[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam announced on the 4th that it will hold the Hapcheon Sarang Card event until May 31.

The event, aimed at the early settlement of the Hapcheon Sarang Card, a card-type local currency launched on April 2, and revitalization of the local economy, is divided into two types: the Hapcheon Sarang Card cashback event and the Hapcheon Sarang Card issuance event.

First, the Hapcheon Sarang Card cashback event gives 5% cashback on the payment amount during the event period until the 31st, and automatic participation is granted if the cumulative payment amount during the period is 200,000 KRW or more.

Participants in the event can enjoy a total benefit of 15%, as they receive both a 10% discount on Hapcheon Sarang gift certificates and 5% cashback.

The second event, the Hapcheon Sarang Card issuance event, is a lottery where those who issue a card during the event period are entered, and the prize money is charged to the card.

This event is retroactively applied to those who issued cards after April 2, and through a lottery, three winners will be selected: the first prize winner will receive 500,000 KRW, the second prize 300,000 KRW, and the third prize 200,000 KRW charged to their cards.

The Hapcheon Sarang Card can be issued and recharged through the mobile app ‘Local Gift Certificate chak’, and for residents who have difficulty using mobile devices, issuance and recharge services are provided at local agricultural and livestock cooperatives.

A county official said, “We hope this event will firmly establish the Hapcheon Sarang Card as a local currency,” and added, “We will strive to recover consumer sentiment and the local economy, which have been depressed due to COVID-19, by promoting card usage. We also ask residents to continue using the Hapcheon Sarang Card to revitalize the local small business economy.”
