The Taichung City Government initiated the second phase of a consumer stimulus program designed to revitalize the local economy. The scheme allows residents to exchange 100 TWD for 200 TWD in vouchers, effectively doubling purchasing power for use at designated locations including traditional markets and night markets.

Distribution began on October 30, with 350,000 vouchers made available across 107 locations. The high demand resulted in long queues, with some sites exhausting their supplies within thirty minutes of opening. To manage crowds at major sites like Jianguo Market and Fengyuan First Market, the city implemented dual-window exchange mechanisms.

The program, which remains valid until November 5, has reportedly drawn interest from the Ministry of Economic Affairs and other municipalities in Taiwan, with several other cities and counties adopting similar schemes.
