How Holipay cashback works

Holipay cashback is not points and not a discount code. It is a wallet credit after an eligible booking, and only once the trip is confirmed.

How Holipay cashback works

Holipay cashback is money returned on an eligible flight booking. You compare fares on holipay.io, pay the airline or the agency, and Holipay can credit a share of the partner commission after the trip is confirmed. The public ceiling is up to 10%. Most bookings pay less. Nothing is taken as a membership fee, and nothing is paid if the booking is cancelled.

Cashback is not a cheaper price at the till. It is money after the airline confirms the trip.

The order

  1. Search on Holipay cheap flights or from the destination map.
  2. Read the fare and the cashback estimate together. The estimate is not locked.
  3. Book on the provider's site. Holipay does not take the card and does not add a markup.
  4. Fly. When the partner confirms the booking, the credit can move to your Holipay wallet.
  5. Withdraw in euros to PayPal or a bank once the balance is at least €100.

That is the whole mechanism. How Holipay works is the same loop on the site. What Holipay is is the shorter definition.

What it is not

  • Not a code that lowers the price on the airline's payment page.
  • Not miles, and not a voucher you can only spend on the next search.
  • Not paid on a cancelled or unconfirmed booking.
  • Not a reason to pick a fare that is much more expensive. If another result is cheaper by more than the estimate, take the cheaper result.

Questions

Is Holipay cashback real money?

Yes, when it is confirmed. It is withdrawn in euros, not as points.

Why is my result less than 10%?

Because 10% is the top, not the rate on every fare. The partner decides the estimate you see.

Can I withdraw €20?

Not yet. The minimum is €100 of confirmed cashback.

Where do I start?

holipay.io, then a search from your city.
