FAQ: Using Half-Half Plus

Q1: What is “Half-Half Plus”?

Half-Half Plus (āļ„āļ™āļĨāļ°āļ„āļĢāļķāđˆāļ‡ āļžāļĨāļąāļŠ) is a Thai government co-payment program that lets eligible Thai citizens pay 50% for eligible goods while the government covers the remaining 50%, up to 200 THB per person per day. The total quota per person is 2,400 THB for tax-filing participants and 2,000 THB for non–tax-filing participants (this refers to the citizen’s status, not the merchant).

 

Q2: Can I use Half-Half Plus at Gentle Doves?

Yes. Gentle Doves Flower Shop is registered to accept Half-Half Plus. You can use it when you choose Pickup at Shop and pay in person.

 

Q3: How do I pay with Half-Half Plus?

  1. Choose Pickup at Shop as your delivery method during checkout.
  2. Select “Half-Half Plus (āļ„āļ™āļĨāļ°āļ„āļĢāļķāđˆāļ‡ āļžāļĨāļąāļŠ)” as your payment method.
  3. When you arrive at the shop, open your Paotang (G-Wallet) app.
  4. Tap the Half-Half Plus banner and scan our Tung Ngern QR code.
  5. Confirm the payment in the app and show your e-slip to our staff to receive your flowers.

Note: Your G-Wallet must have enough balance to cover the amount that exceeds the government’s 200 THB/day subsidy. If your balance is short, you can scan our QR Code Payment again at the counter to pay the remaining amount.

Example: For a 500 THB bouquet, your G-Wallet is charged 300 THB and the government contributes 200 THB (daily cap).

Q5: Who can use this payment method?

Q6: Can I use Half-Half Plus for delivery orders?

No. The scheme requires in-person payment, so it’s available only for Pickup orders.

 

Q7: What items are excluded?

Under government rules, Half-Half Plus cannot be used for alcohol, tobacco, gift cards, prepayments, fuel, utilities, or lottery. Flowers are general goods and are eligible.

 

Q8: What if the system fails or the quota runs out?

If the co-pay quota is used up or the Paotang app cannot process the payment, you can still pay the full amount using normal cash or standard QR at the shop.
