The government’s preparation for the distribution of 5,000 yuan in electronic consumer vouchers has entered the "last straight road", and four stored-value payment tool vendors have a share.
Octopus said earlier that the system can distinguish whether the amount paid by users is within the scope of use of consumer vouchers, and the consumer vouchers stored in the Octopus can be used for retail customers and transportation.
When the Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau responded to the "Hong Kong 01" inquiry, it stated that the preparations for the consumer voucher program have entered the final stage, and the details of the plan are expected to be announced later this month.

Octopus Sales and Marketing Director Li Yuer stated in a radio program yesterday that after a unified registration on the government website, if citizens choose to collect payments with Octopus, they only need to register their Octopus number and are not limited to using personal Octopus cards.
She pointed out that users can spend the normal amount of money, which can be used in transportation.
Li Yuer said that after registering an Octopus card in the Octopus App, citizens can inquire about the usage record of consumption coupons.
If you choose not to install the App, you can also call the hotline for inquiries.
She also reiterated that any Octopus card can be registered with the card number for consumer coupons, including bearer Octopus and personal Octopus.
