The government announced earlier that the second round of consumer vouchers will be distributed, and each person can receive 10,000 yuan. The general guidelines are similar to the previous round. The editor will help you search for existing information, integrate a bunch of common Q&As, and answer your questions about the second round of consumer coupons.
Q1: When will the two phases of $5000 coupons be distributed?
A: The first installment is tentatively scheduled to be issued on April 7. There is no definite date for the second installment, which is yet to be announced by the government. However, the Octopus is the same as last time, you will receive $4000 first, as long as you spend enough $4000 before the limited date, you will receive the remaining $1000 first, the detailed timetable is as follows:
| Eligible spending of up to 4,000 yuan | The remaining 1,000 yuan will be distributed |
| On or before May 31, 2022 | June 16, 2022 |
| On or before June 30, 2022 | July 16, 2022 |
| On or before July 31, 2022 | August 16, 2022 |
| On or before August 31, 2022 | September 16, 2022 |
| On or before September 30, 2022 | October 16, 2022 |
| On or before October 31, 2022 | November 16, 2022 |
Q2: What is the pie order this time? Do you want to drive and then register? Didn't count last time?
Answer: Eligible citizens who have successfully registered for the 2021 Consumer Voucher Program can automatically receive relevant consumer vouchers in April through the same stored value facility account (Alipay Hong Kong, WeChat Pay HK, Tap&Go, Octopus).
If there are no eligible citizens who have registered for the 2021 consumer voucher program, they can register when the new round of consumer voucher program (phase two) is launched. Details will be announced later.
Q3: Last time I used Tap&Go to carry it, is it worth changing to Octopus this time?
A: According to the government's provisional statement, the first phase (the first 5,000 yuan of coupons) cannot be changed. Members of the public must use stored value payment facilities registered for the 2021 Voucher Scheme to receive vouchers. If the relevant account has been invalidated, canceled or lost, citizens can only use another account of the same stored value facility to receive the relevant coupons.
When the second phase of registration is accepted, the stored value payment facility can be changed. Authorities will announce details later.
Q4: Do Octopus need to use the previous round of consumption coupons to get the new round?
Answer: No need! Whether the citizens have tapped their cards to receive all the vouchers issued by the 2021 voucher program will not affect the government's arrangement to issue 4,000 yuan vouchers to them in April under the new round of voucher program (phase one).
Q5: How long is the first period of $5000 coupon valid?
A: Citizens who receive coupons with Alipay Hong Kong, Tap & Go or WeChat Pay HK will receive a coupon worth RMB 5,000. The coupons are valid until October 31 this year, and friends who are tight on Octopus have to follow the above schedule to plan when to spend $4000, and then pay the remaining $1000.
