It is recommended to set a more relaxed deadline

The Hong Kong Institute of Business Studies of Lingnan University recommends that electronic consumer vouchers can be used for a more relaxed period (such as valid until the Chinese New Year next year or set to one year), and can be used in a wider range of consumer categories and places, including payment of medical expenses and the elderly Hospital expenses.

The government may also consider allowing citizens to donate consumer vouchers to charities, and charities may also make matching donations.

For retailers, many interviewees are concerned that merchants will have additional terms when using electronic consumer vouchers, such as not accepting consumer vouchers for special offers, or raising the price of products first when they distribute consumer vouchers this summer.

The research suggests that retailers should not impose additional clauses on the use of electronic consumer vouchers or raise prices accordingly. They can also provide more concessions to merchants and customers, such as waiving small and medium-sized merchants’ installation fees and longer offers when electronic consumer vouchers are launched The reduction and exemption of time transaction fees has promoted the popularization of electronic payment and the development of digital economy in Hong Kong.
