NOTE: Your Otsukai account will sync across the app and the browser version (otsukai.com)

How do I create an account?

  1. After downloading the app, tap Create Account at the bottom of the screen. 
  2. Fill out the required information such as your email address and password. Tap Sign Up after checking I Agree.
  3. Check the email inbox associated with the email you used to register an Otsukai account. You should have an email from Otsukai titled [OTSUKAI] Please confirm your account.
  4. Click on the URL enclosed in the email in order to activate your account. 


Please choose a username that is between 3 characters and 255 characters long. 

As for the password, please use a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 72 characters. Please use alphanumeric symbols only (uppercase, lowercase letters, numbers and special characters for example: !?*,.+-)

Do NOT use an email address for your display name. Doing so will result in us possibly blocking your account.  


I didn’t receive a confirmation mail.

Please check your spam folder. If after checking your spam you still can't find an email, try requesting a new confirmation email via this link: Didn't receive confirmation message? The link can also be found on the login page underneath the login button.
Another very common reason that users do not receive a confirmation email is that they entered their email address incorrectly when signing up. Please try again with the correct email address.

Can you use the shipping information registered to my PayPal account?

Otsukai temporarily shares your name, address and phone number to the Friend so that they can send your item to you. The only information shared is what you registered to Otsukai at the time you made the purchase. We do NOT share any information related to your PayPal account. Please make sure that the address you have registered to Otsukai is the one you want items to be sent to. 

    Please read our Privacy Policy for more information on the sharing of your information.


Why do I need to enter my phone number?

Your friend will add your phone number to the shipping label when they ship your item. This will allow the shipping company to contact you by phone if there is a problem. Please make sure your phone number is prefaced with the correct country code.


Who can see my shipping address and phone number?

Only the Friend whose offer you accepted will be able to see your shipping address and phone number. The details will be displayed to them from the time you complete the payment to the time they mark the item as shipped. They will not be able to access your details again after they have shipped the item. 

The admin team will be able to access your details only if it is deemed necessary. Please read our Privacy Policy for more information.


I accepted an offer but I noticed a mistake in my address / I moved house. Can I change it?

If you accept an offer, the Friend will only be able to see the address you had set at the time you made the purchase. You cannot change your address while you have an order in progress. Please make sure to check and double-check your phone and contact number BEFORE you accept any offers. 

In the case that you do notice a mistake in your address while you are waiting for an order to be shipped, please create a support ticket immediately. Make sure you include your username, the URL of your Request, your old address, and new address in the ticket. We can try to contact the Friend before they send the item. However, we do not take any responsibility if you do not receive the item due to your own error.

If you ordered a pre-order item and your address changes, please let us know by creating a support ticket

If you don't have any orders in progress you can change your address at any time.
