On the 5th, Damyang-gun, Jeollanam-do announced that the individual purchase limit for the paper-type Damyang Sarang Gift Certificate will be raised from the existing 200,000 won to 500,000 won.

The promotion will run throughout February until the 29th. The card (mobile) purchase limit remains at 500,000 won, and the special discount rate is also maintained at 10%, the same as before.


Purchasing the paper-type Damyang Sarang Gift Certificate and card issuance/recharging are available at 28 local financial institutions, and visitors must bring their ID in person.


If visiting a financial institution is difficult, card application and recharging can be done through the dedicated mobile app 'Chak'.


To ensure healthy distribution of the gift certificates and encourage local consumption while preventing illegal circulation, under the 'Act on the Promotion of Use of Local Love Gift Certificates,' franchise owners are prohibited from purchasing, and exchanging gift certificates received through policy funds is also not allowed.


To this end, the county has established an integrated gift certificate management system and is making every effort to prevent illegal circulation by inspecting purchase and exchange records.



A county official stated, “The gift certificates are a project aimed at the virtuous cycle of the local economy and the recovery of neighborhood markets. We expect that increasing the individual purchase limit for the paper-type Damyang Sarang Gift Certificate will not only promote consumption within the region but also provide economic benefits to residents, contributing to the revitalization of the local economy.”
