Questions about Kate Deals

Getting started with Kate Deals

  • We analyse and use your data to show you a personalised selection of Kate Deals. To use the Kate Deals service, you have to be over 18 years of age and accept the relevant terms and conditions.
  • You have a personal current account at KBC for receiving the cashbacks you earn.
  • You have opted for ‘Personalised’ and accepted ‘Extra convenience’.

We offer two types of deal:

  1. Discount code: you get money off your purchase when you show a discount code
  2. Cashback: we credit the discount to your account after you’ve made the purchase

Can’t see a particular deal in the list anymore? 

  • Deals are time-limited. As soon as the deal expires, it disappears from the list and you can’t use it anymore.
  • Some deals can only be used a certain number of times. Once you’ve redeemed an activated deal the maximum number of times, it disappears automatically from the list.
  • You’ve hidden the Kate Deals section. To reactivate it, tap ‘Personalise home screen’ at the bottom of your home screen.
  • There are no Kate Deals for you at the moment.
  • You removed Kate Deals from your home page.

Deals involving a cashback are separate from any other offers or promotions run by the retailers themselves. So you’re free to combine all the benefits.

For deals with a discount code, it’s the retailer who decides what the discount code can be used for. Just tap the deal in question for more information.

KBC only uses your details to identify the deals that are relevant to you. We don’t share them with the participating retailers.

Some retailers prefer to offer deals only to new customers, others only to existing ones. They may also decide only to offer deals to customers who live in the same province as where their outlet is located.

Your deals may also be shown in a different order to someone else’s, because we rank them according to your personal details and other information.

Deals with cashback

As the name suggests, cashback means getting money back. It’s not an immediate discount, but an amount you get back after purchasing a product or service.
Your cashback from Kate Deals can be either a fixed amount or a percentage of the total purchase amount. In some cases, a minimum amount has to be spent.

1. Shop and automatically redeem your cashback
Pay online or in the high street with a KBC personal account (using your debit card, credit card, KBC Mobile or Payconiq).

2. Get cashbacks
On the first business day of the month, your cashbacks will be credited automatically to the account you paid with or the account your credit card is linked to. You also get an overview of all your cashbacks to see how much you’ve saved.

3. Return period
Some retailers have a return period during which you may return all or part of your purchase. This means you’ll not receive some cashbacks until after that period has expired if you’ve not returned your purchase during the cooling-off period or sent it back to the shop. You can see exactly when this period ends – if there is one – for each cashback under ‘Pending cashbacks’.

Redeem deals when you use a KBC means of payment, online or in-store. This can be a debit card/joint debit card, credit card, money transfer, direct debit or mobile payment method (specifically Payconiq or the KBC Payment Button) linked to a KBC current account you hold yourself or jointly. Whatever’s most convenient for you! You do, however, have to make payment from a personal account.

You receive them on the first business day of the month following the purchase. They’re credited to the (joint) account you paid with or the (joint) account your credit card is linked to.

If a cashback doesn’t appear in the list of amounts you still have to receive, quickly run through this checklist:
  • Did you make the purchase at a participating shop or online store? 
  • Did you buy something today? If so, your cashback will only appear in the list tomorrow.
  • Was the deal still valid when you made the purchase?
  • Did you use a KBC means of payment to pay?
  • Has the purchase price been debited from your account yet?
  • Did you pay with a credit card? If so, it can take a bit longer for the cashback to appear in the list.

If your problem still hasn’t been cleared up, contact our helpdesk on 016 43 25 30 or at extraservicessupport@kbc.be.

If you bought something at the end of the month, your cashbacks may not have been registered right away. In that case, they appear under ‘Still to be received’ and will be paid the following month.

Like to use the cash to support a favourite club or organisation? Simply open KBC Mobile, go to ‘Kate Deals’ > ‘Manage’ > ‘Support a club or organisation with Trooper’ and choose who you’d like to support. Your cashbacks will then be credited to your favourite club or organisation every month.

If you want, you can share your name and e-mail address. Trooper will then notify your favourite club or organisation that you’re supporting them and will also send you an e-mail as soon as they receive your donation. If you’d like to know how Trooper processes your data, go to its data protection statement. If you’d rather remain anonymous, just select the checkbox indicating that your name and e-mail address may not be shared.

You can change the club or organisation you want to support at any time, or cancel your donations. Any changes apply to all your cashbacks over the past month and to all cashbacks you earn in the future. Learn more about Trooper in KBC Mobile.

Deals with a discount code

You can see when a deal has a discount code by the small image of the code at the bottom left of the tile.

Tap the relevant deal and generate your code.

All discount codes you generate can be found in the deals start screen. They remain there while they are still valid.

The discount codes you can use in shops are also easy to find offline:

  • Open KBC Mobile
  • Tap the notch (with the wallet icon) on the right side of the app’s screen
