In Russia began the program of children’s tourist cashback
The program of children’s tourist cashback, organized by Rosturizm, started on May 25: starting from 0:01 on the night of Monday to Tuesday, parents will be able to buy vouchers to children’s camps with cashback up to 50% of their cost.
The program is valid until the end of the day on August 31, children can go on vacation to the camp from May 25 to September 15.
You can buy a ticket on the website of world travel.rf, payment must be by payment card "Mir". The size of the cashback will be up to 50% of the cost, but not more than 20 thousand rubles. After payment, the money will automatically return to the card from which the purchase was made within five days.
The program involves a thousand stationary children's camps across the country and their list will be replenished. You can buy a ticket directly from the camp or through tour operators and aggregators.
“The key task is to make children’s holidays in the country more affordable, to support those parents who do not have any benefits, and for their money buy tickets to children’s camps. But if the buyer has a certificate of benefit for children's holidays, he can also use cashback. In this case, you can get a return of half of the amount that the parent pays additionally to the certificate, but not more than 20 thousand rubles, said Doguzova.
If the parent decides to refuse the ticket and return his money, the cashback will be automatically debited from his card.
On May 24, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko said at a meeting with Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin that parents who purchased a trip to a children's camp for summer shifts in 2021 before the start of the program can apply for a refund on the public services website from June 15. After presentation of payment documents, they will also receive 50% of the amount paid, but not more than 20 thousand rubles.
The total expenditure of the Russian budget for the program will amount to 12 billion rubles.
