BC Card Builds 'Green Force' at Goodwill Store, a Workplace for People with Disabilities

Green Card Exclusive Payment System 'GreenForce' Established
Earn EcoMoney Points When Purchasing Eco-Friendly Products

[Asia Economy Reporter Ki Ha-young] BC Card announced on the 20th that it has completed the establishment of the Green Card exclusive payment system 'GreenPOS' at Goodwill Store, a recycling store employing people with disabilities.

GreenPOS, developed in collaboration between BC Card and the Korea Environmental Industry & Technology Institute, is a system that accumulates a certain percentage of the payment amount as Eco Money points when purchasing eco-friendly products with a Green Card. The card payment terminal automatically recognizes eco-friendly certification marks (environmental label, low carbon, carbon footprint) products and processes the payment. It is currently applied at about 40,000 affiliated stores nationwide, including Galleria Department Store, Hanaro Mart, and CU convenience stores.

The Goodwill Store, where GreenPOS has been applied, is a recycling store operated by the Milal Welfare Foundation. It commercializes and sells clothing, books, home appliances, and other items donated by individuals, companies, and institutions to consumers. Currently, it provides jobs and supports independence for about 250 people with disabilities at nine locations nationwide.

BC Card is also running a 10% Eco Money accumulation event until November 30. When purchasing items at Goodwill Store with a BC Green Card, 5% of the payment amount is accumulated as Eco Money points by default, and an additional 5% is specially accumulated on all items. Furthermore, among customers who purchase with the BC Green Card, the first 50 people at each store will receive a seal tumbler using the Green Card mascot.
