Category II stored value account operations refer to multi-purpose prepaid card business. Multi-purpose prepaid cards are issued by specialized card-issuing institutions (non-bank payment institutions) and are characterized by their cross-regional and cross-industry usability. In specific consumption scenarios such as supermarket retail, catering services, industrial parks, and public transportation, multi-purpose prepaid cards serve as a beneficial supplement to general non-cash payment methods such as bank cards and mobile payments. The revised "Measures" stipulate provisions regarding the transparency of rules, fund security, information protection, and liability constraints for multi-purpose prepaid cards. The deadline for feedback is August 8, 2026.

Starbucks Corp (NASDAQ:SBUX) stated on Wednesday that its U.S. support center employees are now required to be in the office at least three days per week, up from one day per week previously.


Due to the epidemic, the coffee chain has joined the ranks of other U.S. companies that are restricting work-from-home and hybrid work arrangements.


Starting on January 30, Starbucks employees within commuting distance would be required to report to work on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and a third day of the week mutually chosen by the immediate leader and team. The corporation informed employees that they were free to work remotely for the remaining two days.


80% of the time towards the end of February, Snap Inc (NYSE:SNAP) employees will be in the office. Elon Musk notified Twitter employees that remote work would no longer be authorized, and Uber (NYSE:UBER) has mandated that employees work in the office twice each week.


Starbucks announced that the three-day-per-week attendance requirement was essential for all support personnel after some failed to meet the prior "minimum guarantee" of one day per week.


Regional support partners within commuting distance of a regional office are subject to the new policy. According to the world's largest coffee chain, all regional partners would be in the office on the third day of the week.
