The Hong Kong government announced in February that the third round of e-vouchers will be issued in April Although Octopus, included in the three rounds, is the most familiar to Hong Kong people, its value limit storage is the most complicated Many local people without e-wallets The elders all cried out for trouble. The new non-executive chairman of Octopus Holdings, Yang Meizhen, revealed in a media interview that they plan to upgrade the system before distributing electronic consumer vouchers again in April this year, so that consumers can receive the full amount at one time.

In the last two distributions of electronic coupons, users of Alipay Hong Kong, BoC Pay, PayMe from HSBC, Tap & Go “Pat & Go” or WeChat Pay HK only need to collect money in two separate rounds on separately, except for Octopus users who have to separate three rounds, and at the same time, there is a limit to the cumulative total of “eligible use” You need to use the previous balance before you can get a new round of use coupons, which is convenient for large – scale use.
