FX PRIME by GMO had suspended to offer the binary option trading since November 2013, but finally relaunched the service on 13 April 2015. 2 weeks after the relaunch, the company released a brand-new Binary Option trading app for smart phones.

The company believed that the intuitive app and the simple and user-friendly web platform led the company to achieve this remarkable amount.

Moreover, it is worthy to note that the trading amount exceeded 100 million JPY in only 2 business days (April 13 and 14).
