ixigo Money, a virtual travel currency and loyalty programme, has helped travellers save over ₹ 100 crore in last 12 months, travel marketplace ixigo said on Thursday.

Launched a year ago, the response to ‘ixigo money’ has been overwhelming, Aloke Bajpai, CEO & Co-Founder, ixigo said.

In a span of 12 months, over 2 lakh loyal ixigo users have even booked flights for absolutely free with the ixigo money they had accumulated on previous transaction, he said.

“We want every traveller to get 100 percent value for their money by being able to use all the cashback that they earn on their next booking”, Bajpai said.

On ixigo, travellers booking flights can not only earn ‘ixigo money’ on flight bookings, but also spend 100 percent of their balance on their next flight booking, making it hard to beat the savings that one gets by using ixigo.

ixigo money is now being introduced on train and bus bookings on ixigo, and will soon be available for use on hotel bookings.
