경기지역화폐 가맹점 신청These days, housing costs, food costs, transportation costs, and even utility bills are all burdensome due to rising prices. Although the tech culture of saving even small amounts of money is popular, we recommend local love gift certificates as a more efficient and convenient way to save on living expenses.
Local Love Gift Certificates are local currency that have been issued since 2017 and are distributed only within the issuing region. Local currency can only be used within the local government, so it plays a significant role in revitalizing the local economy. Accordingly, each local government is issuing a variety of local currencies, and we would like to learn about the Gyeonggi local currency, which is the most actively used.
Gyeonggi local currency is a gift certificate issued by 31 cities and counties in Gyeonggi-do, and is used to increase sales and revitalize the economy in traditional markets and small businesses in each region. These local currencies provide many benefits to households. This is because of the incentive system of 6-10% of Gyeonggi local currency.
For example, you can purchase gift certificates with Gyeonggi local currency at a 6-10% discount from the regular price.
When purchasing local currency with a discount rate of 6%, it can be organized as follows.
Local currency purchase amount: 100,000 won
Discount amount: 6,000 won
Actual purchase amount: 94,000 won
If you use more than 60% of the local currency recharge amount, you can receive a refund through your registered account. (However, if the balance is less than 10,000 won, a refund is possible if more than 80% is used)
In addition, a discount rate of up to 10% is provided during holidays or certain seasons, so the benefits are greater than card company discounts or savings, and cash receipts can be issued, so you can also receive a 30% income tax deduction. These benefits are even more useful if you frequently spend within Gyeonggi-do, as you can receive more refunds at year-end tax settlement by using Gyeonggi local currency.
In addition, Gyeonggi-do local currency can be purchased and consumed even if the purchaser lives outside of Gyeonggi-do, and can be used as a gift after purchase, so it can be used for various purposes. Therefore, Gyeonggi local currency is a very useful gift certificate, and many people use it not only to contribute to the local economy but also for the economic benefit of the household.
Gyeonggi local currency incentives need to be checked every month because the discount rate and monthly purchase limit are different for each local government. Since the incentive policy is carried out within the secured budget of the local government, you must check the policy of each local government.
They typically offer incentives of 6-10% of the purchase price.

Gyeonggi-do regional currency can be purchased in three forms depending on the policies of each city or county.
The paper type is mainly used by seniors who have difficulty using mobile devices, and they are often purchased as gifts. The card type is used in many cities and counties in Gyeonggi-do, and once you purchase a card and install the app, you can continuously charge it and use it like a check card. However, the process of downloading the app, signing up for membership, applying for and receiving a card, and registering a card is a bit cumbersome and complicated.
The advantage of the card type is that it can be continuously recharged and can be used conveniently like a check card.
The disadvantage of the card type is that the membership registration, card application, receipt, and registration process after installing the app is cumbersome.
The mobile type is a method that allows you to pay immediately by installing the mobile app, charging within the app, and scanning the QR code provided at the store. It is similar to how many people use Kakao Pay or Naver Pay, so it is easy to use. However, it is disappointing because it can still be used only in Gimpo-si, Seongnam-si, and Siheung-si.
Not all local governments in Gyeonggi-do are managed through the same app. First, search for “local gift certificate chak” in the App Store for Seongnam-si and Siheung-si and install it.
Except for Seongnam-si and Siheung-si, it can be used as the “Gyeonggi Local Currency” app in Nameo-si.
Basically, it can only be used at places registered as local currency affiliates within the relevant local government.
■ Major franchise industries
1) Traditional markets, alley commercial areas
2) Leisure facilities (health club, Pilates, swimming pool, golf driving range, bowling alley)
3) Hospitals, clinics, animal hospitals
4) Convenience store
5) Academy
6) Opticians, beauty salons
7) Gas station
In addition, it can be used by companies registered as affiliates.
Since the main purpose of local currency issuance is to help local small business owners, large department stores, hypermarkets, corporate supermarkets, franchise stores, entertainment establishments, wedding halls, etc. are restricted from using it. Additionally, franchise registration is possible only for small business stores with annual sales of less than KRW 1 billion.
