The platform earmarked HK$1 million for the food vouchers to 15 local charities, which can be applied to all restaurants on their app delivery or pick-up.
The HK$2 million investment, meanwhile, is allotted for the waived monthly listing fee for restaurant partners, a dedicated express registration link for F&B staff to apply to join as couriers, free distribution of 7,000 rapid COVID-19 rapid antigen test kits for their delivery fleet, an extension of their fleet’s COVID-19 insurance plan amongst others.
