As for your cash back idea, you're more likely to spend more using a credit card than you are with cash, check, or even debit card. Significant enough that the money you're "making" or "earning" you've anyway spent on random other...

What the lender does it lend at interest free. They calculate the interest but do not apply it to the loan unless the borrower misses a monthly payment. If that occurs then they add the interest into the pay back. I have three such loans and I make the payments on time so I pay no interest. It is interest free borrowed money in that regard.
