Upload your pack to LINE

Last updated: 2026-05-12

Pikkot produces a zip that already conforms to LINE's static-sticker spec — 370×320 max, 10-px transparent margin, even dimensions, alpha channel, ≤ 1 MB per PNG. This page covers everything outside the zip: the LINE account, the seller profile, the review process, and what to do when LINE rejects a pack.

Before you pay Pikkot

These four things are required to monetise on LINE. If you don't have all of them yet, you can still buy a pack from us — but you won't be able to publish it until they're in place.

A LINE account (the regular consumer app — your phone number works).
A LINE Creators Market account. Sign in once at creator.line.me with your LINE account and accept the Creator terms.
At least one Provider. A Provider is the legal name that appears on the sticker page as the seller. It can be your real name, an artist alias, or a company. You create it in My Page → Provider list. Once created, the name is hard to change — pick what you want listed publicly.
A bank account for LINE payouts (only if you intend to sell, not give away). LINE pays creators only after total unpaid earnings reach 1,000 JPY (or roughly the equivalent in TWD / USD). Bank details go in My Page → Sales reports → Transfer. Japanese banks and major international banks both work; transfers happen monthly.

Pikkot doesn't see, store, or transmit any of these to LINE on your behalf. The transaction is between you and LINE.

The submission flow

Once a pack is ready in your Pikkot dashboard, click Submit to LINE. That page walks you through:

Downloading the LINE-ready zip from Pikkot.
Opening LINE Creators Market in a new tab.
Copy-pasting the auto-generated title / description / tags / category / copyright into LINE's form (English + 繁體中文 + 日本語 are all prepared).
Setting the price (40 / 80 / 120 / 250 LINE Coins) and submitting.

LINE accepts only sets of 8, 16, 24, 32, or 40 stickers. Pikkot's 4-sticker Mini pack is a Pikkot-only product — you cannot list it on LINE Creators Market.

Pricing on LINE

LINE prices stickers in LINE Coins. Common tiers (subject to LINE changes):

50 coins (~JPY 120, ~TWD 30) — entry-level price for 8 / 16 / 24 sets.
100 coins (~JPY 240) — standard for 40-sticker sets and most paid packs.
120 / 240 / 370 coins — higher tiers, typically reserved for celebrity / IP-licensed packs.

LINE's revenue split is published at creator.line.me: roughly 50% to the creator after Apple/Google's 30% in-app cut. The exact number depends on the buyer's platform (LINE web shop pays creators more than the iOS/Android in-app stores).

Review timeline

3–7 business days for a standard sticker pack.
You'll get an email at the LINE-account address when a decision lands. There's no progress indicator in the meantime — silence is normal.
During holiday periods (Japanese Golden Week, Lunar New Year, year-end) the queue can stretch to 10+ days.

What LINE rejects most often

LINE's reviewers are people. Some rejections feel arbitrary; most fall into one of the patterns below. If you get rejected, LINE sends a short reason code — find it in the rejection email or in My Page → Status.

Likeness or third-party IP

LINE rejects packs that look like real people you can't prove you have permission to depict — celebrities, public officials, characters from other brands, copyrighted logos. If you uploaded a photo of yourself or a friend, that's fine. If the AI-rendered output happens to resemble a famous person, LINE may still reject. Re-roll the offending stickers in Pikkot with a different style and resubmit.

Text inside stickers

Captions are allowed but LINE has limits on language and content. Pikkot adds Japanese / Chinese / English captions when you ask for them; LINE may reject sticker text that:

contains URLs, contact info, or social-media handles
references competing platforms (e.g. WhatsApp, KakaoTalk) in the artwork itself
uses profanity, slurs, or sexual language
contains long blocks of text that read like an advertisement

Image quality issues

Technical defects LINE flags: pixelation, watermarks (from the source photo), heavy artefacts at sticker edges, unreadable captions, characters cropped at the edges. Pikkot's pipeline strips watermarks aggressively, but if you uploaded a photo that already had a visible logo, we may not be able to remove it cleanly. Regenerate the affected slots before resubmitting.

Suggestive or violent content

LINE's content gate is stricter than ours. Anything sexual, gory, or that depicts drug use will be rejected even if our pre-generation moderation let it through. We're working to keep the two thresholds aligned — if you hit this rejection on a pack we accepted, email hi@pikkot.com with the rejection notice and we'll cover a re-roll.

Resubmitting after a rejection

Open the pack in Pikkot and click Regenerate on the offending stickers (per-sticker re-roll uses 1 unit from your monthly quota).
Wait for the new versions to finish. The zip on your Submit to LINE page is rebuilt automatically with the new stickers.
Re-upload the new zip in LINE Creators Market (you don't re-create the submission — open the rejected one and replace the assets, then re-submit).

Refund policy if LINE rejects

Pikkot's refund policy on LINE rejections is described in our Terms of Service. In short:

If LINE rejects for a technical reason (wrong dimensions, bad alpha, file size) — that's our bug. We refund or regenerate at our expense.
If LINE rejects for a content / IP reason — we provide a free re-roll of the affected stickers. The pack itself is non-refundable since you received the artwork.
If your pack is rejected three times in a row for content reasons on stickers we generated, we will refund the entire pack.

Email hi@pikkot.com with the rejection notice from LINE (a screenshot of the My Page status row is enough). We respond within 1 business day.

Region-specific notes

Taiwan creators

You can submit using a personal LINE account; the Provider name can be your real name or an alias. Payouts to a Taiwanese bank account are supported. Taiwan-issued e-invoices for LINE payouts come from LINE Plus Corporation (Korea entity), not from us — direct any invoice questions to LINE support.

Japanese creators

Same flow as Taiwan. The Japanese tax treatment of LINE payouts is described in LINE's creator FAQ — we cannot give tax advice.

Other regions

LINE Creators Market accepts submissions globally. Payouts to non-Japanese, non-Taiwanese banks may go through a different LINE entity (LINE Plus / LINE Friends). The bank-transfer UI on creator.line.me will show the supported countries when you set up payout.

Still stuck?

Send us the rejection notice (or just a screenshot of the My Page status row) at hi@pikkot.com. Include your pack id (visible at the bottom of the Submit to LINE page) and we'll walk through it with you.
