The app, a prize winner at a contest to seek initiatives to reduce plastic waste in Hue in 2023, connects scrap sellers and collectors. The sellers sort their waste and book a waste collector via the app for collecting the waste at home. They can also take the waste to designated collection sites. Based on the amount of waste, they will earn points which can be used to exchange or buy products/services on the app.

Director of MAGreen Social Services Joint Stock Company Tran Thi Thoa said that the company has worked with over 100 local stores and supermarkets so that app users can use their points in shopping.

The app is easy to install, simple to use, and is expected to be widely accepted, contributing to the city's strategy of building a green and smart urban area, she said.
