Activity Rules:
-
1. The amount shown on the receipt is the original transaction amount. The actual payment amount is based on the issuing bank’s deduction. The exchange rate displayed by the store is not the UnionPay rate; whether the discount applies is determined by UnionPay's transaction amount and exchange rate.
-
2. Steps to check the discount:
2.1) Add your UnionPay card to the Cloud QuickPass (雲閃付) App in advance.
2.2) Use the designated payment method to participate.
2.3) In the Cloud QuickPass App, go to “Card Management” → select the card used → “Transaction History” to view the discount amount.-
- The discount information may not appear immediately after payment; please refresh after five minutes to confirm.
-
- This inquiry feature is not applicable for UnionPay cards issued outside mainland China.
-
-
3. If you have questions regarding the discount after payment, please call UnionPay customer service for assistance.
4. The instant discount does not apply to specific brands; please refer to in-store notices for details.
-
5. This promotion only applies to transactions processed through UnionPay’s clearing network. Transactions through UnionPay Online Payment, local switching, intra-bank transactions, or third-party payment platforms are not eligible. Whether a dual-currency card transaction is processed via UnionPay must be confirmed.
-
6. Some newly added stores or specific locations may not participate due to special circumstances (e.g., unmanned vending machines or stores within large shopping malls may not support or qualify for the discount. If a merchant belongs to two categories, the system automatically applies the discount based on the merchant code’s assigned category, which cannot be manually selected). If a transaction is completed without receiving the discount, you are advised to cancel the transaction, contact UnionPay customer service, and retry the purchase.

7. This promotion cannot be combined with other UnionPay discount campaigns (except exchange rate discounts).
