Cash Back[edit]
Originally proposed at Wikidata:Property proposal/Generic
| Description | Cash or Points received for spending money as part of a loyalty program |
|---|---|
| Data type | Number (not available yet) |
| Domain | payment card (Q1436963) |
| Allowed units | currency |
| Example | Chase Sapphire Reserve (Q38074863) → 3 (units: percent (Q11229)), qualifiers: applies to part (P518): travel (Q61509) |
| Source | Individual card websites |
See Wikidata:Property_proposal/Generic/CardProps. The items used for the applies to qualifier will have to be structured. There isn't a really good source of data for the different reward categories, however the Visa Supplier Locator could be used to help define these categories.

- Currently, the description says "Cash or Points" whie the allowed unit is set to currency. How does this work with a card that gives points? ChristianKl (talk) 15:05, 29 August 2017 (UTC)
- Good question. There should be another qualifier: currency (P38), with the reward currency that is being earned. So for example, in a card that gives "cashback" as points: Chase Sapphire Reserve (Q38074863) -> Cash Back -> 3, qualifiers: currency (P38): Chase Ultimate Reward Point (Q38074153), applies to part (P518): travel (Q61509). So spending $100 on travel would give you 3x100 = 300 Chase UR points. For a card that gives you straight cash back: Card -> Cash Back -> 3 (units: percent (Q11229)), currency (P38): United States dollar (Q4917). Meaning spending $100 would give you 100*0.03=$3 back.

- This is a little complicated as you really have two currencies, the currency you spend and the currency you get back as an award. I'd say that the currency you spend does not really matter because you are getting back a percentage of, or multiplier of that value, and so the currency/units of cash spent is irrelevant. Maybe to make it clearer, in the first example (Chase UR), we have a unit "multiplier" on the 3, meaning you get back 3x of whatever you spent in units "units".
