Piece Launches Pilot Program with Makes Group

Piece, a real estate investment FinTech, announced that it will collaborate with Makes Group, a company that plans, develops, and sells its own brand of condominiums, to launch a pilot program on the Piece platform to enable the sale of tokenized securities linked to high-quality domestic income-generating real estate properties to European investors.

Japanese real estate properties continue to attract increasing attention from overseas investors due to their stability and high profitability. Demand continues to expand, particularly in major metropolitan areas including Tokyo, Osaka, and Nagoya, as land prices rise. However, supply is limited relative to demand, making opportunities for small-scale investments, especially from overseas, scarce.

The Makes Group develops investment real estate properties, mainly in Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka, and is involved in the planning, development, sales, management, and sale of its own brand of living environments.

Piece launched “Piece,” an online platform for trading fractionalized European real estate properties, at the end of 2023. In November 2025, Piece Germany GmbH, the subsidiary that operates the platform, officially completed registration with BaFin (German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority), and the entire platform was revamped and fully launched. The new Piece platform allows users to purchase “Piece Tokens,” digital tokenized securities linked to real estate that generates rental income, and can also be traded (secondary trading) after meeting certain conditions. Piece Tokens are digital securities tokens linked to the rental income and long-term value appreciation of specific properties. They are issued on the blockchain in accordance with the German Electronic Securities Act (eWpG) and comply with the MiFID II regulatory framework.

Through this collaboration between the two companies, Makes‘ properties will be safely and sequentially made available to overseas investors, primarily in Europe, through the Piece platform.
