Public · civic local-life digitisation
Public programmes that digitise local life for merchants and operators
For city operators, BIDs, chambers, and public–private programmes that want neighbourhood merchants to own their guests: voucher or campaign redemption can land as this-shop membership, with checkable records operators are entitled to see. No Chinese policy statistics on this English page—framing is civic local-life digitisation for merchants and programme operators.

FAQ
Before connecting
Who contracts—city operator or merchants?
Either model can apply; org and data scope are confirmed at onboarding.
Will merchants lose their lists to the programme?
Other parties cannot take a shop’s member list. Operator views follow agreed permissions. See the privacy policy.
Cost for merchants?
No software monthly fee to connect. Programme outcomes still depend on design and channels.
Works outside China?
Yes—this English page is framed for civic / public local-life digitisation in markets such as Malaysia and the wider SEA corridor, without Chinese policy stats.
