Notice of Termination of ABCI Point Issuance for FY2026

Current Situation and Measures

The amount of unused ABCI Points (remaining point balances) has become large relative to the computing resources available through ABCI. If additional points continue to be issued at the current pace, it is expected that users will find it difficult to consume all of their points by the end of the fiscal year.

Accordingly, the issuance of additional ABCI points for this fiscal year and the acceptance of new group applications have been concluded, as outlined below.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to our users, and we appreciate your understanding and cooperation.

End of Additional ABCI Point Issuance and Acceptance of New Group Applications

Application submissions for the following closed at 5:00 PM (JST) on Friday, October 30, 2026.

  • Applications to Add ABCI Points
  • Applications for New User Groups
