Macao launches citywide consumption promotion program
MACAO -- The Macao Special Administrative Region (SAR) government and the Macao Chamber of Commerce on Monday jointly launched a "community consumption rewards" campaign.
The program, running from Sept 1 to Nov 30, coincides with the upcoming National Games and will distribute nearly 500 million patacas (about $62.2 million) in consumption incentives to support community businesses, the Economic and Technological Development Bureau of the Macao SAR government said in a press release.
According to the bureau, residents can obtain electronic coupons via e-wallet transactions at designated merchants. Each real-name e-wallet account can redeem coupons after making the first eligible purchase of at least 50 patacas from Monday to Friday, with coupons valid during the following weekend.
