact center operations overhaul
Following the deployment of Genesys Cloud and the overhaul of its contact center operations, AEON Financial Service has realized the following benefits within the first six months:
1. Higher self-service completion rates By expanding self-service options within the IVR (Interactive Voice Response) system, the self-completion rate for the menu option that allows customers to report payments after a failed withdrawal improved by 21 percentage points compared to the previous system, helping reduce customer wait times. 2. Automated SMS support By implementing a mechanism that automatically sends an SMS in response to IVR inquiries, simple questions can now be resolved through self-service. This allows operators to concentrate on more complex tasks. 3. Rapid feature enhancements and flexible operations The use of a cloud service with the requirement of a low-code functionality enables the speedy deployment of new services and quick changes to the IVR structure. Furthermore, future efforts to bring development in-house will allow for even faster response times.
