How it works

Cashback as a reward card, not a reversal.

Traditional cashback means crediting money back to an account — expensive, slow, and operationally heavy. QIFTS cashback issues a reward card to the recipient instead. Same perceived value to the customer, dramatically lower cost and complexity for you.

Traditional cashback

Reversal takes 3–5 business days

Expensive to process per transaction

Requires bank/wallet integration per market

No control over where money is spent

QIFTS cashback reward card

Issued in under 2 seconds

No bank reversal — far cheaper per issuance

One API works across 13 African markets

Recipient spends at curated local brands

Use cases

Every cashback model.
Every market.

Banks, fintechs, e-commerce platforms, and FMCG brands across Africa all use QIFTS to run cashback programmes — without the operational overhead of traditional cash reversals.

Bank & card cashback

Issue cashback on card spend — per transaction, per category, or per merchant. Works on debit cards, credit cards, and virtual cards across Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, South Africa, and Egypt. Cashback issued as a reward card, not a bank reversal.

Fintech & mobile money cashback

Trigger cashback on mobile money transfers, bill payments, or wallet top-ups. Ideal for fintechs building loyalty on OPay, Flutterwave, M-Pesa, MTN MoMo, and similar rails.

E-commerce purchase cashback

Issue cashback on checkout — percentage of order value, fixed amount, or category-specific. Works via API webhook on any e-commerce stack. No SDK required.

Utility & bills cashback

Reward customers for paying electricity, water, internet, or TV bills via your platform. Cashback issued the moment payment confirms. Strong retention driver for USSD-first bill payment apps.

Spend threshold programmes

Issue escalating cashback based on cumulative monthly spend — 2% at ₦50k, 5% at ₦100k, 10% at ₦200k. QIFTS tracks spend per customer and issues the right reward at the right threshold automatically.

Multi-market cashback campaigns

Run a unified cashback programme across Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, and South Africa. One API integration, local currency cashback per market, consolidated reporting across all markets.
