One97 Communications Limited that owns the brand Paytm, India’s leading digital payments and financial services company and the pioneer of QR and mobile payments, has launched the Best Price Guaranteed programme for bus ticket bookings on the Paytm app. With this, Paytm users booking bus tickets will get cashback of two times the price difference if they find a lower price on any other online travel aggregator (OTA).
To avail this offer, users need to book tickets with the promo code “BESTPRICE” and they will get a flat 20% cashback of up to ₹100. Additionally, if the user finds a lower price for the booking on any other OTA, a cashback of two times the price difference up to ₹500 will be transferred in their Paytm Wallet within seven days of completing a successful bus journey. The offer is applicable only on booking with private bus service operators.
While comparing the prices, users need to ensure that the bus operator, services offered (AC/non-AC, seat type-seater/sleeper etc.), date and time of the journey are the same on both the platforms.
