Ulsan City is launching a campaign to support local consumption by offering discounts on delivery and shipping fees for users of its public delivery app, 'Ulsan Pedal,' and its mobile shopping platform, 'Ulsan Mall.' The initiative aims to boost economic activity and aid small businesses within the city.

From June 15 to June 30, customers who make purchases of 15,000 won or more on either platform will be eligible to receive a discount coupon. 'Ulsan Pedal' users will get a 3,000 won coupon for delivery fees, while 'Ulsan Mall' users will receive a 5,000 won coupon for shipping fees. An additional benefit is available for those who pay using 'Ulsan Pay,' which offers up to an 18% reward point accumulation.

To further expand the network of participating businesses, Ulsan City is also implementing a referral program. Existing merchants who successfully refer a new merchant to the platform will receive a 5,000 won discount coupon. This coupon can be used on purchases of 15,000 won or more and is valid for two weeks after the new merchant joins.

This campaign is part of Ulsan City's broader strategy to invigorate the local economy, particularly by supporting small business owners and encouraging residents to utilize local online platforms. The city hopes these incentives will drive increased transactions and foster a more robust local market.
