At 10:00 AM on May 12, Matsuya’s official X account (@matsuya_foods) launched a Follow & Repost Campaign to celebrate the release of the Butter Chicken Curry and Rice, which went on sale today at 10:00 AM. Matsuya Points — 1,000 points, usable in the Matsuya Foods official app — will be awarded by lottery to 30 winners, with entries open through Monday, May 18.

The Same Pattern as the May 5 Taco Rice Release Campaign
Matsuya’s official X account has been running identically structured Follow & Repost campaigns at recent new menu release timings. Comparing the May 5 Taco Rice release with today’s Batachiki release shows the following.
| Item | May 5 Taco Rice Release | May 12 Batachiki Release (This Time) |
|---|---|---|
| Prize | 1,000 Matsuya Points | 1,000 Matsuya Points |
| Number of Winners | 30 | 30 |
| Posted At | 10:00 AM (same time as release) | 10:00 AM (same time as release) |
| Concurrent Promotion | App coupon for 3 Taco Rice items | Curry 50-Point Boost Campaign |
The prize (1,000 points to 30 winners) and the timing of posting at the same time as the release are an exact match to last time. A standard operating pattern has taken hold: 1,000 points to 30 winners via Follow & Repost with every new menu release.
Promotions Running Alongside the Batachiki Release
Today’s Batachiki release at 10:00 AM on May 12 is accompanied by multiple concurrent campaigns and promotions.
| Campaign | Period | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Batachiki Release Follow & Repost Campaign (This One) | 5/12–5/18 | Follow & Repost on official X, 1,000 Matsuya Points to 30 winners |
| Curry 50-Point Boost Campaign | 5/12–5/18 | 50 points for orders via Matsuben Net or Mobile Order on 8 items including Batachiki and Cream Butter |
| Matsuben Net Double Points | 5/1–5/17 | Double Matsuya Points on Matsuben Net orders |
| PayPay Up to 10% Cashback | 5/7–5/17 | Up to 200 points per transaction on payments of 800 yen or more |
If a customer orders Batachiki (980 yen) via Matsuben Net and pays with PayPay, three layers apply simultaneously: the Curry 50-Point Boost, the Matsuben Net double points, and the PayPay 10% cashback (the Follow & Repost entry is separate).
Editor's Note
The Batachiki Follow & Repost campaign dropped at the same 10:00 AM release time, with 1,000 points to 30 winners — an exact match to the May 5 Taco Rice campaign. Follow & Repost campaigns to mark new menu releases are becoming a fixed pattern.
