An upright PASELI charge station.

PASELI (Pay Smart Enjoy Life) is a digital currency service created by KONAMI in 2010 for its arcade games. A PASELI account holds points, where one point is equivalent to one yen, and can be used for paying for credits or can be used for micropayments on games supporting PASELI. Certain arcades sell 1000P PASELI prepaid cards which can be used to add points to your balance without requiring a credit card or BitCash.

As of March 27, 2012, certain arcades have PASELI charge machines where you can load 1000P to your PASELI balance by merely waving your eAMUSEMENT PASS and inserting a 1000 yen note (¥1000).

As of April 2014, KONAMI has raised the standard price of a credit for Japan-region machines from 100P to 120P. Coin mode is still available to play on these machines; however, in most games you will be locked out of a number of features in exchange for playing at a cheaper price.

History

PASELI launched on March 31th, 2010 with QUIZ MAGIC ACADEMY 7 and MAH-JONG FIGHT CLUB GARYO TENSEI (麻雀格闘倶楽部 我龍転生), being the only two games supporting it at that time. beatmania IIDX 18 Resort Anthem was the first BEMANI title to support PASELI. All the other BEMANI titles released since then, now include PASELI support.

Prior to PASELI, KONAMI used KONAMI COIN (コナミコイン) in April of 2008. It was only usable for character customization in QUIZ MAGIC ACADEMY 5 using eAMUSEMENT. It was later renamed PASELI in September of 2009 during the location test of QUIZ MAGIC ACADEMY 7.

BEMANI titles supporting PASELI

How to Use

Requirements and Steps

  • A KONAMI ID.
  • An eAMUSEMENT PASS. It have to be linked with a KONAMI ID.
    • To link an eAMUSEMENT PASS with a KONAMI ID, the eAMUSEMENT PASS card number (カードナンバー) and PIN (暗証番号) have to added to the eAMUSEMENT PASS members' website.
    • Be sure to check the checkbox in the PASELI利用設定 (PASELI Usage Settings) section to enable PASELI.
  • A PASELI prepaid card, supported credit card (Visa, MasterCard, JCB), or BitCash electronic money to add to your balance, or physical access to a PASELI charge machine.

Adding PASELI points from the Web

Note: Adding to your PASELI balance via the Web requires a Japanese KONAMI ID, as the charge process takes you to My KONAMI, which is localized and doesn't display PASELI-related options when your region is anything other than Japan. This does not prevent you from using PASELI charge machines, which are more convenient, but are still a bit hard to come across.

You can add to your PASELI balance by pressing the PASELIをチャージする button on your PASELI settings page. You are limited in the amount of points you can add to your balance at a time (500P, 1000P, 2000P, 3000P, or 5000P).
