What you pay at signing
One-time charges are separate from both the device price and your monthly bill.
Set by the carrier and the procedure channel. Major-brand shop fees are often ¥4,950, while online fees range from free to ¥3,850 or more. Check the exact new-contract, MNP, SIM/eSIM or plan-change procedure.
Buong paliwanagAn extra amount some agency shops and retailers add on top of the device price. Set by the shop, not the carrier — it can differ, or be zero, at another shop or online. Ask "is there a 頭金?" before you agree.
Buong paliwanagIssuing or using MNP is generally free, but the new carrier may charge its ordinary contract handling fee. Check both carriers and the application channel.
Buong paliwanagSeveral current plans charge a small fee when a newly opened line is cancelled within 12 months. The amount and start-date rule differ by plan. Device installments, options and same-month cancellation charges are separate.
Buong paliwanagContent & subscription options
You can attach video, music and other subscriptions to your mobile contract so they land on one bill.
- Examples
- Sariling unlimited-video pack ng carrier, o bundled o diskuwentong third-party service gaya ng Netflix, Disney+, DAZN, Amazon Prime Video, Lemino o Hulu.
- Paano ito sinisingil
- Idinadagdag bilang hiwalay na item sa buwanang mobile bill. Ang ilan ay kasama sa mas mataas na plan tier sa halip na singilin nang hiwalay.
- Abangan
- Marami ang libre o kalahating presyo sa unang 1–6 buwan, pagkatapos ay awtomatikong babalik sa buong presyo. Magtakda ng paalala.
- Examples
- Unlimited-music pack ng carrier, o bundled o diskuwentong serbisyo gaya ng Apple Music, Spotify, Amazon Music o carrier-branded na serbisyo.
- Paano ito sinisingil
- Sinisingil sa mobile bill o kasama sa plan tier. Minsan hindi ibinabawas sa data allowance ang data ng bundled app.
- Abangan
- Tingnan kung kailangan ng partikular na plano ang diskuwento at kung ano ang mangyayari sa naka-save na playlist kapag kinansela.
- Examples
- Mga point-program tie-in (d POINT, Ponta, PayPay points, Rakuten points) at shopping benefit ng carrier group.
- Paano ito sinisingil
- Karaniwang walang hiwalay na bayad; dagdag na points o diskuwento ang benepisyo sa mga tindahan at app ng grupo.
- Abangan
- Madalas may expiration ang points at maaaring magamit lamang sa ecosystem ng kumpanyang iyon.
- Examples
- Warranty o repair support ng handset, cloud photo storage, security app at ID service na gumagamit ng numero ng telepono.
- Paano ito sinisingil
- Buwanang bayad sa mobile bill. Karaniwang kailangang idagdag ang warranty plan sa oras ng pagbili ng device.
- Abangan
- May campaign na nangangailangang idagdag ang isa sa mga ito sa unang buwan. Kanselahin pagkatapos kung hindi kailangan.

Common questions
How much does a mobile plan cost in Japan?
Your monthly bill is the plan (data and calls), any device installment, and any paid options — the plan and the device are separate costs. Undiscounted plan prices and standard call options for the nine brands this guide covers are listed in the current plan catalog.
What one-time fees are charged when I sign?
A contract handling fee — often around ¥4,950 at major-brand shops, and free to ¥3,850 or more online — and, at some agency shops, a shop "down payment" (頭金) added on top of the device price. Device installments, options and any same-month cancellation charge are separate from these.
What is a 頭金 (shop down payment)?
An extra amount some sales channels add on top of the phone price. It is decided by the individual shop or agency, not the carrier, so the same phone can cost more — or nothing extra — at another shop, a directly-run store or online. You can ask what it is and whether it can be removed.
Is there a cancellation fee?
Several current plans charge a small fee — commonly up to ¥1,100 — when a newly opened line is cancelled within about 12 months. The amount and the start-date rule differ by plan, and 8-day initial cancellation is excluded. Device installments and same-month charges are separate.
Is a shop or an online plan cheaper?
An online-focused plan often has no handling fee and no shop down payment, which can outweigh a small monthly price difference — but only if you are able to do the application, plan changes and support yourself, in a language you understand.
What is the difference between the device price and the service price?
The device is the hardware, often paid in monthly installments; the service is the plan you pay every month. They are separate agreements. Cancelling the service does not clear a device installment, and a "¥1" device offer changes only the device side of the bill.
