Alot of comments experiencing 24h+ delays receiving the gift cards, better off purchasing through Woolworths deal below if you want to spend immediately
Or can buy it at woolworths
10% Off Kogan eGiftcards @ Kogan .. email delivery by next business day (going by comments it's instant delivery long delays read comments)
.. ..
can it be used for Kogan mobile plans?
It can't -
Kogan.com Gift Cards are only redeemable for goods and services at Kogan.com, and are not redeemable for goods and services at any other Kogan branded websites (eg. Koganmobile.com.au) or any other Kogan branded subdomain (eg. Hotels.kogan.com).
i think it works if website is kogan.com like this one…I remember reading something to that effect in past deal comments.
https://www.kogan.com/au/buy/kogan-mobile-prepaid-voucher-co…
Going off what the T&Cs say
i think it works if website is kogan.com like this one
That would make sense. Would be interested to know if it still works.
yes it's ok when you buy the prepaid voucher from the Kogan website,
just not recharging from koganmobile portal
Why can't they email straight away?
It says this in additional info:
E-gift cards estimated delivery time is 5 minutes. In rare circumstances delivery may be delayed.
Not sure where the next day comes from?
Ah OK, it says by next business day. I’m guessing that’s just to cover themselves in case there is a delay or someone orders late in the day.
I just purchased the $100 gift card for $90, and I got the email with the gift card and code, added it to my account and the credit applied to my account all within 5 minutes. Hope that helps you guys!
any one has the citi signiture visa credit card? I think there is a promo that spent 100 on Kogan you get 20 back. Not sure gift card is eligible or not though..
this is what i was thinking, sadly i just used it yesterday on kogan :( to buy those SSDs…
was wondering the same thing, but might be too risky. Looks like the giftcard purchases goes through another webpage and different shopping cart from normal purchases. I reckon Ruslan Kogan is too shifty to allow double dipping on his business.
Normally the credit card rebate has nothing to do with the merchant.. it's out of the card issuer not the merchant, but this is just in general..
Saw this and got excited, then realised I've got the Citi Signature Qantas Credit Card which was previously the Citi Signature Rewards card.
Might be able to combine with Kogan westpac offer if you are targeted
flickr is talking about this $20 Cashback with $100 Minimum Spend @ Kogan with a Westpac Credit Card
Can anyone confirm the Kogan gift card site is valid for this cashback?
Can I purchase $540 worth of gift cards (gift card value $600) to rack up my min $500 spend on my Kogan Black Credit Card within the first 30 days of approival & get the $500 bonus credit at Kogan?
So basically I would get $1100.00 of credit value at Kogan for only $540.00?
Kogan Black Credit Card Spend $500 to get $500 credit offer: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/506584#comment-8135146
Guys, here is my overall plan.
Kogan currently has 10% off their Kogan Gift cards so I was planning on purchasing $540 worth which would get me $600 Kogan Credit on my account using the Kogan Black Credit Card within 30 days of approval.
1) Get approved for Kogan's Black Credit Card
2) Purchase $540 worth of gift cards (gift card value $600) at 10% off to rack up my min $500 spend on my Kogan Black Credit Card within the first 30 days of approval.
3) Eventually (not sure when) I should be get send the $500 Kogan Bonus credit for spending $500 within the first 30 days right.
So basically I would get $1100.00 of credit value at Kogan for only $540.00?

Anyone see any issues with doing this? Worst case the Giftcards are full price again & I'd pay $500 worth of gift cards that are valid for 36 months, and get my bonus $500 credit making my spend $500 for $1000 value.
also my plan
Noice! Any issues do you think using the credit card to purchase Kogan Gift cards from Kogans website? https://giftcards.kogan.com/
Was going to do same to buy a iPhone or something that dosent go on sale
Depends how long the 10% discount runs for? Approval and delivery of card might take until after Christmas with all the holidays.
I'm also doing the exact same.
Just bought 5 x $100 and 1 x $50 gift cards from Woolworths (they also have 10% off).
