Gangnam-gu, Seoul (District Mayor Jo Seong-myeong) will hold a 10 billion KRW payback event starting from the 1st of next month until the budget is exhausted, offering a 5% refund when using the Gangnam Love Gift Certificate.


As of the end of July, the unused balance of the Gangnam Love Gift Certificate is 33.7 billion KRW. The district plans to promote the use of these dormant gift certificates to revitalize the local economy ahead of the Chuseok holiday. From the consumer's perspective, when purchasing the gift certificate, they can experience a total discount rate of 10%, combining a 5% purchase discount with an additional 5% payback.


During the event period, if payment is made using the Gangnam Love Gift Certificate at approximately 20,000 Seoul Pay affiliated stores, 5% of the payment amount will be paid back as the same mobile gift certificate on the 10th of the following month.


The payback gift certificates can be received through the "Receive Gift" feature on the Seoul Pay Plus KakaoTalk channel and the Seoul Pay Plus app. The event period is until October 31 of this year, but it may end early if the budget is depleted.



District Mayor Jo Seong-myeong stated, “The payback event is expected to create a synergy effect with the 30 billion KRW worth of gift certificates to be issued in September ahead of the Chuseok holiday,” and added, “I hope this event will ease the financial burden on households during these difficult times of high inflation and help increase sales for small business owners.”
