The government announced the details of consumer vouchers today (18th). They can be registered for collection on July 4 and can be used as soon as August 1.

According to an earlier survey, the top ten online shopping platforms most commonly used by Hong Kong people, such as HKTVmall, You and YOHO, can only accept consumer vouchers from some electronic payment platforms. The survey indicated that the Octopus, which is used by the most people, is used for consumption due to technical limitations. Coupons are difficult to buy online.

However, the palm shop Boutir, which provides platform services for 130,000 online stores, announced today (18th) that it will hold an online market (online shopping platform) after the issuance of consumer vouchers to support payment methods of 4 electronic operators. Octopus can be used with mobile phones. The consumption of NFC function breaks through online shopping restrictions.

If you choose Octopus to receive consumption coupons, the Octopus wallet function will be blocked until you run out of coupons. In other words, you cannot use the Octopus wallet to make online purchases.

However, the online shopping technology platform "Palm Shop Boutir" stated that it will use the NFC function of the mobile phone to read the amount of Octopus coupons, breaking the limit of not being able to shop online.

Palm shop Boutir said today that after Palm Shop launched an online book fair last year and this year's online Poon Choi Festival, it will also host an online market after the coupons are officially effective.

The palm shop Boutir will invite its cooperative merchants without any listing fee or any revenue sharing, so that the online shop will allow citizens to purchase its products with consumer vouchers without any additional costs. Details will be announced later.

It is worth noting that many popular online shopping platforms in Hong Kong, including HKTVmall, ZALORA, THE CLUB, Built-In-Pro, etc., only accept credit card payments.

However, the 130,000 online shops cooperating with the palm shop Boutir all support the payment methods of 4 electronic operators, including the Octopus, which is commonly used by the public.

Therefore, the launch of the online market means that the online shopping platform has become the first online shopping platform in Hong Kong that supports Octopus, AlipayHK, WeChat Pay HK, and Tap & Go at the same time. By then, the public will not have to worry about the difficulty of using consumer vouchers in the online market.

According to the information provided by Boutir, the online marketplace is like Taobao, HKTVmall, etc. The public can choose their favorite products from the categories and pay in their mobile phones.

Wu Jiajia, founder of Palm Shop, said that recently many small and medium-sized enterprises have inquired about the details of receiving consumer coupons, so they discussed cooperation plans with consumer coupon operators, and finally succeeded in enabling Palm Shop to fully support the above four payment tools, helping merchants seize business opportunities.
