It seems that in issuing consumer vouchers, there are good practices in various places. Have you been "smashed" by a voucher?

Spending vouchers, who can get

It is rare to encounter the good thing of dropping a "red envelope" in the sky, so how do you get this wave of benefits?

At present, most of the consumer vouchers issued in various places are mainly in electronic form, which need to be applied for and used through mobile apps. Consumer coupons are applied in different ways in different regions, and consumers can pay more attention to news released by local authorities.

Taking Nanjing as an example, applying for a consumer voucher requires a lottery number, but no one is limited to household registration. Residents of Nanjing register on the "My Nanjing" APP to participate in the consumption voucher. After receiving the voucher successfully, it can be used for offline payment to deduct a certain amount of consumption.

Jinan cultural Huimin consumer electronic coupons are mainly divided into 20, 50, 80, 100, 150, 200 yuan and other denominations. Consumers can use WeChat search mini program "ticket ticket" online platform to receive cancellation coupons, which can be redeemed during consumption. Deduct the corresponding amount.

Can consumer coupons really drive consumption?

A lot of internet-friendly and strange, can vouchers really drive consumption?

Zhao Ping, director of the International Trade Research Department of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, believes that consumer vouchers are used to stimulate consumption and release consumer demand through subsidies. From past experience, consumption subsidy policies will generally drive consumption growth in the short term, and even record a new high in consumption.

Zhao Ping also pointed out that in the areas supported by consumer coupons, there will be a rapid increase in consumption in the short term, so that the demand for consumption that has been suppressed due to the epidemic will be released as soon as possible, and consumption will resume its accelerated growth.

On March 23, Nanjing completed the last round of the 50 million yuan electronic consumer coupon. It is understood that a total of 670,000 consumer coupons were shaken in the three rounds, driving consumption of nearly 10 million yuan. The effect is awesome!

Will the consumption voucher cause prices to rise?

Consumption vouchers are good, but some netizens are worried, will they cause prices to rise?

Actually, this-yes-much-worry-now!

First of all, the issue of consumer coupons is not achieved through additional currency issuance, but through financial means. In other words, money hasn't increased, and of course it can't talk about causing inflation and rising prices.

Secondly, the current issue is not for inclusive consumption vouchers, but for service industries such as catering, cultural tourism, etc., which have been affected by the epidemic, in order to promote these industries to return to normal levels as soon as possible, rather than excessively stimulate consumption.

At the same time, the issuance of consumer vouchers is currently concentrated in relatively developed regions such as Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and Shandong, where the fiscal capacity is affordable.

Many experts have also proposed the rational use of consumer vouchers, and do not recommend or encourage long-term consumer coupon subsidies. In other words, issuing consumer vouchers is only an expedient measure and cannot become a long-term behavior, so there is no need to worry about negative effects.
