How does Pay by Cash work?
Once you book with Travelguru.com & choose the 'Pay by Cash' option & fill in all details. You will receive a call from a Delhivery Executive within 2 hrs of your booking.
  • If your booking was before 11: 00 am, then your money will be collected within the same day. If your booking is later than 11:00 am, the collection will be done on/by the next day.
  • You will receive a call from the Delhivery Executive to fix an appointment and confirm the order for collection of cash.
  • If the cash to be collected against your order is Rs. 50,000 or more, it is mandatory to hand over a photo-copy of your Income Tax PAN Card to the Delhivery Executive. (Cash will NOT be collected if this rule is not observed)
  • Delhivery Executive will visit your mentioned address to collect the payment. He will provide 2 receipts (one from Travelguru & one from Delhivery).
  • In case the amount to be collected is less than Rs. 5000, Travelguru will charge you Rs. 50 for this service.
  • After receiving the payment, a confirmation email & SMS will be sent from Travelguru.
Your booking is provisional and needs to be confirmed by making the cash payment to the Delhivery Executive. The booking stands confirmed only if money is collected by midnight of the next day.

If this is not done, your booking automatically stands cancelled and you may have to re-book, based on the updated availability/ rates. An auto-expiry message will be sent to your email by Travelguru.com.

Please note that the Delhivery pick-up may not happen if:
  • You fail to respond to the calls made by Delhivery's Executive (maximum 3 attempts)
  • You are not accessible on phone throughout the day.
  • You have confirmed the appointment but are not available at home when Delhivery's Executive visits.

  • It is important that your address and landmark are very clear. This will help us locate you easily and complete the process faster
  • Please be available at the designated address with the full amount of cash as per the provisional voucher sent to you. Your booking gets cancelled if we do not receive full amount of cash on the designated date.
  • Before payment of cash to Delhivery Executive, please make sure that the person approaching you is a genuine employee of Delhivery and that he provides you an official Delhivery receipt and a Travelguru provisional booking voucher.
