Fruitmail Complete Guide 2026 — A PC-only veteran site today
What Fruitmail is
Fruitmail is Japan's most veteran point site, launched by Open Smile Inc. in 1999. "Earn points just by receiving email" — it's a rare survivor that still carries the thinking of the dial-up era.
Bottom line first: Fruitmail is PC-only. With no mobile support, it's a "sub-of-a-sub" in modern point activity. But for veteran users who want to collect small change via click-mail / sweepstakes / surveys, it has its own niche value.

The email / sweepstakes angle
Fruitmail's mainstay is "click-mail": click the link in the daily emails to earn a few points — an ultra-primitive point system. At 1–3 pt (0.1–0.3 yen) per mail the unit price is rock-bottom, but on busy days 50–100 emails arrive, so it adds up to a few hundred to 1,000 yen a month.
The sweepstakes corner is another distinctive element. You can enter dozens to hundreds of sweepstakes each month, and winners receive cash / gift cards / goods. This "point-activity-meets-sweepstakes hybrid" is exactly why the veteran generation has stuck with it.
How to sign up
Open the official Fruitmail site in a PC browser → enter your email → receive the verification mail → fill in your profile. There's no mobile app, so access via PC or tablet is the premise.
Where it stands in 2026
Honestly, is Fruitmail essential in modern point activity? No. Against the big three — Moppy / Hapitas / Pointtown — it trails on offer count, rates and cash-out routes across the board.
The niche value that remains:
- The stability of 20+ years of operation
- A slice of veteran users who want to keep doing "email-receipt point activity"
- Users who also want to enter sweepstakes
New point-activity users needn't prioritize it — its place is roughly "register the big three first → then, if you have room".
