Agoda cashback rewards

Hi, has anyone used Agoda’s cashback rewards offer?

While booking, the site said that I will pay the full amount to the hotel and cashback will be credited to my card post stay.

But the booking confirmation has no mention of the cashback. Asking because other sites would be cheaper if there’s no cashback.

Haven’t seen it mentioned here.

Lots of posts about Agoda, though . Most are pretty bad.

I googled Agoda cashback rewards and found this article that explains how it works. It says Agoda Cash will appear on your account 7 days after check out. It is a credit for use on future bookings, not a rebate for the booking you already paid for. Have you looked at your Agoda account to see if the credit appears? https://trvlguides.com/articles/how-does-agoda-cash-work

This is the offer description I see on the app.

“ Your Cashback Rewards will be made eligible 60 days after check out date, and you have up to 120 days to request them. An email will be sent to you to fill in which credit/debit card you would like to receive the rewards with”

I’m just wondering why Agoda would give cashback to card when I’ll be paying the property in cash during check in.

I would just book the cheaper rate as I do not want a credit that I do not know if I can use or even if it would be valid on all reservations.

I use Agoda for ordinary hotel bookings and have never had any issues.

I do not go for those Cashback things. I want good prices now, not inflated prices and the hope I’m getting something back in the future to use on future bookings and a possibility there are limits or restrictions on when and which hotels I can use it for.

I'm confused on this one. What I've seen online from Agoda and what tim and Avanti describe is not a cash back scheme, but a scheme that gives credit on future reservations. What Gokul describes in post 3 is a cash back scheme. Could that be a program offered by Gokul's credit card? An agreement between the credit card company and Agoda which is different than Agoda's regular program offering future credits? I can't think of another explanation.

They have various schemes. A MasterCard Promotion for only using that card, then there is CashBack Rewards, and Agoda Cash. They also have something called PointsMaxx but I haven’t a clue what that is and have not read it’s T & C. Agoda used to be a simple APP to use, but I don’t like all the extra stuff on it now.

Yes przyk, I think I mixed up the CashBack Rewards and Agoda Cash. When planning my last stays and trying to book I found it all confusing to read 3 lots of Terms and Conditions and get to grips with the requirements of each one. So I left the Agoda APP and booked on Expedia…LOL

Their Agoda blurb says:- “ Cashback Rewards and AgodaCash are loyalty rewards you may receive when booking eligible offers and completing your stay. While AgodaCash can be redeemed on Agoda to discount your next or future bookings, Cashback Rewards will be cash that you must collect to the debit or credit card of your choice.”
