Gyeonggi Province's Baedal Teukgeup Records 13.1 Billion Won in September Transactions, Up 32% from Previous Month

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Park No-hun] Gyeonggi Province's public delivery app 'Baedal Teukgeup' has recorded its highest monthly cumulative transaction volume through service area expansion and continued acquisition of new members.

Gyeonggi Province Corporation announced on October 1st that cumulative transactions for September exceeded approximately 13.1 billion won, marking the highest monthly transaction volume on record.

This represents approximately 32% growth compared to August's monthly transaction volume, with the number of monthly transactions also increasing by more than 125,000 cases, showing a steep upward trend.

Behind this growth are the influx of new members from service area expansion and season-specific events. Baedal Teukgeup officially launched services in Hanam and Namyangju in September and is currently operating in 27 cities and counties across the province.

Approximately 550,000 members and 39,800 partner stores are using Baedal Teukgeup, and since its launch in December of last year, it has recorded total accumulated transactions of 65 billion won and approximately 2.55 million cumulative orders.

Various one-hundred-won deal events by municipalities linked to agricultural and specialty products or tourist attractions, as well as seasonal promotions launched for the Chuseok holiday, received significant love from consumers.

In particular, the ability to use the fifth round of disaster relief funds immediately on the public delivery app greatly contributed to activating Baedal Teukgeup.

Daily transaction volume surged by approximately 200% compared to the previous week in just the first weekend of disaster relief fund distribution.

Gyeonggi Province Corporation is accelerating preparations to introduce Baedal Teukgeup services in 30 municipalities by the end of the year. It plans to strengthen 'win-win platform' branding through customized promotions and events for partner stores and consumers in each region.

Lee Seok-hun, CEO of Gyeonggi Province Corporation, stated, "Baedal Teukgeup, born for small business owners and consumers, is gaining love from many people and establishing its position in the market," adding, "We will continue to make efforts so that many people can benefit through 'conscious consumption' via Baedal Teukgeup."
