LeLe TV
In Japan, at adult entertainment venues, one unavoidable fee is the nomination fee.
Recently, many people have been asking why in AILEDORE, when I go to see the same hostess for the second time, it costs 10,000 yen more.
That's why we're often asked whether LeLe TV is pocketing the difference, and why returning customers are charged more.
Since answering these questions is a bit complicated, I'll create a dedicated post to explain everything.

What is a nomination fee?
In Japan's adult entertainment, unless the shop assigns someone to you at random (random picks are usually hostesses who aren't busy, whom nobody has requested, or who are brand-new, and with them it's easy to be disappointed),
you pay a service fee. This is the nomination fee. You choose a hostess you like (in Japanese entertainment services, you always view photos first). Whether it's a hostess club, soapland, outcall service, or any other type.Once you have selected a specific hostess to serve you, this is considered a nomination, and a nomination fee will be charged. Usually around several thousand yen (LeLe TV never charges this fee no matter how you choose - it's so worth it!!)
What is a Repeat Nomination?
The above introduced the nomination fee. Now this is its evolved version—repeat nomination. This concept is more commonly seen in the soapland industry. In fact, about 90% of shops charge this repeat nomination fee. However, some establishments feel that explaining this concept to customers is too complicated and tiring, so they include it in the same price. For example, a shadier shop's 40,000-yen course might be sold for 80,000 yen, regardless of whether it's a foreigner's rate or not—this includes all nomination fees. It's calculated in such a way that you won't lose out anyway. (This is a bit off-topic.) Simply put, repeat nomination means when you book the same hostess for a second time after your previous booking—for example, if you booked Alice last month and then booked her again this month, you would pay a 10,000 yen repeat nomination fee (though each shop has its own standard—AILEDORE charges 10,000 yen). This money is not paid to the shop but directly added to the hostess's income as an incentive policy. On the other hand, the hostess also benefits from having more regular customers (to earn this fee), so she will put in extra effort and develop new services. The nomination fee is the shop's profit, while the repeat nomination fee is the hostess's earnings.
So if you want to select the same hostess for a second time, just pay it at an 80,000-yen high-end shop. The hostess will definitely not let you feel shortchanged—instead, she will provide even more affectionate, happy, and devoted service. If you can't accept the repeat nomination or feel it's unreasonable, you can also switch to another hostess. In that case, no additional fee will be charged. Currently, at LeLe TV, only AILE DORE charges a repeat nomination fee. Other shops we've discussed before were considered too complicated—for example, Hisui no Yume simply dropped it. If you go by yourself, there's also a big chance you'll be charged extra (I remember it was around 15,000 yen).
While looking for materials online, I found this image. I really wanted to share it with everyone.
A Yoshiwara shop. This person is promoting this shop... I just have to complain.
The fee mentioned above is the total amount. For Japanese customers, 110 minutes costs 45,000 yen (of course, early-morning sessions may be cheaper, daytime sessions probably max out at 50,000 to 60,000 yen).
For foreigners, 120 minutes can cost up to 80,000 yen (the sign says 70,000+).
In such a situation, there's definitely no need for the shop to explain what the nomination fee is or what the repeat nomination fee means... they're already making a full profit~~
When compared this way, how conscientious LeLe's shops are... Japanese-style pricing. These are really 80,000 yen establishments... not these 40,000 to 50,000 yen ones. yet they pretend to be high-end
