How Rakuten PointClub's "Quiz! Which One? Show" works, and the conditions for its 1,000-point drawing

Good morning. まさきん here.

In the Rakuten PointClub app, I came across a feature called Quiz! Which One? Show. It offers a chance at 1,000 points, so I checked the conditions.

Features inside the app get swapped out regularly. So I wanted to lay out this round’s conditions properly, once and for all.

What kind of campaign is this

In terms of the campaign types I mapped out before, this one falls under time-limited point rewards.

Rakuten PointClub has several play-to-earn features. A previous post covered Lucky Draw and the karuta and Dosupoi mini-games.

This “Quiz! Which One? Show” is in the same family. It’s a bit different from the daily mini-games, though. It’s a one-shot entry — you can only join once.

From a work perspective, this kind of two-choice quiz has a very low barrier to entry. You just pick one and you’re done, so there’s hardly any time spent hesitating. It’s probably designed as a light, swappable feature that rotates on a regular basis.

Campaign overview

Here’s a table of the basics worth knowing.

Joining is simple. Pick either A or B on screen, and if you’re correct, you’re automatically entered in the drawing.

Who’s eligible and who isn’t

Anyone who answers the quiz correctly during the campaign period is eligible for the drawing. Whether you make it to the “correct” screen is what decides eligibility.

That said, there are a few exclusions.

• Rakuten Group employees and executives
• Anyone entering with multiple Rakuten IDs
• Anyone found to have engaged in fraudulent behavior
• Anyone who couldn’t participate due to access congestion or maintenance

Excluding employees is a condition you see a lot in Rakuten-related campaigns. It’s probably there to avoid the appearance of insiders winning more easily.

These eligibility conditions are nearly identical across most Rakuten PointClub features. If this is your first time joining one, it’s worth reading through once.

How to join

Here’s the actual entry process, step by step.

1. Open the Rakuten PointClub app
2. Find the “Quiz! Which One? Show” feature
3. Pick A or B on the quiz shown
4. Make sure you reach the “correct” screen
5. Check your entry history to confirm your entry went through

The whole thing takes seconds. Still, step 4 — actually reaching that “correct” screen — turned out to matter more than I expected.

How winning and point payouts work

It’s worth knowing the winner-announcement and payout flow ahead of time.

There’s no formal winner announcement. Whether you won is something you find out by whether points land in your account.

You’d need to check your point history yourself around November 30. Just waiting for a notification might mean you never notice.

Decide how you’ll use the time-limited points first

The reward is paid out as time-limited points, expiring on December 31, 2026. Time-limited points lapse faster than regular points.

There was also a note that even if you use the points before expiration, a later cancellation or price correction could mean they’re not refunded. So it seems safer to decide how you’ll use them as soon as they arrive.

Putting them toward your monthly phone bill is one option worth considering. It’s a recurring expense, so you’re less likely to forget to use them.

Bundling your phone bill into Rakuten Mobile gives time-limited points like these more places to go. Switching carriers through a referral can earn up to 14,000 points. If you haven’t yet, it’s worth a look.

How this compares to other Rakuten lottery and mini-game features

Rakuten PointClub runs several similar lottery and quiz features. Lined up side by side, each one has a different character.

This quiz isn’t a daily feature like Lucky Draw. It’s closer to a one-shot format like the Million Lottery. That said, the prize amount itself is on the modest side.

Any of these feel good if you win. None of them, though, are large enough to change your household budget on their own. Treating them as something fun to join casually seems like the right distance.

When’s the next round

The page noted “Next round: scheduled for November 10, 2026.” That’s the exact same date this round ends. It might be a back-to-back recurring feature with no gap in between.

Sometimes a new round starts right after the previous one ends. Other times there’s a gap. If you’re curious, checking the app’s top screen regularly seems like the way to go.

What was a bit confusing

One thing that caught my attention was how entry completion gets confirmed. There was a note saying that if you don’t see the “correct” screen through to the end, you might be excluded from the drawing.

If you close the app partway through, your entry might not have gone through. Checking your entry history to confirm you made it all the way seemed like the safer move.

Another point was how winners get notified. There’s no winner announcement — the point deposit itself serves as the result.

Worth noting the eligibility conditions again, too. Rakuten Group employees and executives, and anyone entering with multiple Rakuten IDs, are excluded. Entries may also be excluded if access was concentrated during the period.

Who this is a good fit for, and who it isn’t

Here’s a rough breakdown of who this suits and who it doesn’t.

Only 10 winners are chosen. This isn’t a feature where joining guarantees you anything. Treating it as a casual, low-stakes thing to try along the way seems about right.

Common mistakes and pitfalls

Based on the campaign page and its fine print, here’s what seems easy to trip up on.

All of these are avoidable once you know how the system works. The entry itself is simple, so just keeping these points in mind should be enough.

What to check before joining

• Have you installed the Rakuten PointClub app?
• You can only enter once — did you make it to the "correct" screen?
• Did you confirm your entry in your entry history?
• Do you know the expected arrival date (around November 30, 2026) and expiration (December 31, 2026)?
• Are you entering with only one Rakuten ID?

I’ve also written about these daily mini-games in a previous post. Treating it as a light, casual thing to try seems about right.
