eGift souvenir online collection

        The peak season for shareholder meetings is from April to June every year, and many companies are eagerly anticipating the distribution of shareholder meeting souvenirs. However, with the advancement of technology, the way of receiving souvenirs has also been digitally upgraded. Shareholders can obtain souvenir information online by completing electronic voting through the eGift mechanism, without the need for commuting or long queues.

        The invisible burden of time cost from queuing to receiving

        

        In the past, shareholders could choose to attend the shareholders' meeting in person, entrust others to collect on their behalf, or obtain qualifications through electronic voting and then collect souvenirs according to regulations. However, in practice, it is often necessary to coordinate with specific dates and time periods, and with limited quantities of souvenirs, it is always difficult to execute; If someone is asked to collect on behalf of the recipient, a handling fee must be paid, and identity information must be provided to the other party, which inevitably raises concerns about data leakage. In addition, for office workers or shareholders in other counties and cities, time and transportation costs are a major burden.

        EGift: Making the Process Simple Again

        In order to improve service quality and strengthen digital participation mechanisms, the Taiwan Central Depository and Clearing House's "eGift" service for shareholder meeting souvenirs will be launched in March 2026. This service continues the existing electronic voting system and integrates the souvenir collection process into an online platform. Shareholders can directly obtain digital souvenir information after completing electronic voting on the platform. The overall process verifies identity through digital means, which not only enhances security but also eliminates time and geographical limitations, saving queuing time and making operations more efficient.

        Five steps to easily complete the collection process

        Shareholders can log in to the shareholder e-service platform through personal computers, the Jibao e-Palm App, or the securities firm ordering App, and complete the following tasks in sequence:

        Use natural person credentials or mobile digital signatures to verify identity.

        First time login, please complete email verification and registration.

        After the system automatically compares the shareholding information, it is determined whether they meet the eligibility criteria for receiving and the available date for receiving.

        Complete electronic voting within the specified period (without delivering the power of attorney).

        Starting from the date of announcement for collection, obtain souvenir digital voucher information on the "Company eGift Zone" of the platform, including company name, shareholder meeting date, souvenir content, and verification code. (Prerequisite for receiving eGift: The issuing company should sign a contract with the collective insurance company and apply to use eGift)

        The overall process is clear and transparent, providing shareholders with real-time access to qualifications and collection status, and improving information gaps.

        A friendly experience of shareholder service

        With the increasing popularity of digital tools, shareholder services can also be more friendly. Through eGift service, shareholders can complete voting and receive souvenirs in one go, without having to worry about time, location, or queuing. This year's shareholder meeting season, why not personally experience electronic voting and eGift services, with less hustle and more composure, making technology a good helper for us to participate in corporate governance.
