'Daegu-style Delivery App' Pilot Operation in June ... Daegu City Holds Contest for 'Delivery App Name'

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Dong-wook] Daegu City announced that it will hold a contest to name the 'Daegu-style Delivery App' together with Inseong Data Co., Ltd., selected as the service operator for the 'Daegu-style Delivery App'.

The contest will be held through the website of the operating company Inseong Data until April 4. Anyone who is a citizen of Daegu is eligible to participate.

The operating company will judge based on usability (popularity), creativity, clarity, and story, awarding ▲1st place (1 person) 3 million KRW ▲2nd place (1 person) 1 million KRW ▲3rd place (1 person) 500,000 KRW. Additionally, 600 participants will be selected by lottery to receive 20,000 KRW each in local love gift certificates (Happiness Pay).

The Daegu-style delivery app project was initiated to reduce the burden on local small business owners who are struggling due to COVID-19 and excessive commission fees charged by large private delivery platform companies.

Inseong Data Co., Ltd., selected through the service operator contest, is responsible for development and operation, while Daegu City provides indirect support such as promotion. The Daegu-style delivery app, preparing for a pilot operation in June this year, will lower the food order mediation commission fee from the current 6-13% range to around 2%, and will not charge additional advertising fees or franchise fees.

Jung Eui-gwan, Director of the Economic Bureau of Daegu City, stated, "We hope that the Daegu-style delivery app will activate citizens' good consumption for small business owners, becoming an opportunity for both small business owners and citizens to coexist."
