BC Card is introducing a public transport-focused card that aligns with the government's carbon neutrality policy and K-Pass initiative.
On September 21, BC Card announced the launch of the 'Everyone's Green Card,' developed in collaboration with the Ministry of Climate, Energy, and Environment and the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport, to enhance benefits for eco-friendly consumption and public transport use.
The Green Card, which BC Card first launched in 2011 with the Ministry of Climate, rewards users for engaging in green consumption practices, such as purchasing eco-friendly products or using public transport, by offering eco-money points and discounts.
The Everyone's Green Card is characterized by its integration with the government's Korean Green Transition (K-GX) policy and the K-Pass, enhancing public transport benefits. It can be issued through iM Bank, Gyeongnam Bank, Shinhyup Bank, Gwangju Bank, Jeju Bank, and BC Baro Card.
Depending on monthly spending levels of 300,000, 600,000, or 900,000 won, users can earn up to 20% of their public transport expenses back in eco-money points. Additionally, when using eco-friendly transportation services like KTX, users can also earn up to 20%, with a maximum of 4,000 points per month.
The card also includes benefits in daily life. Users can earn up to 4,000 points when making purchases at six coffee brands, including Starbucks, between 8 a.m. and 10 a.m., or at food establishments between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.
Kim Young-woo, CEO of BC Card, stated, "We will continue to expand services to promote eco-friendly consumption culture and realize ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) values."
