[Suwon Ilbo=Correspondent Seo Dong-young] Osan City announced on the 4th that it will launch a 'Osaekjeon Grand Chuseok Event' to revitalize the local economy, which has been sluggish due to the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.
To promote the online payment function of the local currency Osaekjeon within the '(tentative name) Public Delivery App' being pursued to protect the rights and interests of small business owners, the city has prepared various events including the distribution of 'free delivery coupons' usable on the public delivery app and 'Osaekjeon 10,000 won vouchers'.
First, in the 'Osaekjeon Excellent Customer Appreciation Event', open to all Osaekjeon users, the city will distribute a total of 1 billion 150 million won in Osan local currency Osaekjeon to 1,900 people at 50,000-100,000 won per person based on accumulated Osaekjeon usage during September.
Additionally, for store owners who pre-register as merchants for the public delivery app scheduled to launch at the end of October, the first 500 applicants will receive 10,000 won in Osaekjeon. For 1,000 users with Osaekjeon usage records during September, delivery coupons worth 10,000 won usable on the public delivery app will be distributed through a lottery.
Mayor Gwak Sang-wook stated, "This event was prepared to boost domestic demand ahead of Chuseok through the promotion of local currency usage," and added, "I hope this becomes an opportunity for citizens to actively use Osan's local currency Osaekjeon and the public delivery app to revitalize the local economy."
Winners will be announced on October 12 through the Osaekjeon website (http://osan.go.kr/money). For more information, visit the Osaekjeon website or contact the City's Local Economy Division (031-8036-8949).
