What is Cashback on LootBazaar?
On LootBazaar, "cashback" refers to the affiliate commission you earn when someone buys through your tracked link. It is not a discount given to the buyer — it is a commission paid by the store (via the Cuelinks affiliate network) to the publisher who drove the sale.
The Complete Cashback Flow
- Publisher generates a tracked short link using the Link Generator.
- User clicks the short link → redirected through Cuelinks tracking → lands on the product page.
- User completes the purchase. Cuelinks records the transaction with the publisher's unique sub_id (UUID).
- Cuelinks sends a postback notification to LootBazaar's webhook at /api/postback/cuelinks.
- LootBazaar records the transaction in the publisher_transactions table with status = "pending".
- When the store confirms the order is not returned, Cuelinks updates the status to "confirmed".
- The confirmed commission is added to the publisher's withdrawable balance.
How Commission is Calculated
Each store has a different commission rate set by Cuelinks. Here are the current rates for top stores:
| Store | Type | Cuelinks Rate | You Earn |
|---|---|---|---|
| Amazon India | CPS | Upto 3.17% | 3.17% of sale |
| Flipkart | CPS | Upto 6.00% | 6.00% of sale |
| Ajio | CPS | Upto 9.00% | 9.00% of sale |
| Myntra | CPS | Upto 7.50% | 7.50% of sale |
| Meesho | CPS | Upto 10.00% | 10.00% of sale |
| Amazon US | CPC | Upto ₹6.42/click | ₹6.42 per click |
How the Postback System Works
When Cuelinks detects a completed sale, it sends a POST request to LootBazaar's postback URL containing: the transaction_id, the publisher's sub_id (their unique user UUID), the sale amount, the commission earned, and the current order status.
LootBazaar's server validates the secret token, checks that the publisher exists and is not suspended, then upserts the transaction record. If the same transaction arrives again with a different status (e.g. pending → confirmed), the record is updated automatically without creating a duplicate.
When is Cashback Credited to My Wallet?
- 📥 Pending: Recorded immediately when the postback arrives. Visible in your dashboard but not withdrawable yet.
- ✅ Confirmed: After the store confirms the order (30–90 days). This amount is withdrawable.
- ❌ Cancelled: If the order is returned or rejected by the store. Removed from your balance.
