Conclusion
It is a well-known fact that during a platform’s initial stage, it tends to offer attractive and enticing deals. However, once they become established and well-known, these offers may become less generous. This pattern has been observed with platforms like Paytm, Cred, and others. Thus, joining a platform during its initial stage can provide a range of benefits that come with being part of its launch.
