Gochang-gun Expands Support Program for Credit Card Fees of Small Business Owners

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Jaegil] Gochang-gun, Jeonbuk announced on the 19th that it will expand the ‘Small Business Card Fee Support Project’ to help small business owners struggling due to the impact of COVID-19.

The card fee support, which was previously provided only to small business owners with annual sales of 120 million won or less, will be expanded to include those with annual sales of up to 300 million won.

The project supports 0.8% of card sales, up to a maximum of 500,000 won. Applicants must prepare a copy of their bankbook, business registration certificate, proof of last year’s sales, and proof of last year’s card sales, and apply through the Gochang-gun Office’s Win-Win Economy Division or the relevant eup/myeon office.

The ongoing 2018 card fee support will continue until the end of May, and from June this year, card fee support will be continuously promoted based on 2019 sales.

An official from the county said, “We hope this will be of some help to small business owners who have been affected by the spread of the coronavirus,” and added, “We will do our best to prepare support measures for small business owners who are struggling due to the economic downturn.”
