Tokyo, September 2, 2015 - Rakuten, Inc. and Terumo Corporation announced that data linkage between the Rakuten-operated basal body temperature management service "Rakuten Kirei-do-Navi" and Terumo's "WOMAN℃ W525DZ" thermometer was started on September 1.

The data linkage allows basal body temperature data, which can be recorded by the waterproof WOMAN℃ W525DZ thermometer in roughly 20 seconds, to be transferred to the Rakuten Kirei-do-Navi smartphone app simply by touching the thermometer to a NFC-equipped smartphone*1 (Android™ 4.0 and higher). Not only does this increase the range of basal thermometers users of the Rakuten Kirei-do-Navi service can choose from, it also means that users of WOMAN℃ W525DZ thermometers can now use the Kirei-do-Navi service to easily graph and monitor their basal temperature and hormone balance on their smartphones.

Rakuten and Terumo have worked on enhancing each service by adding new features that reflect feedback from users, and through cooperation between the two companies they will work to further increase customer convenience and satisfaction.
