What Is Yahoo! フリマ?
Yahoo! フリマ (Yahoo! Flea Market) is a major Japanese C2C marketplace app backed by the Yahoo! Japan and PayPay ecosystem. It’s the go-to platform for buying and selling secondhand goods — from fashion to electronics to food items — with one standout advantage no other Japanese flea market app offers: free shipping on every item, no exceptions.
The app is fully integrated with PayPay — Japan’s most popular digital payment service. If you’re already using PayPay for daily purchases in Tokyo (convenience stores, restaurants, transit), Yahoo! フリマ plugs right into that same wallet.
Why Yahoo! フリマ Stands Out
Yahoo! フリマ vs. Mercari — Which Should You Use?
Both apps are great — and I actually use both. But here’s how they compare for expats in Japan:
How to Get Started — Step by Step
Use the direct download link or search “Yahoo フリマ” in the App Store or Google Play.
You’ll need a Yahoo! Japan account or a Line account to register. Creating a Yahoo! Japan account takes about 3 minutes and only requires an email or Japanese phone number.
Inside the app, find the referral code (友達紹介コード) section and enter WWYMXZ. This activates your ¥1,000 PayPay points reward — credited after your first qualifying purchase.
Link your PayPay account for instant payments. Add your Japanese delivery address. You’re now ready to shop with free shipping on everything.
What Can You Buy on Yahoo! フリマ?
Fashion, food & drinks (rare regional snacks!), outdoor gear, health products, cosmetics, electronics, furniture, DIY supplies, pet items, baby & kids gear, sports equipment, games, music CDs, and even car parts.
The food category is a genuine differentiator — limited-edition products you’d never find elsewhere, all shipped free. One underrated category for Tokyo expats: baby and kids items. Japanese kids outgrow things fast, and the quality of secondhand baby goods on Yahoo! フリマ is excellent.
How to Sell on Yahoo! フリマ
With only a 5% seller fee, Yahoo! フリマ is one of the most profitable platforms to sell on in Japan. Here’s how to get started:
3–5 photos from different angles, in good lighting. Show the item honestly — Japanese buyers check condition carefully and rate sellers on accuracy.
Include brand name, size, condition (新品/中古/美品 etc.), and any notable details. Use Google Translate to help write in Japanese — even a short description significantly boosts visibility.
Browse similar sold items to calibrate. Remember: buyers see the price as final (free shipping included). 5% comes off the top as the platform fee.
Once sold, ship using the prepaid label at any convenience store. After the buyer confirms receipt, your earnings land in your PayPay account instantly.
Expat Tips for Yahoo! フリマ
Yahoo! フリマ returns far more results for Japanese keywords. Use DeepL or Google Translate to get the right search term before browsing.
Rare regional snacks, limited edition items, and imported goods you can’t find in regular stores — all shipped free. This is a hidden gem most expats miss.
Before your first purchase, make sure PayPay is connected. It’s the fastest and most seamless payment method on the platform.
For popular items, check prices on both apps. Free shipping on Yahoo! フリマ often makes the effective cost lower even if the listed price looks slightly higher.
Yahoo! フリマ has a dedicated brand-filter search. If you’re hunting for a specific label (Uniqlo, Supreme, Nike), this narrows results dramatically.
Always check the seller’s rating and number of transactions before buying. Japanese sellers with 100+ transactions are almost always reliable.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Yahoo! フリマ referral code for ¥1,000?
The referral code is WWYMXZ. Download the Yahoo! フリマ app, enter this code in the referral section (友達紹介コード), and make your first purchase to receive ¥1,000 in PayPay points. Limited period — terms apply.
Can foreigners and expats use Yahoo! フリマ in Japan?
Yes! Yahoo! フリマ is available to anyone living in Japan with a Japanese delivery address. You need a Yahoo! Japan account or Line account to register. PayPay integration makes payments seamless. The app is in Japanese but Google Translate helps for searching and listing.
Does Yahoo! フリマ really offer free shipping on everything?
Yes — 全品送料無料 (free shipping on all items) is Yahoo! フリマ’s key differentiator. Every single item listed ships for free. No surprise charges at checkout, ever. This makes the effective cost often lower than Mercari even if the listed price looks slightly higher.
How much does Yahoo! フリマ charge in seller fees?
Yahoo! フリマ charges only 5% commission on sold items — half of what Mercari charges (10%). This makes it one of the most profitable platforms to sell secondhand goods in Japan.
Yahoo! フリマ vs Mercari — which is better for expats?
Both are great for different reasons. Yahoo! フリマ wins for: free shipping on everything, lower seller fees (5% vs 10%), larger new user bonus (¥1,000 vs ¥500), PayPay integration. Mercari wins for: larger user base, better for anime/collectibles. Most expats use both apps.
Can I buy from Yahoo! フリマ if I live outside Japan?
Yahoo! フリマ is designed for people living in Japan with a Japanese address. If you live outside Japan and want to buy items from Yahoo! フリマ, you can use our proxy service Tokyo Buy For You — Peter from TIFE will personally purchase and ship the item to your country starting from $15/order.
