No jargon, no catch

From tap to payout, explained fully

Cashback confuses people because most sites want it to. Here is the entire mechanism, including where our money comes from and what happens when something goes wrong.

  1. 01

    Join in two minutes

    Email and a password, that is it. No card details, no credit check, and nothing to install unless you want the browser helper that reminds you when cashback is available.

  2. 02

    Start at KOIN, not the shop

    Search the store you were already going to buy from and tap through from your offer card. That single tap is what tells the retailer the sale came from you.

  3. 03

    Watch the coins land

    Your order shows up as pending within minutes and confirms once the retailer's return window closes. You can see exactly what you earned and from where.

  4. 04

    Cash out on your terms

    Move your balance to your bank account, or convert it into gift cards at a boosted value. No minimum threshold, no admin fee, no expiry on your balance.

Where the money comes from

If a rewards site cannot answer this in three sentences, be suspicious. Here are ours.

Retailers pay for the sale

When you buy after tapping through KOIN, the retailer pays us a commission for introducing the sale. That commission is the only money in the system.

We hand most of it back

The rate on your offer card is your share. We keep a slice to run the platform, negotiate boosts and staff support — and we never take a cut of your balance.

You are the customer, not the product

We do not sell your shopping data to advertisers. Our only revenue is retailer commission, which is why we can afford to be blunt about how it works.

Timing, honestly

Cashback is not instant, because retailers will not confirm a sale until returns are closed. What we can control is the part after that, and we keep it fast.

  • Within minutes

    Your order appears as pending with the expected amount.

  • 14 to 30 days

    The retailer's returns window closes and the amount confirms.

  • Same working day

    You request a withdrawal and it reaches your bank.

  • Anytime

    You can raise a claim if an order never tracked at all.
