Last Consumer Vouchers Set

The Government reminded people who collected the first consumption voucher via Octopus on August 1 that if their cumulative total eligible spending reaches $4,000 by November 30, they can receive the last $1,000 voucher on December 16.

 

According to the disbursement arrangement, for people collecting the vouchers via Octopus, the last $1,000 voucher will be disbursed on the following month's 16th day after the target spending of $4,000 has been achieved within a specified period from the first voucher's disbursement.

 

The specified period refers to the fourth to seventh month after the first voucher has been disbursed.

 

Taking the people who collected the first voucher on August 1 as an example, they should have their eligible spending reaching $4,000 by February 28 next year at the latest in order to receive the last voucher on March 16, 2022.

 

Meanwhile, people who collected the first consumption voucher on October 1 will be disbursed with the second voucher on December 1.

 

For those who chose to collect the vouchers via AlipayHK, Tap & Go or WeChat Pay HK, the value of the second voucher is $3,000. The value of the second voucher is $2,000 for those who chose to collect the vouchers via Octopus.
