You heard it right! Now, you get to use your Discount Bonus to pay ₹25 or 10% (whichever is higher) of the total entry, i.e. the total amount you pay to join contests in a match. Why this change was important? This way, you get the maximum benefit out of your Discount Bonus balance.
Let’s take two examples:
E.g., 1: You join 1 contest for NZ vs WI.
Contests Joined | Discount Bonus | Entry | Discount Bonus Used |
1 Contest | ₹100 | ₹33 | ₹25 (₹25>10% of ₹33) |
Since 10% of the match entry amount is less than ₹25 of your Discount Bonus balance, the amount of Discount Bonus used in this case is ₹25
E.g., 2: You join 2 contests for IND vs AUS.
Contests Joined | Discount Bonus | Entry | Discount Bonus Used |
Contest 1 | ₹0 | ₹150 | ₹0 |
Contest 2 | ₹100 | ₹200 | ₹35 (₹25<10% of ₹350) |
Note that you didn’t have any Discount Bonus while joining the first contest. Therefore, 10% of the total match entry amount (₹350) can be from your Discount Bonus in the account as it's greater than ₹25. Hence, the total Discount Bonus used here for both contests combined is ₹35.
While using a Discount Bonus, please remember:
- Discount Bonus is used only to join public contests
- You can use a Discount Bonus to join cash contests only if you've deposited cash in your Dream11 account.
