Torder Launches Economic Recovery Spending Coupon Payments

## T-Order, Fully Supports 'People's Livelihood Recovery Consumer Coupons'…Resolves Confusion with On-site Payment System Amid recent confusion surrounding the use of 'People's Livelihood Recovery Consumer Coupons,' T-Order, a company specializing in table ordering systems, announced on the 21st that it guarantees the smooth use of these coupons at its installed stores. This clearly resolves the confusion consumers experienced due to reports that some kiosks and table ordering systems might have restrictions on coupon usage. T-Order's system is based on its unique 'on-site real-time payment system.' After a customer orders a menu item via a tablet in the store, payment is processed instantly through an in-store card terminal or a linked settlement system, either as a pre-payment or post-payment. Specifically, unlike some table ordering systems that process pre-payments through online payment gateway (PG) companies, T-Order completes payments directly on-site, thus explaining that there is no possibility of conflict with the government's consumer coupon policy. Accordingly, 'People's Livelihood Recovery Consumer Coupons' issued in the form of credit or debit cards can be used at T-Order installed stores through both pre-payment and post-payment methods. This means consumers can safely use their coupons at any store where T-Order is installed. However, it should be noted that consumer coupons charged with Naver Pay, Kakao Pay points, or local currency points may have restricted usage on T-Order's pre-payment terminals. This is due to technical differences in payment systems and the characteristic of T-Order, which is based on on-site card payments. T-Order has also taken swift action to minimize confusion for consumers and stores. It is producing and distributing 'People's Livelihood Recovery Consumer Coupon Usable Store' guidance banner images, supporting store owners in attaching them to provide accurate information to customers. A T-Order official emphasized, "Our system is based on in-store on-site payments, making it perfectly aligned with the government's consumer coupon support policy. We will continue to do our best to provide an optimal payment environment that both store owners and customers can use with peace of mind and convenience." T-Order is expected to contribute to expanding the usability of People's Livelihood Recovery Consumer Coupons through its on-site centric payment system, thereby having a positive impact on both consumers and small business owners.
