Currently, the employee referral campaign allows you to earn 14,000 points if you switch carriers (MNP), and 11,000 points if you don't switch carriers . Each point is equivalent to 1 yen, and you can use these points to pay your mobile phone bill. Renewal contracts are also eligible to apply for the referral campaign.
