How the credits are applied and when they expire

There are no credits. You open a Cashfree merchant account via 'Create Account' or 'Sign Up for Free' (or 'Contact Sales'), complete onboarding and KYC in the dashboard, and then confirm with sales whether the festive 0% gateway-fee offer on sales up to ₹20L applies to your account. Cashfree publishes no end date or full terms for that offer on the startup page.

Approval time

Not published (Cashfree advertises same-day onboarding; KYC applies)

For founders in India

Built for Indian businesses: the offer is denominated in rupees (₹20L) and onboarding runs through standard Indian merchant KYC in the Cashfree dashboard. No separate eligibility criteria for startups are published.

How to apply, step by step

1. Go to cashfree.com/startups
2. Click 'Create Account' (or 'Sign Up for Free') to open a merchant account, or 'Contact Sales'
3. Complete merchant onboarding and KYC in the Cashfree dashboard
4. Ask sales whether the festive 0% fee offer applies to your account

Documents and details to keep ready

• Not published on the startup page (standard merchant KYC applies at sign-up)

Tips before you apply

• Ask sales in writing whether the 0% fee offer applies to your account, and when it ends, before you rely on it
• Keep KYC documents ready to make use of the advertised same-day onboarding
• If you sell on Shopify, Wix or WooCommerce, use Cashfree's ready plugins instead of a custom integration

Terms to know

• The 0% fee offer is labelled festive and asterisked; Cashfree publishes no end date or full terms on this page
