Rakuten Ichiba, our Japanese ecommerce site, is named after Rakuichi-Rakuza, the first free and open marketplace in Japan. When used as a verb, raku is written with a Chinese character meaning to enjoy oneself. The same character is used in Rakuten’s name, which means “positive spirit,” because we believe that shopping should always be entertaining. These words symbolize the forward looking nature of our business, hence the name, Rakuten, Inc.
