Who Runs Go on? Japox, a Japanese Mobility Tech Company

Short answer
Go on Rent-a-Car is operated by Japox Corporation Co., Ltd., a Japanese mobility tech company based in Kamata, Ota City, Tokyo, and the company behind 瞬カー® (ShuunCar), an AI vehicle-data and price-estimate service for car businesses. For you, that means a fully digital rental: booking, payment and document checks are done online before you land, prices include tax, and accidents can be reported from your phone.
Who operates Go on Rent-a-Car
Go on Rent-a-Car is not a franchise or a booking agent. It is run directly by Japox Corporation Co., Ltd. (ジャポックスコーポレーション株式会社), a company based in Kamata, Ota City, Tokyo. Japox rents the cars itself, under a permit for the paid rental of private vehicles under Article 80(1) of Japan's Road Transport Act, and its name appears on every page of this site and in our Rental Terms.

Go on Rent-a-Car is one of the company's mobility services: you pick up and return the car at Haneda Airport Terminal 3, in the P5 car park on the 8th floor.
From car workshop to mobility tech
Japox started in 2019 as an automotive services company. Its first work was car maintenance, towing arrangement, bodywork, inspection and repair, car sales, export and car rental. The company then moved into AI-powered information and communication services. Today it presents itself on two foundations: automotive professionals who know cars from the workshop floor, and transparency based on data science.
That mix explains why a technology company runs a rental car: Japox knows how cars are serviced and valued, and it builds software to make car information clear. Go on Rent-a-Car applies the same approach to renting a car at Haneda.
What "Powered by 瞬カー ShuunCar" means
At the foot of every Go on page you see the badge Powered by 瞬カー ShuunCar, which links to japox.jp. It tells you that Go on Rent-a-Car comes from the company behind ShuunCar.
瞬カー® (ShuunCar) is Japox's service for businesses such as car dealers, car buyers, lease companies, financial institutions and exporters. It helps with two everyday problems in the car trade: checking vehicle information takes time, and valuations often depend on one person's judgement. ShuunCar provides vehicle data and a reference price estimate; the final decision still needs a check of the actual car.
- Trademark: 瞬カー® is a registered trademark of Japox Corporation (No. 6830748).
- Patent: a technology that uses technology including artificial intelligence (AI) to identify vehicle attributes from vehicle identification information and apply them to sales support and price calculation (Japanese Patent No. 7588424).
You do not need ShuunCar, an account or any app to rent from Go on. The badge simply shows who stands behind the service.

Transparent pricing
- All prices include tax, and the longer you rent, the less you pay per day.
- The Safety Pack (¥1,650 per day) is required and is shown in the total; with it you pay ¥0 for covered accident damage. Details are in our guide to Japan rental car insurance.
- The ¥50,000 deposit is a card hold at pick-up, not a charge. At return we settle any extras from the hold and release the rest.
Digital accident reporting
In an accident, call the police (110) first, or 119 for injuries, then call us. When it is safe, open the "Car photos & accident report" page for your booking and send the report with photos and your location. You can send the first report without photos and add them later. Your location is read only when you press the button. Our car accident guide explains every step, and the emergency guide is ready on your phone.
