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