Emart Introduces Automatic 'Carbon Accumulation Practice Points' System

Emart Launches Carbon Neutral Practice Point Accumulation System.

[Asia Economy Reporter Jeon Jinyoung] Emart announced on the 22nd that starting from the 23rd, it will open a system where points are automatically accumulated when practicing carbon neutrality at Emart.

After signing up on the Carbon Neutral Practice Points website, when customers purchase products linked to carbon neutral practice points at Emart or issue a mobile receipt and accumulate Shinsegae points, the system automatically links and accumulates points.

The accumulated points can be checked on the website in May, and each month, customers can choose to receive the points as cash or credit card points.

Methods to accumulate points at Emart include ▲ issuing electronic receipts (100 KRW per time) ▲ purchasing eco-friendly products with a Green Card (1,000 KRW per time) ▲ using the refill station (2,000 KRW per time), with a maximum annual payout of 70,000 KRW.

To issue electronic receipts, customers can set ‘Receive mobile receipt only’ through the Emart application (app).

Since September 2020, Emart and Emart Traders have been operating the ‘Eco Refill Station,’ where customers can refill and purchase eco-friendly laundry detergent and fabric softener, as a joint pilot project with the Ministry of Environment and Sugar Bubble.

Hyuntaejun Hyeong, Head of Emart’s Sustainable Innovation Center, said, “We have taken the lead in establishing an automatic accumulation system so that customers can practice carbon neutrality activities in their daily lives and receive incentives,” adding, “We will strengthen ESG management by expanding various eco-friendly projects to fulfill our social responsibilities.”
