Gwangyang-si to Host Events for Seol Holiday Celebration

15% Discount on Gwangyang Sarang Gift Certificates for February

Monthly Purchase Limit Raised to 1 Million Won per Person

Gwangyang City in Jeollanam-do announced that it will hold an event from February 1 to 29 to increase the discount rate of the Gwangyang Love Gift Certificate from 10% to 15% and raise the monthly purchase limit per person from 700,000 KRW to 1,000,000 KRW.

The city plans to stimulate consumption during the Lunar New Year holiday and revitalize the local economy by temporarily raising the discount rate and purchase limit for the month of February.

Currently, the Gwangyang Love Gift Certificate operates as a rechargeable card with a purchase limit of 700,000 KRW per person, offering a 10% cashback on the amount spent.

Previously, users could accumulate up to 70,000 KRW in cashback per month, but through this event, they will be able to accumulate up to 150,000 KRW in cashback.

This event supports cashback only for amounts spent during February, and does not apply to cases where only the gift certificate is purchased (recharged).

Additionally, as before, payments are restricted at merchants with annual sales exceeding 3 billion KRW, and the holding limit is capped at 1,500,000 KRW.

Heo Jeong-ryang, Director of the Investment and Economy Division, said, “This event will be a pleasant surprise that brings warmth to the local economy, which has been sluggish due to cold weather, high inflation, high exchange rates, and high interest rates,” adding, “We hope that through the activation of the Gwangyang Love Gift Certificate, both citizens and small business owners will have a prosperous new year.”

Subscription and recharging of the Gwangyang Love Gift Certificate can be done through the Chak app and at NongHyup, Gwangju Bank, Gwangyang Saemaeul Geumgo, and ShinHyup located in Gwangyang City.
