I normally stick to my usual paneer rolls from Roll Xpress or Roll Nation, but I decided to switch it up today and get a Chipotle Chicken Wrap from Faasos. I was comparing prices between apps and noticed something incredibly misleading.
In the first screenshot, my cart total was ₹205. Right at the top, they have a massive banner claiming: "Lowest Price Guaranteed: Found a cheaper cart? Prove it & get 2X free cash." So, I checked Zomato (second screenshot). The exact same order from Faasos came out to ₹137.88.
The math is pretty simple:
₹205 - ₹137.88 = A difference of ₹67.12.
If they actually honored their "2X free cash" promise, I should have received around ₹134 in cash back.
I clicked "Prove It", uploaded the proof of the cheaper Zomato cart, and what did I get? ₹50. They heavily advertise "2X free cash" to stop you from checking other apps, knowing most people won't read the fine print where they probably cap the payout at 50 bucks. Just a heads up to always double-check your cart totals across different apps, because these "guarantees" are absolute garbage.
