Preferential interest rate for daily savings success + monthly Emart discount coupons
Participate in the pre-event on KB Star Banking from 19th to 26th
Prizes for savings subscription from May 27 to June 15
[Asia Economy Reporter Yuri Kim] Emart announced on the 18th that it will launch a savings product linked to shopping and finance in partnership with KB Kookmin Bank. This differentiated financial product offers preferential interest rates and Emart discount benefits of up to 32,000 KRW when daily savings are successful.
The 'KB Savings Coupon Book with Emart,' introduced by Emart and KB Kookmin Bank, allows flexible monthly deposits ranging from 1,000 to 300,000 KRW during the 6-month subscription period. The product offers a basic interest rate of 1.4% per annum and a maximum interest rate of 4.0% per annum including preferential rates. It features one discount coupon usable at Emart offline stores each month and a 0.5% point preferential interest rate for deposits made successfully on all business days (bank standard).
Emart discount coupons are provided up to 6 times. Upon subscription, a 7,000 KRW discount coupon (applicable on purchases over 50,000 KRW) is given immediately. If the deposit condition is met on all business days from the subscription date, one 5,000 KRW discount coupon (applicable on purchases over 70,000 KRW) will be issued on the first day of each month from July to November. Coupons are issued on July 1 for deposits made on all business days from the subscription date to the end of June, and on August 1 for deposits made on all business days from July 1 to the end of July.
The 'KB Savings Coupon Book with Emart' can be subscribed to via the KB Star Banking application from May 27 to June 15 for 20 days. Prior to this, a pre-event will be held on the KB Star Banking app from May 19 to 26 for 8 days.
All customers who participate in the roulette spin on the event page and subsequently subscribe to the savings product will receive various prizes, including an LG Styler Objet Collection (1 winner), Shinsegae Emart gift certificates worth 10,000 KRW and 50,000 KRW (100 and 10 winners respectively), and 2,000 Pointree points (all remaining participants).
The reason Emart launched this financial product with KB Kookmin Bank is to enhance customer benefits and satisfaction by providing various types of benefits such as finance and shopping at once through collaboration with different industries. By subscribing to the product, customers can enjoy up to 4% annual interest and monthly Emart discount coupons, enabling both savings and reasonable shopping simultaneously.
Meanwhile, Emart has been actively collaborating with industries such as finance, insurance, and gaming to offer differentiated benefits to customers. The 'Emart Kookmin Savings,' launched last year with KB Kookmin Bank, was a success, reaching its recruitment target of 100,000 people ahead of schedule. The 'Emart Discount Subscription Insurance,' introduced with Hanwha Life, also attracted attention as a unique insurance product. Recently, Emart launched the 'Emart Pack,' a coupon subscription service in partnership with Hyundai Card, offering Emart discount benefits worth up to 15,000 KRW per month for a monthly subscription fee of 3,900 KRW.
Choi Hoonhak, Executive Director of Marketing at Emart, said, "We are introducing a financial product that can provide Emart customers with both shopping and financial benefits." He added, "Through pioneering collaboration with different industries, we will present differentiated products and great benefits."
