[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Song Jong-gu] Goseong-gun, Gyeongnam Province, is expanding the issuance of Goseong Love Gift Certificates to 2.9 billion KRW, an increase of 900 million KRW compared to last month, throughout September to revitalize the local economy and benefit consumers during the Chuseok holiday.

From September 1, paper gift certificates worth 1.3 billion KRW, mobile gift certificates worth 1.4 billion KRW, and card gift certificates worth 200 million KRW will be sold at a 10% discount. The individual purchase limit is 300,000 KRW combined for paper and card gift certificates, while mobile gift certificates can be purchased separately up to 400,000 KRW.

Purchasing methods include buying mobile and card-type gift certificates via the ZeroPay app and the local love gift certificate ‘chak’ app starting from 1 a.m., and purchasing paper gift certificates at local financial institutions from 9 a.m.

Sales are on a first-come, first-served basis, and sales will end once the monthly issuance amount is exceeded.

Goseong-gun has been issuing Goseong Love Gift Certificates since 2018 to prevent capital outflow and promote local consumption.

Additionally, this year, a discount sale worth 25.9 billion KRW is being promoted, and 12.7 billion KRW is being issued as policy funds for public officials’ welfare points and citizen support funds to fully revitalize the local economy.
