The Association encourages this mode of payment for annual fees; and cites the following merits.

- It is not necessary to keep the pay deadline in mind
- No commission on transfer
- Formalities are unnecessary, unless one transfers his bank account.
- Automatic debit system is explained in the March GIS Newsletter and others, there should thus be no doubts
- All money transfer issues are handled by "Diamond Factor Corp.
- Bank transfers are shown on the passbook as "GISnenkaihi".
- Automatic transfers are conducted on June 27, if it falls on a weekend,or a public holiday then the transfer takes place on the next business day.
- The following financial institutions can be used for the automatic debit system
- Nationwide city banks, nationwide regional banks, nationwide second regional banks, nationwide trust banks, long-term credit banks, national labor credit associations, and national agricultural cooperative association(credit unions and the post office are not used for this service).
