5. In the Shop Status set the following:

Shop Status = INACTIVE

Enable my Product Pages = UNCHECK

Use my Content = DISABLED

6.Don't forget to click the SAVE button 

7. You’re done! Wait at least 24 hours for the change to effect.

Note, you can also contact the Rakuten support team and ask them nicely to deactivate meanwhile your storefront.
