Claiming a Discount

Points come back as a refund on a transaction you have already made. Pick the transaction, choose how much of it to refund, and the money arrives in USDC.

There are four options. The number of points each dollar costs depends on which one you pick.

25% of the transaction

A quarter or a half costs 100 points per dollar. Above that, the rate rises to 112 points per dollar at 75%, and 125 points per dollar for a full refund.

Which Transactions You Can Claim Against

The transaction has to be:

  • Eligible for points in the first place

  • The discount needs to be at least 0.5$

  • Not refunded and not already claimed
