How marketplace base points, SPU, and entered campaigns combine — and why you compare the final price.
On Rakuten Ichiba you can stack base points, card-related SPU, and an entered campaign, but entry, tax-exclusive calculation, caps, and limited-time expiration differ by component — always compare the item’s final delivered price.
Marketplace stacking combines base marketplace points, card-related SPU, and eligible temporary campaign points. On Rakuten Ichiba, the base is about 1% with a Rakuten Card, SPU adds points as you use more group services, and shopping-marathon or big campaigns can add more — but entry, tax-exclusive calculation, caps, shipment timing, and limited-time expiration differ by component, and several SPU and campaign components are limited-time points. On Yahoo Shopping, PayPay Points combine with the PayPay Card and weekly coupons. Because Rakuten campaigns commonly calculate points after coupon reductions, and caps are often low, the only reliable comparison is the item’s final delivered price after coupons, shipping, and realistically-valued points across marketplaces.

SPU (Super Point Up) is a group-service program that adds Rakuten Ichiba points when you use specified Rakuten services and meet monthly conditions. Several SPU and campaign components are limited-time points that expire faster and are usually non-transferable, so discount them when comparing the item’s final delivered price.
Rakuten Ichiba earns Rakuten Points at a 1% base plus SPU and campaigns, so integrated Rakuten users can exceed a general card; Amazon Japan earns modest Amazon points, sometimes higher with a linked Mastercard.
