Osan City Prepares Year-End Discount Benefits for Osaekjeon Local Currency

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Park Chan-hyuk] Osan City is implementing the '2025 Osaekjeon Year-End Appreciation Special Event' to express gratitude to citizens who have used the local currency throughout the year and to revitalize year-end consumer spending.

The event will run for three days from the 29th to the 31st. During the event period, customers who make payments with Osaekjeon at local merchant establishments in the city will receive 15% of their transaction amount as post-cashback. The maximum limit per person is 15,000 won, and the post-cashback must be used within three months from the payment date.

If the usage period expires, it will be automatically forfeited. If the consumer support funds are fully exhausted, the event may end early.

The benefit structure is simple. During the event period, customers who make payments with Osaekjeon at merchant establishments in the city will receive 15% of their transaction amount as post-cashback, with a maximum payment of 15,000 won per person. Citizens can experience additional benefits simply by paying for everyday consumption such as year-end shopping and dining with local currency.

This year-end appreciation event also overlaps with existing Osaekjeon charging incentives (10%) and national budget rapid execution excellence municipality selection commemorative use benefits (5%). Accordingly, citizens can receive benefits totaling up to 30% during the year-end period, equivalent to a maximum of 215,000 won.

The event is focused on reducing citizens' cost of living during the year-end consumption season and adding substantive sales recovery effects to local commercial areas.

Mayor Lee Kwon-jae said, "We have prepared this event to express our gratitude to all citizens who have consistently used Osaekjeon as we head into year-end," and added, "We hope that the use of local currency naturally leads to local commercial areas, providing warmth to the year-end neighborhood economy."
