Global Blue, the Switzerland-based company that provides shopping solutions, has launched a membership benefit called the Global Blue Card for Chinese consumers. The card helps travellers and shoppers save up to 19 percent on purchases made abroad.

More and more Chinese people are traveling and shopping abroad. China's global shoppers claimed over 3 billion euros ($3.98 billion) in tax refunds in 2012, more than any other country in the world. The new card aims to ensure the most efficient tax refund services, said Arjen Kruger, the company's executive vice-president.
