WeChat official: In 2022, the material coverage rate of key shopping districts for tourists visiting South Korea increased from 30% to 75%

WeChat officials revealed that in the past year, the material coverage rate of key shopping districts for tourists visiting Korea has increased from 30% to 75%. If you go to Korea now, you will find more and more WeChat QR codes on the streets. It is understood that this is done by the local promotion service provider M Company. The company has 7 people and only does one thing: to post WeChat QR codes all over Korean stores.

The head of the company is called Robin. He has been to Shanghai before. The development and changes in Chinese society have also influenced his career choice.

M Company now has three people in Seoul and three in Jeju Island. The entire company now has only one business, focusing on WeChat payment.

However, promoting WeChat QR codes in South Korea has not been smooth sailing. Many Korean store owners are still unfamiliar with WeChat payment and think that QR codes are useless to them and that they can do business normally without them.

They will communicate with merchants repeatedly and introduce promotional activities to help attract more Chinese customers to the store.

At the same time, in order to prevent merchants who cannot understand Chinese from mistaking it for a scam advertisement, they communicated with the WeChat Pay team and added a Korean text on the QR code material stating that this is a "QR code offering discounts to Chinese tourists."
