Duty-free points, shopping credits among event offerings
Shinsegae Duty-Free has launched its summer campaign, "Escape into Summer," offering a range of shopping benefits through Aug. 27 to coincide with the peak vacation season.
The campaign features discounts of up to 65%, a Guam family travel package, duty-free points and shopping credits, among other promotions.
At its online mall, Myeong-dong store and Incheon Airport Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 locations, the retailer is offering up to 55% off on cosmetics and fragrances — including MAC, Clinique and Versace — as well as fashion brands such as AMI and FitFlop, and travel electronics including GoPro.
The online mall is offering steeper discounts of up to 65% during the same period, covering beauty brands such as Sulwhasoo, Tom Ford Beauty and Medicube, alongside fashion, jewelry and health food brands including Prada, Golden Dew and Jung Kwan Jang.
At the Myeong-dong store, domestic customers can receive shopping credits worth up to 45,000 won ($29), while foreign individual tourists will receive a beauty lucky package and a K-ROAD PASS coupon book based on their purchase amount.
At Incheon Airport, departing passengers near Gate 11 and Gate 117 at Terminal 1, and Gates 247 through 250 at Terminal 2, can receive shopping credits worth up to 3,000 won.
Partner promotions spanning travel, aviation and telecommunications are also part of the campaign. From July 1 through Aug. 31, domestic and foreign individual tourists who complete Cathay Pacific membership verification and mileage enrollment will earn 3 Asia Miles per 1,000 won spent, up to a maximum of 3,000 Asia Miles, upon completing their purchase and product pickup.
A tie-up with Davich Optical, a leading domestic eyewear franchise, gives Shinsegae Duty-Free members a 10% discount on sunglasses, eyeglasses and lenses at Davich stores, along with free after-sales service. Davich members, in turn, receive duty-free shopping credits and other benefits at Shinsegae Duty-Free.
Customers enrolled in SK Telecom's T Roaming "Family Roaming" plan — both the primary account holder and family members — will receive 5,000 won in shopping credits usable at the Myeong-dong store and Incheon Airport Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 locations from July 1 through Aug. 31.
Through July 31, customers who pay 100,000 won or more with a Hyundai Card registered on Toss Pay will receive an instant 10,000 won discount. The Korean-, English- and Chinese-language online malls will also issue a 10% discount coupon — usable on purchases of $10 or more — to customers who register their departure information.
Customers who make a purchase of $1 or more at any online or offline store during the campaign period and enter the event page on the Korean-language online mall will be entered into a draw for a Modetour four-person family package tour to Guam. A duty-free points roulette event will also award between 100 and 50,000 points per spin.
"We designed this campaign so that customers preparing for their summer vacations can enjoy a more affordable and enjoyable duty-free shopping experience," a Shinsegae Duty-Free official said.
