Here are some common issues that occur when logging in, along with troubleshooting tips.
What is the difference between a non-updated account and an updated account?
A non-updated account uses a username and password combination. An updated account uses an email and password combination. For example:
- Non-updated Account:
- Username: rakutenadvertising
- Password: *********
- Updated Account
- Email: login@rakutenadvertising.com
- Password: *********
If I have updated my account, can I still log in using my non-updated account (username/password)?
No, you cannot log into the publisher dashboard with your non-updated credentials.
I forgot my email. How can I retrieve it?
Contact Customer Support to retrieve your email.

Hi, I need to change my user name as this has my work email as my user name
Hi David, Please contact Customer Support by email at pubsupport@rakuten.com or using the live chat Support icon at the lower right so they can understand your individual situation and personally assist you to change your user name.
Kim Mei Lim, I checked with our Customer Support team and found that they have indeed communicated with you several times that your login difficulties are due to your account being terminated (cancelled) by our Network Compliance team. Please contact our Network Compliance team at ra-compliance@rakuten.com regarding your account termination - and make sure to include your Rakuten Advertising username and/or SID number. If you also want to request that your information is deleted based on one of the various privacy policies, please reach out to rm-subjectrequests@mail.rakuten.com for assistance with that request.
