Last updated: 03/10/2026
What is the KuCard Cashback Program?
The KuCard Cashback Program is a promotional reward program that allows eligible users to receive cashback on qualifying purchases made with their KuCard.
Cashback is granted in accordance with the applicable program rules and does not constitute interest, yield, or a financial return. KuCard and the Cashback Program are available exclusively to eligible users who are residents of New Zealand.
How much cashback can I earn?
The cashback rate depends on your VIP level and other eligibility criteria.
Cashback rates may vary by tier and promotion.
For example, a VIP 0 user may receive cashback at a rate of up to 1.7%, subject to applicable caps.
Current rates, caps, and eligible categories are displayed in the KuCoin app or on the KuCoin website.
Cashback rates are not guaranteed and may be adjusted or discontinued.
