[Sejong=Asia Economy Reporter Moon Chaeseok] The policy that provides refunds or billing discounts from card companies when ordering four times through delivery applications (apps) at home will end on the 21st.


The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs announced on the 15th that the support project for dining discounts through delivery app orders and payments will conclude on the 21st.


Applications for participation in the event will be accepted until the 16th. For citizens who have applied, dining through delivery apps will be recognized as valid performance until the 21st.


The main point is that consumers first apply on the card company’s website or app, then order and pay at least 20,000 won (based on the final payment amount) four times through the delivery app, and the card company refunds 10,000 won.


Card companies participating in the event include KB Kookmin, NH Nonghyup, Lotte, BC, Samsung, Shinhan, Woori, Hana, and Hyundai Card.


The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs plans to resume the project this year after the event ends. Existing applications and payment records will be recognized as they are at that time.


They also plan to consult with quarantine authorities to recognize in-person dining performance in this year’s project.


Additionally, they intend to coordinate with local governments so that various regional currencies and public delivery apps can participate in the event.


This year’s budget scale is 66 billion won, double last year’s 33 billion won.


No Suhyun, Food Industry Policy Officer at the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs, stated, "We plan to promote the dining discount support project to help the dining industry struggling due to COVID-19."



No, the policy officer, also requested, "We ask for the public’s great interest and participation when the rollover project ends and the next project is launched."
