Which backlog “closes”
Today, therefore, the backlog with those who chose to pay off the market pass through a bank account is “closed”, as the payments are made gradually and are completed, as there is no other payment for this specific category of beneficiaries. They received the money in two installments.
Those who chose to issue an immaterial digital card will also be paid the installment for the month of May today, but they still have two payments left (note: in this case the payments are monthly) which will be made as follows
- on June 3 for the month of June, and
- on July 3 for the month of July.
Where can the immaterial card be used?
The stores, where consumers can redeem the market pass money, belong to the following categories:
Groceries, Supermarkets, Butchers, Patisserie Shops, Dairy Shops, Bakeries, as well as various food shops.
Any transfer to a third party or withdrawal of the amount credited to the debit card is not possible.
The use of the digital debit card is carried out through a device that supports contactless transaction technology (Web/Virtual POS).
The digital debit card remains activated until 31.08.2023, after which the credit institution or financial institution must immediately deactivate it, while any unused balance is lost.
How much money will those waiting for Market Pass get in account
Of course – as mentioned above – for those who do not have mobile phones that support NFC technology, there was the way out of collecting the amount of the market pass to a bank account of each household’s choice.
In this case, however, the… household had to come to terms with the idea that it would receive “scissored” support, i.e., that it would range from 17.6 euros and reach up to 80 euros per month, as well as that the amount will not be paid at the beginning of the month – as is the case with the “digital card” – but quarterly. This is how the last payment is happening now for those who chose a bank account with “collected” a full 3 months in their accounts.
Beneficiaries are households where their annual total family income is up to 16,000 euros for single-member households and 24,000 euros for married couples or parties to a cohabitation agreement, which is increased by 5,000 euros for each child, other dependent member and Alex Reed member of the household, according to the E1 form of the tax return.
Therefore, if the person liable to submit a tax return is married with two dependent children and also has a third, older child who is not considered a dependent but hosts him, then the members of the household are considered as five and both the income limits and the amount of the aid expand accordingly.

**Interview with John Smith, Financial Analyst, on the Recent Market Pass Payments**
**Editor:** Good afternoon, John! Thanks for joining us today to discuss the recent updates on the Market Pass payments.
**John Smith:** Thank you for having me!
**Editor:** Let’s get right into it. Today marks the second payment of the Market Pass program for those who opted for bank transfers. Can you explain what this means for the beneficiaries?
**John Smith:** Absolutely. Today, beneficiaries who chose to receive their payments directly into their bank accounts are receiving their second and final installment. This wraps up the financial support for this specific group, meaning they’ve received their funds in two payments.
**Editor:** That’s important to note. Now, for those who selected the immaterial digital card option, what can they expect?
**John Smith:** Those recipients will also see their May installment arrive today, but they still have two more payments scheduled—for June and July. This allows them to use the funds on a monthly basis, which is particularly beneficial for budgeting.
**Editor:** Speaking of budgeting, what categories of stores can beneficiaries use their Market Pass funds in?
**John Smith:** The Market Pass funds can be used in various settings such as grocery stores, supermarkets, butchers, patisserie shops, dairy shops, bakeries, and other food-related retailers. It’s specifically designed to help with everyday food expenses.
**Editor:** That’s quite convenient! I also heard that there’s a limitation on how the funds can be accessed. Can you clarify that?
**John Smith:** Yes, that’s correct. Beneficiaries cannot transfer these funds to a third party or withdraw cash from the digital debit card. The money must be used at the specified retailers, which is aimed at ensuring that the funds support essential food purchases.
**Editor:** It’s interesting that there’s such a structured approach to this program. Looking ahead, can you tell us what happens if beneficiaries don’t cash in their funds by the end of summer?
**John Smith:** Of course. It’s crucial for them to use those funds before the summer concludes, or the remaining amounts will be forfeited. This is something beneficiaries should keep in mind to avoid losing any financial support they’ve received.
**Editor:** Thank you, John, for sharing these insights on the Market Pass program. It’s vital for beneficiaries to stay informed about these updates.
**John Smith:** My pleasure! It’s been great discussing this important topic with you.
Tore categories, including groceries, supermarkets, butchers, patisserie shops, dairy shops, and bakeries, among others. This variety ensures that beneficiaries can cover essential food expenses while using the funds effectively.
**Editor:** That’s great to hear! Can you explain any limitations regarding the use of the immaterial digital card?
**John Smith:** Certainly. Beneficiaries should be aware that the digital debit card is specifically designed for use in these designated stores and cannot be transferred to third parties or withdrawn as cash. It operates via contactless transaction technology until it expires on August 31, 2023. After that date, any remaining balance will be forfeited, so it’s crucial for users to cash out before the deadline.
**Editor:** Thank you for clarifying. Now, regarding the financial eligibility for this program, who qualifies for the Market Pass, and how much support can they get?
**John Smith:** Eligibility is based on annual income, with single households earning up to €16,000 and couples up to €24,000 being able to apply. Additionally, for every child or dependent, the income limit increases by €5,000. Monthly support amounts vary among households, ranging from €17.6 to €80, depending on their specific circumstances and the payment method selected.
**Editor:** That’s very insightful, John. Is there anything else beneficiaries should be mindful of regarding their payments?
**John Smith:** Yes, it’s essential for beneficiaries to remember the terms of the program, especially those opting to receive their funds via bank transfers, as these payments are made quarterly rather than monthly. They should stay informed about their payment schedules and ensure they utilize their funds effectively before any expiration.
**Editor:** Thank you so much, John, for sharing these insights on the Market Pass payments. Your expertise is invaluable for understanding how this program impacts beneficiaries.
**John Smith:** Thank you for having me! It’s vital to keep the public informed about these financial resources.
