Do you use cred and why?

Curious about the cred app. Still not sure what problem it is solving apart from credit card bills tracking.

I guess I am wrong as the company is able to raise money. Though with valuation cuts.

It's awesome. Use it frequently
Just track my credit card bills

They have introduced a new feature called cred money where you can track all transactions done from all of your accounts in the same place. And also a good thing is I can pay my bills using credit card.

I see.

What kind of bills by credit card? Across multiple apps you should be able to pay with credit card, right?

Folks who deleted Cred app, they still have your data. You'll have to drop them and email to delete all your information.

Are they worth it? Mostly new brands and when I checked the prices on Amazon used to be similar or even less.

Yeah, some products can be found at a very reasonable price on some days. So it becomes a habit to check them everyday. But you def get some value of it. But thats just it. Just 2 3 mins of usage per day.

I wouldn't say it's awesome, it's okay. I've 2 credit cards so for me it's just easy to pay for both on one app, rather than paying individually on both bank apps

Cred can help one get some 1-2% off on credit card bills, but it will take time and effort.

  1. I have 4 credit cards, make 1000/- payments every few days to get the spinner and pocket about 300/- per month.
  2. They recently started with discounted gift cards, save about 1000/- per month, incremental to other platforms (Gyftr giving at 5% , Cred at 12% , so 7% incremental).
  3. Also, they have the daily Reward section, make about 200/- per month from there.

Overall, painstaking work, but I pocket ~1500/- per month from Cred.

Valuation does not matter to me, kaunsa hum koi bohot bhaari investor hain to care. Paisa thoda bach jaata hai bas, usse hi matlab hai bhai!

I personally stay away from whatever has "credit" or any resemblance of the same. It is the enemy of your wealth and any savings.

I mostly use CRED only for the UPI payments. Also use to track my credit cards. Sometimes GPay and PayTM very rarely.

I downloaded cred as it had the whole notion of being a "India - 1" app. Never used it except for paying through UPI, sometimes cred money as well, but that's it. I don't use it under the notion of an India 1 app anymore, it has just become a habit to use cred to pay using upi at this point
