The question arises: if given the option, which would customers prefer between discounts, which provide value for money, and cashback, which provides real money?

As a retailer in India, you are likely to face competition from online prices. To entice customers, you often hear them asking, "What's the final rate? It's a common occurrence for foot traffic to rise only when discounts are openly promoted. However, once the discount period ends, the footfall usually declines again.


A retail outlet in India not only has to spend money to acquire customers, but it also has to forego precious space in profit margins to make them buy. Following that, customer retention is still in a grey area. 

Cashback for transactions made in physical stores must be digital. Given that merchants have no control over cashback on card transactions, the only available option is UPI.
