When will the rewards for a booking be credited to my account balance.
- The confirmation time depends on the travel brand and the service category.

When earnings are usually added
| Category | When earnings are confirmed and added to your balance |
| Flights |
Usually within 24 hours after the booking is made, once the brand confirms that the ticket was paid for. However, booking statistics for a few agencies, including Pegasus, are updated only once a month. Note: Low-cost airlines, as a rule, do not pay a fee to agents for selling tickets. This means we cannot pay earnings to partners as we don’t receive it ourselves. You can find more information about low-cost airlines in this article. |
| Hotels & Accommodation | Usually 2–4 months after the guest checks out. For example, Booking.com confirmation may take 60–90 days after checkout, while Trip.com may update statuses around 30 days after checkout. |
| Package Tours and Tours & Activities | Usually on the tour start date or after the travel service has been provided. Some brands, including Viator and Youtravel, update bookings’ statuses and pay the earnings after the travel services have been provided. |
| Car & Bike rentals | Usually after the drop-off date, when the rental service has been completed. This is typical of such travel brands as Discover Cars, etc. |
