05.02.2024

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to get paid for buying on Allegro? Poland’s favourite online shopping platform launches the test phase of a new feature that ensures exactly that! Allegro Cash is a new, simple and free payment method with certain cashback for what you buy on Allegro.

Thanks to Allegro Cash you will be able to receive up to 2% cashback for your Allegro purchases if you are an Allegro Smart! subscriber. All it will take is to go to the Allegro app to easily set up an online bank account. You top it up at will and pay swiftly and conveniently with Allegro Cash while browsing the unrivalled Allegro selection. All fuss-free and at no extra cost. Testing should take a few months.

Allegro is the first to come up with cashback as an embedded financial benefit for its customers. As with every Allegro breakthrough, Allegro Cash is to be super easy and transparent. Customers want to shop smart. Our research shows that almost three-thirds of Poles actively look for discounts and attractive promotions. A similar part of the respondents limits their spending to the most necessary things, leaving bigger purchases for better times. Almost all Allegro customers we surveyed also expressed interest in a cashback option, so we are offering a solution that is safe and gives something in return. We are now starting a test run. Ultimately, we want to extend and expand it.”

Cashback as a sales incentive resonated most with customers compared to other value-added services, with 9/10 Allegro users declaring interest in an embedded cashback option. Allego Cash is yet another way for Allegro to answer the consumer need for smart and safe shopping. Cashback is added to the Allegro Cash account according to a simple rule: 1% cashback for orders from one seller worth at least 100 zlotys, and 2% return for orders worth at least 200 zlotys. You can get up to PLN 20 for one purchase with a PLN 50 monthly cap. The parameters will also be under review during the test phase.

Allegro Cash is a continuation of Allegro’s collaboration with Aion Bank and Vodeno, which already support Allegro Pay with loan purchases. Aion and Vodeno offer services in the Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) model for customers throughout Europe. Aion will provide banking account services for Allegro Cash, while Vodeno will be responsible for the technical functionalities related to BaaS services.
