This score is this site's own. It measures how accessible the lottery is without a large balance — not the chance that you will win. The same calculation is used on the Japanese pages.

The rules here

💰Upfront deposit

Needed at the purchase step, not during book building.

🎯How the lottery works

Late type. The draw covers those who completed the purchase step after the offer price was set.

🆓Fees

No purchase commission.

💻How to apply

Only through the desktop web trading screen. No app, no telephone.

From applying to owning

  1. Apply during book building

    Apply at market or at a specified price within the window. No money is needed yet.

  2. Complete the purchase step

    After the offer price is set, apply within the purchase window. You now need buying power of the offer price multiplied by your shares.

  3. The draw

    It runs on the last day of the purchase window, with results on the trading screen from 13:00.

  4. Check the result

    Winning completes the purchase. Losing releases the funds that were held.

Worth knowing before you apply

  • Once you have completed the purchase step you cannot cancel it or change the number of shares. To change the quantity you must cancel and apply again.
  • Applications work only on the desktop web trading screen — not through a phone app and not by telephone.

Who this suits

  • People who want to decide after seeing results from other brokers, since the draw comes late
  • People adding entries beyond the main online brokers

Why this one

The draw here covers people who completed the purchase step after the offer price was set — a late-type schedule. Because it runs after most other brokers have drawn, you can adjust: skip it because you already won elsewhere, or concentrate on it because you lost everywhere else. That flexibility is the reason to hold an account here.

Money only matters from the purchase step onwards. Book building alone costs nothing, so you can put an application in with a zero balance and decide later.

There is no commission on the purchase if you win. You pay the offer price multiplied by the number of shares and nothing else.

About the company

A securities house founded in 1917, headquartered in Osaka, rooted in the Kansai region but operating nationwide. It acts as an underwriter on listings from time to time, which makes it a reasonable addition to the main online brokers. Applications go through its online service.
