Well, in this post we talk about everything about OYO Rooms‘ virtual currency.

You will get to know what is OYO money and how you can use it while booking and for payment. Also, we have covered some FAQs at the end of the article to clear all your doubts about it.

How To Use OYO Money- For Booking And Payments

Before learning how to use it, let’s first learn what actually it is. That will help you understand its usage and benefits.

What Is OYO Money

OYO Money is one of the two virtual currencies OYO has. The other one is OYO Rupee.

It is a promotional amount that can be used to pay for booking in applicable properties. The usage of this virtual currency is city and property-specific. And since it is a promotional credit, its usage is limited to booking and payment.

You can find your OYO money on your profile page.

OYO Money Usage Policy

You can use 10 to 30 percent of OYO money of the booking amount while creating a booking from the official website or application.

That means you cannot use all of it to pay for the booking.

For Example, let us assume you have 1000₹ in your virtual wallet. And you wish to book a room for 1200.

Then the maximum you can use from the wallet is 120₹ to 360₹ (10% to 30% of the booking amount).

How To Use OYO Money For Payment?

So, how can you use it while booking rooms?

Well, using it is really simple. You don’t have to do anything to redeem it. OYO calculates the applicable amount at the time of booking and deducts it from your wallet automatically.

As mentioned above, this virtual currency is city and property specific. That means it is possible that it might not be applicable to some of the properties.

But, if it is applicable in the property you wish to book a room then it will be auto deducted from your wallet when you create the booking.

The percentage of booking amount to be paid from the OYO wallet depends on the property and is decided by OYO Rooms. You cannot choose the percentage (10% or 30%) of the booking amount to be paid from the OYO wallet. These things are done automatically.

How To Get OYO Money

Well, since it is a promotional amount, it is credited through different offers and coupons. Also, it is sometimes credited to the wallet with a completed hotel room booking.

It cannot be earned by using referrals. It is promotionally added to your wallet automatically.
