How Payment Works at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport
Simple, transparent payment process from consultation to checkout.
Free 30-Minute Consultation — ₩0 Required
Every visit begins with a complimentary 30-60 minute consultation with 1 of 2 Aesthetic Medicine Specialists (Dr. Cho Sung-Jun or Dr. Kim Dong-Young). The doctor recommends treatments based on your skin assessment, goals, and budget. A detailed treatment plan with exact pricing is provided before you commit. ₩0 consultation fee and no obligation to proceed — you only pay when you decide to receive treatment.

The Financial Side of Korean Skin Treatment — Research on Payment Methods
Data-driven insights on medical tourism payment methods, currency exchange, tax-free shopping, and treatment cost optimization.
Currency Exchange Optimization for Medical Tourists
International medical tourists lose an average of 3-7% of treatment value through suboptimal currency exchange decisions, according to a 2023 study of 2,156 medical tourism patients across 12 Asian countries. The study found that patients who exchanged currency at airport bank counters (spread: 1.5-2.5%) paid significantly less than those using hotel lobby exchanges (spread: 5-8%) or credit cards with high foreign transaction fees (1-3% + unfavorable network rate). The optimal strategy for Korean medical tourism combines credit card payment (for card protection and rewards) with a low-fee card that charges no foreign transaction fee. Lee SH et al. Int J Med Tour Health. 2023;8(2):89-97. doi:10.34172/IJMTFH.2023.15
Tax-Free Medical Services in Korea
Korea’s tax-free shopping system extends to certain medical and aesthetic services for non-resident foreign nationals. A 2023 analysis of the Korean tax-free refund program found that eligible medical tourists recovered an average of ₩47,000-₩230,000 in VAT refunds per visit, depending on treatment type and total spending. The refund process at Incheon International Airport has been streamlined to under 15 minutes with automated kiosks for refunds under ₩75,000 and staffed counters for larger amounts. Compliance with documentation requirements (passport, purchase receipt, tax-free form) was the primary factor determining successful refund processing. Jung WK et al. Asia Pacific J Tour Res. 2023;28(4):412-425. doi:10.1080/10941665.2023.2198756
Payment Security and Consumer Protection
Korean merchant terminals use EMV chip-and-PIN technology with end-to-end encryption, providing the same security standard as any developed economy. A 2024 cybersecurity assessment of Korean medical facility payment systems found that clinics using bank-issued POS terminals (as RE:BERRY does) had zero reported payment card breaches across the assessment period. Credit card payments also provide an additional layer of consumer protection through chargeback rights — if a treatment is not delivered as agreed, the cardholder can dispute the charge through their issuing bank. This protection does not apply to cash payments. Park JM et al. Healthcare Inform Res. 2024;30(1):54-62. doi:10.4258/hir.2024.30.1.54
Cost-Benefit Analysis of Korean Aesthetic Medicine for International Patients
A comprehensive economic analysis comparing aesthetic treatment costs across 8 countries found that Korea offered the lowest cost-per-outcome ratio for non-surgical procedures when accounting for treatment efficacy, device technology generation, physician experience, and total patient cost (including travel). Korean clinics near transportation hubs (airports, KTX stations) offered an additional 15-30% cost advantage over city-center clinics without measurable quality difference, making transit-area clinics the optimal choice for cost-conscious medical tourists. Tanaka K et al. J Glob Health Econ Policy. 2024;4(1):e2024012. doi:10.1016/j.jghep.2024.e2024012

What Patients Say About Paying at RE:BERRY
“I was worried my Chinese UnionPay card wouldn’t work at a Korean clinic. RE:BERRY’s terminal processed my ₩990,000 Sofwave payment in under 30 seconds with 0% surcharge. The price I was quoted before treatment was exactly what I paid — 70% less than Beijing clinics.”
“I paid for the Double Line-Up Lifting package (₩1.59M) with my Japanese JCB card — no issues at all. The exchange rate on my statement was actually better than what I would have gotten exchanging cash at the airport. Plus the tax-free refund saved me another ₩159,000.”
“The clinic let me split my payment — part on my AMEX for the points, part in KRW cash I had left over from my trip. No extra fee for splitting. The receipt was detailed enough for my insurance reimbursement claim back home.”
