    Does Amazon gift stack with cash back? And any delivery fees?

    • Mokr on 26/10/2019 - 08:43

      No delivery fees but may need to ring to activate card

      I'm wondering the same thing about stacking this with Amazon purchases. Can we still get 12% cashback from Shopback?

    • jimojr on 26/10/2019 - 09:07

      Yes, but not delivery fee and not with Amazon credit.

        The limit they set in the system is not based on number of cards but based on the amount.
        - $1500 per transaction.
        - $2000 per day which means the 2nd transaction in the same day you can only use $500 gc
        - $5000 per month.

      For me the cards were sent pretty quick in the last promo (VIC). But the cashback was super delayed due to some issue at Shopback, hopefully this time it's ok.

          T&Cs updated and excluded giftcards this time in No.7. It really means it was gone forever.

          • uvbunny on 26/10/2019 - 21:38

            @Neoika: I'm pretty sure the terms already excluded gift cards in previous deals that still allowed you to buy gift cards from ebay AU, so I don't think the T&C really have much to do with it.

            But I also agree that now that they've finally fixed what was obviously a loophole, it's not terribly likely to come back again.

    For your protection, gift card orders $200 and over in total are required to be activated once you have received your order. Call 1800 331 794 between 8.30am-5pm AEST, Monday-Friday to activate your gift cards.

        Last time I bought $300 ebay gift cards. I received six $50 cards and I had to call them to activate. They said I have to wait another 24 hours after the activation to be able to use the cards.

        • cipher on 26/10/2019 - 11:42

          Ya they tell you 24 hrs but mine got activated immediately

        • MuddyClear on 26/10/2019 - 11:42

          Must be annoying providing serial numbers for all 6 cards over phone for activation?

          • cipher on 26/10/2019 - 11:43

            @MuddyClear: Annoying part was spending 15 mins in the call while they figured out who does this. No one seems to know. So when you call you can tell them to send to phillatic team

        Dodgy deal if you need a rep to fix it up. They are counting on a percentage of people not following the shop back requirements for eligibility, simply forgetting about it, can’t be bothered chasing up the money or correct amount. That’s their business model for maximising profits

        • Samsungnote10 on 26/10/2019 - 12:47

      Investigating this at the moment, yes we do see the transactions are coming in at $0 at the moment. It appears the rate on AP's end hasn't been configured properly. We'll let you guys know once we've rolled out a fix.

        • MuddyClear on 26/10/2019 - 15:59

          A couple of months and still waiting? Wow… I rather not support these types of businesses and hope they die off. I much prefer retailers deal directly with customers to get the best possible deal without third party profiteering

          • GregMonarch on 26/10/2019 - 18:14

            @MuddyClear:

            1. The retailers don't give any 'best possible deal'. ;-D (We're getting a cashback they otherwise wouldn't give to anyone.)
            2. The fault is in AP's system - not SB's. So I'm unsure why we'd want them to die off, because then we're back at point 1 again. i.e. Even if we only received half our cashbacks, and never bothered to dispute the missing ones, receiving 50% of them is better than 0%.
            • MuddyClear on 26/10/2019 - 18:19
              +1

              @GregMonarch: I don’t agree with you. There is always a bottom line and retailers factor in the cash back offer when setting the price of their items. Reality is you are paying a slightly higher premium for a cash back that takes months to claim.

              • GregMonarch on 26/10/2019 - 18:34

                @MuddyClear: Maybe I'm not understanding what you've written, but the cashbacks I've received from shopback and cashrewards were not available to other buyers - and I wouldn't have received any discount either if SB & CR didn't exist.

                i.e. If they both disappeared, retailers wouldn't suddenly drop their prices a few % for everyone. In fact they could do that right now if they wanted to - which would eliminate the coding required to report tracking back to SB & CR, plus drive them out of business. Yet they don't. I'm also not seeing increased prices because of it. The number of 'cashbackers' is so small, it wouldn't be increasing prices - the extra sales they otherwise wouldn't have made cover that tiny % 'lost' anyway.

                • samehada on 26/10/2019 - 18:38

                  @GregMonarch: It can be considered as advertisement cost which is similar to what they pay for Google or Facebook. These cashback site will do the advertisement to promote them.

                  • GregMonarch on 26/10/2019 - 18:47
                    -1

                    @samehada: Well, yeah - there's a few different ways to look at it. Those customers returning in the future too… I just don't get what he means by retailers factoring in the cash back offer. i.e. Costing everyone more is what that means.

                    Products didn't change when SP & CR came along, and will be the same when they're gone. Retailers aren't going to think, "Oh, SB & CR have gone, so let's knock 2.5% off everything for everyone now." Neither would they be thinking, "CR & SB are costing us 5% cashback on 0.00000001% of our customers Australia-wide - let's put prices up for everyone by 1% to recoup that cost."

                    It brings in customers, it costs them 5 cents to sell an item they otherwise wouldn't have sold, and makes $xx less 5% profit, etc.

                    I dunno… Maybe I'm wrong.

            @MuddyClear: "I much prefer retailers deal directly with customers to get the best possible deal without third party profiteering"

            Do you have homeloan? Bank do not give you lower rate if you go to them directly instead of brokers.

            Why? Because you don't bite the hand that feed you. Shopback is one of many channels for business to get customer.

            • MuddyClear on 26/10/2019 - 18:46

              @samehada: You’re probably getting a worse deal with a broker - been there, done that. On the odd occasion you might get an OK deal but most of the time brokers push a deal that is better for the banks and not you as they get a higher commission. In any case it’s best to shop around.

              • samehada on 26/10/2019 - 18:49

                @MuddyClear: You completely don't get my post. If you compare the same deal with the same bank via broker or go directly to that bank you won't get lower rate.

                You are talking about shopping around that is comparing Apple and Orange.

                If you've already done your homework and ask the broker for the specific bank deal you will get the same deal.

      It's best to refer to our website for the most up to date T&Cs as that post was not submitted by us and it was made more than 6 months ago.

      Current T&Cs:

      Cashback is only payable on order value (excludes taxes, shipping and packaging costs) and is valid on orders paid for with gift cards (not orders with Amazon credit)

      As such orders paid with gift cards are valid. Do note that gift cards purchased from AusPost are physical gift cards which will be sent in the mail and as such will not arrive on time to stack with today's 12% Amazon promo.

        If above is true we all have to be careful to use gift card only if we are ordering something with exact value.

      Yes

      You can spend more than one gift card at a time, or use a gift card on top of a voucher or discount offer. At checkout, put in one code at a time in the Gift cards, vouchers, coupons section and select Apply after each one to update your order total. You can use up to 8 codes per transaction.

        1. Coles gc is not easy to get and there is limit as well. I.e $500 per week to $500 per month.
        2. The last time I use hsbc paywave I got blocked after 6-7 times so it also an arbitrary limit. Even I buy again next day I got declined after just 1 tap.

        HSBC also has limit of $2500 spend per month ($50 cashback)

        What you said is good in theory only.

          Thanks for sharing experience, I only did max 2 times a day.

          Only good if you are work or live near a Woolies so you can spread out the frequency over many days.

            @Neoika: Catalogue sale is only 7 days and with the popular cards it will be out of stock after the first 2-3days.

            Not to mention your wasted time and petrol cost to go back to WW. I may not worth that saving.
