For members

One coin is one rupee off.

During the Mysuru pilot, members get 400 CountR Coins free. Scan the code at a participating shop, type your bill, and pay less. The discount is shown before you submit.

How coins work

Each shop's discount depends on its category and your bill. The discount is worked out, rounded down to whole rupees, and that many coins are used. Here is a month with the Starter grant.

Categories at the highest rate Countr allows; a shop may choose less. The last bill shows what happens when coins run short: you get what is left, and you see it before you submit.

What coins are not

A coin is a discount, not money. We are careful about that, because it is what keeps Countr outside payment regulation — and because you should know exactly what you have.

  • Not sold. Coins come included with a membership, and Countr never sells them.
  • Not cash. They cannot be withdrawn or exchanged for money.
  • Not transferable. You cannot give them to anyone else.
  • Not payment. They reduce a price; you always pay the shop yourself.
  • Not permanent. They expire, and expired coins are not refunded.
  • Not rounded up. A discount of ₹99.90 is ₹99, so you never spend a coin you did not receive.

Plans

Only Starter is open, and only during the pilot, and it is free. The other plans are not open. When they are, a plan will be a membership with coins included, never coins sold for money, and a lawyer will have confirmed that before we take a rupee.

Questions members ask

Is it really free?
During the pilot, yes. The Starter plan is 400 coins, valid for 60 days. We do not ask for a card or any payment details.
Where can I use my coins?
At participating shops in Mysuru. The app lists the ones near you by distance. Some neighbourhoods have few shops so far, and the app will tell you so plainly.
Can I get more coins?
Not during the pilot. Coins are never sold: they come included with a membership, and the only membership open now is the free Starter plan. When other plans open, their coins will come included with the plan in the same way.
Do coins expire?
Yes. Starter coins last 60 days. We remind you 30 days and 7 days before, and expired coins are not refunded.
What if I do not have enough coins for the full discount?
You get as much as your coins cover. The screen shows the reduced discount, what you will pay and how many coins short you are — before you submit, never after.
Why was my discount less than the shop's percentage?
Three possible reasons, and the screen tells you which: the discount is rounded down to whole rupees, the shop has a limit per bill, or the shop has nearly used its monthly budget.
Do I pay through Countr?
No. You pay the shop directly, by cash or UPI, less the discount. No money passes through Countr.
Can I give my coins to family?
No. Coins belong to one member and cannot be transferred.
What do you do with my phone number?
Use it to sign you in and run your membership. We only send you news or offers if you separately agree to that, and you can change your mind in the app.
Can I delete my account?
Yes, yourself, in the app under Account. Your name and number are removed straight away. Records of discounts you received are kept for 8 years because tax law requires it, with your personal details removed.
