“Stop High Fees!” Yangsan City Aims for Two Birds with One Stone through ‘Baedal Yangsan’

Open on the 17th, Orders Available via 'Baedal Yangsan' in Yangsan Sarang Card App
Various Opening Coupon Events Held to Promote Delivery Orders

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] The delivery order service linked to Yangsan Love Card, a local currency of Yangsan City, Gyeongnam, called ‘Delivery Yangsan,’ will be launched on the 17th.

Delivery Yangsan is a low-fee service developed by the city to reduce the high commission fees (up to 15%) of private delivery apps, and merchant recruitment has been underway since May.

Currently, over 600 merchants have applied, and the service will open starting with about 300 merchants who have completed program installation, aiming to have 1,800 stores registered by the end of the year.

Ahead of the launch, the city held a demonstration on the 15th with participants including the president of the Small Business Association, heads of the food service and bakery branches, youth leaders, and local mom cafes.

Since there is no need to install a separate app, orders can be placed easily, and the high participation rate of merchants along with Happy Together merchant discounts and coupon events have led to positive reviews that Delivery Yangsan will quickly take root.

Additionally, to increase Delivery Yangsan order rates, various coupon events will be held from the opening day, and a dedicated guide page for ‘Delivery Yangsan’ will be opened on the city hall website, with promotional activities linked to mom cafes, SNS promotions using card news, and leaflet production.

A Yangsan City official said, “The benefits from the city’s low commission fees are returned to citizens in the form of additional discounts, and citizens can increase merchant sales through ‘Delivery Yangsan’ orders, creating a win-win system,” adding, “Since consumers can receive up to 15% discount benefits (10% charging, additional 1-5% discount), we ask for your active use.”
