I was going to complain about that, but then I looked at their bug bounty program: https://mcdelivery.co.in/bug-bounty

"The reward for a valid bug will be Rs. 2,500/- (Rupees Two Thousand Five Hundred only) in the form of coupons (applicable only in McDonald’s India West & South). Such coupons shall need to be used within the validity period mentioned therein and shall not be, encashable or transferable."

That's less than $30 per bug in non-transferable McDonald's coupons that only work in India, which is thousands of miles away from the bug reporter. Compared to what he thought he would get, a $240 Amazon gift card is a good deal.




It would be nice to see rewards that scale with severity. Ultimately they did accomodate me by sending a gift card I can use instead of coupons I would likely have given away, so I appreciate that. Most companies don't offer me anything!
