I was actually signing up for access for LINE@ developers API as well as an premium account, which after this I probably won’t be eligible for haha, when I read the “rules” associated with those who cannot be approved for an “Approved Account” and those who cannot he approved for an account at all. Keep in mind this is LINE@ and not just the regular messenger, there is supposed to be a business focus, as well as mareketing to smaller businesses that don’t get that much exposure as a way to create incentives like customer loyalty cards for ones side hair salon business, or that small cafe on the street side. After all line is a business as wel right.

Anyways take a look at some of the things that will disqualify you from obtaining a LINE@ “Approved” Account.

Users/Businesses who sell primarily over the internet.

Those without a physical store in Japan, unless involved in E-Commerce

(Your already blurring the lines here Line lol.)

Those who’s primary job is to find staff and recruits

Okay now here comes the best part. show pubs, sexy pubs, “snack” pubs, hostess clubs, host clubs, gay bars, girl bars, and similar bars or (ii) in facilities and seeking to pique interest in gambling, including pachinko parlors, slot-machine parlors, and Mahjong shops.

It’s funny. They don’t mention heterosexual clubs or Straight bars. Gay bars are automatically thrown in with the whole host situation. Sure there’s gay hosts as well as there are Straight hosts, but really like why is sexuality, well of course I understand why, but does it not ever get old. Stop trying to associate mere sexuality with this kind of image. Furthermore like don’t translate this garbage into English and then try and market it off as normal guidelines, it’s so excuse my language, fucking weird.

“Organizations that self-identify themselves as associated with a religion”
