Consumer vouchers|News: Octopus may be distributed in 3 phases due to technical problems and public transportation

[13:15] The new crown pneumonia epidemic in Hong Kong has been raging for more than a year. In order to stimulate the local economy, the government announced the distribution of electronic consumer vouchers at the beginning of this year.

As the distribution day approaches, the preparations are now in the final stage.

It is reported that due to the limitations of Octopus technology, consumer coupons cannot be selectively deducted. I believe there is a high chance that they can be used in transportation.



The news also pointed out that earlier it was pointed out that consumer coupons were distributed in two installments, namely 2,500 yuan per installment. By then, the public will exceed the Octopus’s stored value limit of 3,000 yuan after receiving the traffic discount. Therefore, it is estimated that the Octopus distribution method will be different. The three electronic operators are different, or the distribution may be changed to three phases.

[11:30] The government announced earlier that a total of 4 e-payment operators have been selected to be responsible for the distribution, including Alipay HK, Octopus, Tap & Go and WeChat Pay Hong Kong.

At that time, the news stated that consumer coupons would be issued in five phases, that is, 1,000 yuan will be distributed for five consecutive months. However, the government later retracted its statement that the exact number of periods will be announced later.

If citizens have used the online registration to distribute cash last year, they can reduce the steps of filling in personal information and only need to select an electronic payment operator to receive consumer coupons. Cannot be replaced after confirmation.

Electronic payment operators will use their own methods, such as SMS one-time passwords, account registration, etc., to confirm the identity of citizens.
