This showed twice the sales speed compared to the 15% discount issuance of card-type gift certificates implemented during the last Lunar New Year holiday, despite doubling the amount issued.

In particular, inquiries about merchant registration where the gift certificates could be used during the event period and new card issuance surged, with a total of 3,535 cards issued and 31 new merchants registered, which is expected to greatly contribute to alleviating the financial burden on low-income households and increasing sales for small business owners.

A city official stated, “With the special discount sold out and additional purchase inquiries flooding in, we have reaffirmed citizens’ strong interest in the card-type Yeosu Love Gift Certificates,” adding, “We will actively consider a 15% discount for the upcoming Chuseok holiday and do our best to expand the number of participating merchants.”
