Point Income: Getting started

Choose a service around your existing spending

Points websites share part of advertising revenue after the advertised action is approved. Registration alone does not make every offer or bonus payable. Read the conditions before opening an offer and keep a record of what you applied for.

Register, use an offer, check the ledger, then redeem

First check the referral route and any campaign entry requirement. Next complete an eligible action in the recommended browser environment. Review pending and approved entries separately. Finally compare minimum balances, fees and delivery times before redeeming.

A manageable routine

Start with one service and one purchase you already planned. Check the reward’s yen value rather than the number of points. Avoid spending extra or applying for financial products simply to unlock a bonus.

Can foreign residents use points websites?

Nationality alone does not establish eligibility. Check each service’s current membership rules, age and residence requirements, accepted phone authentication and identity documents. An advertiser or redemption provider may apply different conditions from the points website. Pivox does not confirm individual eligibility or promise approval. Official registration and support screens may be in Japanese; this is an independent guide, not an official English service.

Before registering, check the spelling of your name, Japanese address and phone authentication on the official form. Where a bank account is required, confirm the account-holder name and supported account type with the redemption provider. Do not invent a kana spelling or abbreviate a name just to pass a form. Ask official support if your name cannot be entered correctly.
