Gyeonggi Province is launching a newly improved version of the Gyeonggi Local Currency app with major feature enhancements starting from the 4th.

Gyeonggi Province will significantly improve the main functions of the Gyeonggi Local Currency app and launch the new service starting from the 4th. The core of the update is strengthening the provision of essential living information and merchant information for residents, in addition to the existing payment functions of the Gyeonggi Local Currency app.

The province expects that through this revamp, the Gyeonggi Local Currency app will develop into an innovative platform that helps revitalize the local economy.

Accordingly, the redesign focused on enhancing benefits and convenience centered on user experience. Card information, service areas, policies, and living information were arranged to improve intuitiveness and accessibility at a glance.

The home screen now briefly displays the existing user card balance area, introduces a central banner, and expands the content area to improve space utilization.

In particular, on the ‘My Wallet’ and ‘Aljja News’ screens, users can quickly and easily check policy allowance information and important news provided by Gyeonggi Province and each city and county within the province, allowing residents to not miss out on policy benefits in their daily lives. Additionally, local lifestyle partnership convenience services are introduced, and the ‘Favorite Store’ screen contributes to improving convenience for both users and merchants.

Kim Gwang-deok, Director of the Regional Finance Division of Gyeonggi Province, said, “The revamp of the Gyeonggi Local Currency app was promoted with the intention that equal opportunities and information should be provided to all residents, while guaranteeing more benefits and convenience.” He added, “Through the opening of the Gyeonggi Local Currency platform, we expect to offer more opportunities and convenience to residents and small business owners.”

Meanwhile, the Gyeonggi Local Currency platform (app) maintains an average of about 22 million accesses per month, and as of September, the number of registered users reaches 8.55 million. This means 61% of the total residents (14.1 million) use it. Last year, the issuance amount of Gyeonggi Local Currency was about 4.8 trillion KRW, and the payment amount reached about 4.2 trillion KRW.
