What is Rakuten 24? The 30-second version
- Rakuten Group's own daily-necessities superstore (inside Rakuten Ichiba)
- 150,000+ items: essentials, cosmetics, food, baby goods, OTC medicine
- Free shipping over ¥3,980 (tax incl.; some regions like Okinawa differ)
- Counts toward shopping-marathon buy-arounds as an Ichiba store
- Purchases earn Rakuten points, usable on payments
- Frequent coupons, clearance sales and subscription campaigns
Working the ¥3,980 free-shipping line
The Rakuten 24 basic move is clearing the free-shipping line with a stock-up order. Since essentials always get used eventually, padding the cart is painless.
- Build the cart from consumables you'll use regardless: water, detergent, softener, paper goods
- ¥3,980 (tax incl.) for free shipping — a few everyday items clear it
- The heavier and bulkier the goods, the bigger the delivered-to-door win
- Some regions (e.g. Okinawa) have different shipping terms — check before ordering
Why the buy-around / SPU synergy is the point
The reason ecosystem users love Rakuten 24: must-buy essentials earn your multiplier (multipliers and terms change — confirm officially before buying).
- Counts as one marathon shop — a guaranteed +1 to your buy-around count
- SPU applies as usual and stacks with the marathon boost
- Pay with a Rakuten Card for card-spend points too (double dip)
- Stack days ending in 5/0 for more
- Our routine: restock consumables at Rakuten 24 every marathon
Coupons, sales and subscriptions
- Frequent category coupons (e.g. multi-detergent discounts)
- Clearance events can cut essentials steeply
- Subscriptions on eligible items run first-delivery point-up campaigns
- Campaign details rotate — check the campaign pages before buying
Rakuten 24 vs drugstores vs Amazon
Essentials have many channels; here's our split.

- For the same item, compare effective price (points included)

Câu hỏi thường gặp
How much is shipping on Rakuten 24?
Free on orders over ¥3,980 (tax incl.), except some regions such as Okinawa. A stock-up of everyday essentials clears the line in a few items; below it, shipping applies — so bundle purchases.
Does Rakuten 24 count toward the shopping marathon?
Yes. Rakuten 24 is a Rakuten-run store inside Ichiba, so it counts as one buy-around shop. Earning your multiplier with essentials you'd buy anyway is the main appeal — SPU and 5/0-day boosts stack on top.
What can I buy on Rakuten 24?
150,000+ items centered on daily necessities — water, detergent, paper goods — plus cosmetics, food, drinks, baby goods, pet supplies and OTC medicine. Nearly every household consumable is covered.
Is Rakuten 24 cheaper than a drugstore?
A drugstore's loss-leader specials can beat single-item prices, but Rakuten 24 tends to win on effective price (points included) once buy-arounds, SPU and coupons stack — plus nothing heavy to carry. For a monthly stock-up, Rakuten 24 is the convenient pick.
Does Rakuten 24 have subscriptions?
Eligible items offer subscriptions, sometimes with first-delivery point-up campaigns. Pairing a staple consumable with a campaign is the value move (terms rotate — confirm officially).
