Following the resumption of the program on September 1, the city reported a rapid recovery in local spending. During September, recharge amounts reached 77.9 billion won and total payments totaled 78.9 billion won, representing increases of 20.9% and 21.4% respectively compared to March. The program initially offered a uniform 15% cashback rate in September, which contributed to a significant rise in usage and platform engagement. As the program moves into October and November, the city has shifted to a targeted approach to concentrate benefits on specific groups. While all citizens receive a base 10% cashback, additional incentives are provided to welfare recipients, users of traditional markets, and customers at youth-owned small businesses, bringing their total to 13%. Payments at ‘Good Price Stores’ can qualify for up to 15% cashback. Data indicates that 54.9% of all payments occurred in restaurants and retail stores. Additionally, the new ‘Boram Mileage’ service, which links mileage from walking and public transport use to the platform, saw over 87,000 users join within its first month. ## Timeline ### 2026-10-07: Daejeon City reports consumption recovery via Ontong Daejeon 2.0 Daejeon City's local currency, Ontong Daejeon 2.0, saw a surge in usage and consumption following its September relaunch, with payments reaching 78.9 billion won in its first month. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/daejeon-city-reports-consumption-recovery-via-ontong-daejeon-20 ### 2026-09-28: Daejeon extends Ontong Daejeon cashback program through November Daejeon Metropolitan City is extending its Ontong Daejeon cashback program through November, offering up to 15% rewards for welfare recipients, traditional market users, and Good Price Store customers. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/daejeon-extends-ontong-daejeon-cashback-program-through-november --- Cite as: Daejeon Ontong Daejeon cashback program.
