Payment Methods

How to Receive Childcare Service Fees

You can visit the childcare center and make a monthly payment in person. Other payment methods include automatic payment systems, Internet payment, ARS payment and mobile phone payment.

How to Certify Kindergarten Fees

Kindergarten fees are provided separately from childcare service fees. For kindergarten fees, the amount covered by the government subsidy is processed through certification, while the parental copayment is processed through a regular payment.

Q&A

Can I pay childcare service fees and certify kindergarten fees using a previously issued I-Happiness Card?
Yes. I-Happiness Cards currently in use can also be used to pay childcare service fees and kindergarten fees until they expire.
Certification is also possible.
Can I use an I-Happiness Card to receive health insurance support for medical expenses related to pregnancy and childbirth and social service e-vouchers?
No. A single card is sufficient to certify kindergarten fees and pay for daycare services.
My eldest child is in kindergarten and I have two younger children who attend a daycare center. If I have three children, do I need to get three cards?
No. Only childcare service fees and certified kindergarten fees are covered by the I-Happiness Card.
Is it possible to receive support for childcare service fees at a daycare center and certify kindergarten fees immediately after receiving the National Happiness Card from a credit card company?
No. You have to visit an Eup, Myeon, or Dong community center or visit the Bokjiro website (www.bokjiro.go.kr) to apply for childcare service fees or kindergarten fees.
If my child moves from kindergarten to childcare center, do I have to submit a separate application for childcare service fees?
If your child moves from a childcare center to kindergarten or kindergarten to a childcare center, you must apply to change your eligible status from childcare service fees ↔ kindergarten fees, or else you will not be able to receive the government subsidy.
