1

Check offers before you pay

Active cashback and scratch card promos are listed right before checkout.

2

Read the fine print once

Minimum amount, category limits and validity windows decide if an offer counts.

3

Route routine payments through it

Recharges, utilities and everyday spends are where cashback shows up most.

4

Glance at your reward history

Spot which categories reward you consistently and lean into those.

๐Ÿ’ก
Real talk:

Cashback is a bonus on money you were spending anyway โ€” not a reason to spend more. Treat every rupee back as a nice surprise, not a plan.

quick answers

FAQ

Does cashback expire?

Cashback credited as wallet balance or vouchers usually carries a validity window โ€” worth checking the offer terms and using it before it lapses.

Why no scratch card on this payment?

Scratch cards are tied to specific promo campaigns and eligible transaction types, so they won't show up on every single payment.

Is the cashback amount guaranteed?

No โ€” most rewards are probabilistic or promotional, so the amount (or whether you win at all) can vary each time.