I'm hoping purchase of these gift cards meet the eligibility criteria and count towards the $500 min spend in 30 days.
Does this meet with the T&C's?
Would love to do this myself.
Yes it's any spend/purchase. Would double down on points as well cos you get double while purchasing from kogan using this card eh eh eh
Excellent plan @graceyym, thanks for sharing. Planning to avail that myself. Just awaiting to get the Kogan credit card delivered, it has been approved just now. Please let me know if at all you find out any catch (I hope not)
received order confirmation at 11AM but yet to receive the gift cards
just waitin
Same here. Damn…
Maybe check your junk emails? I got the gift card before I got any confirmation. It was received within 5 minutes.
Nothing in my junk/spam email folder at the moment…
I just read the FAQ a moment ago, and noticed this -
"Please note: eGift cards are not currently available to customers in NSW"
https://help.kogan.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001911948
D'oh. I'm in NSW - I wonder if that's why it's not forthcoming…
Have opened a help request. Damn…
@jelreyn: I'm in Sydney, NSW. My eGift Card email came withing 5 minutes. How strange..
They must have recently updated the FAQ's or something becaues I made my purchase at about 10:07am & received the email from <[email protected]> at 10:13am this morning.
Might I add, I still have not received an order notification for the eGift Card I purchased, I literally only received the eGift Card Email with the code/pin to add to my account. Applied it instantly.
@graceyym: Ok, thanks for letting me know. I'm in Sydney too. Must be an old FAQ entry.
I wonder what's going on with my eGift cards then. Hmmm…
@jelreyn: Really strange. I added the email address that the eGift Cards get sent from so hopefully you can search your emails for that :)
@graceyym: Finally arrived about 40 minutes ago. Took about 5 hours after ordering to arrive…Damn!
wipes brow
Feeling a bit better now.
It did arrive in the gmail spam folder as well, interestingly enough.
Thanks for the warning!
nothing in my junk yet,
I received within five minutes but the emails went to junk mail folder in Gmail. Thanks for pointing out as I was waiting too
The air purifier I wanted went up from $599 to $699 coincidentally.
I wonder if they have increased the prices to accommodate this promotion.
Oh no…I got the gift card so that I can buy the air purifier.
That awful that the price has gone up :-(
Still waiting for the gc..
Not impossible they wanted to cover it a bit, but if it's a pricejack they can't keep them up forever, it is a gift card after all.
Got mine in 5 mins.
Balance expires 36 months from the date of activation
Typical Kogan, not following Australian Consumer Law.
36mths is what the laws permit, my newly purchased coles-myer giftcard expires in 36 months
My bad thought 1 year was 24 months somehow.
But also found: https://help.kogan.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001933427?input_…
Your Kogan.com Gift Card will be valid for 36 months from the date of purchase.
Please note: Kogan.com Gift Card credit that has been applied to your Kogan.com account will expire 12 months from the date of your original gift card purchase, not the date your gift card credit was applied to your Kogan.com account.
I didn't neg you :) …. and yep it is terrible even laws allow, it should be no expiry.
@Maxxjet: Perhaps 3 years is too short, but you can't expect them to keep the records around forever.
No, up to 4 years for Coles related giftcards.
Nope. Wish GCs no longer expire
Yeah Kogan is quite good in this. Much better than other companies I dealt with
Just load one $200 from Woolies. Expire in 1 year, so disappointing.
Can this eGift Card use as partial payment?
DOES THE WHOLE VALUE OF THE KOGAN.COM GIFT CARD NEED TO USED IN ONE TRANSACTION?
No. If your cart value is less than the remaining credit balance of your Kogan.com account, your Kogan.com account balance will only be reduced by the amount as it appears in your cart.

Bought but no email still…not even a confirmation?
Bought and received confirmation, but no gift cards yet(30 minutes).
2x $100
anyone try buying another gift card with their gift card? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Yes. Can only use a credit card.
I never bought things with Kogan, do they provide tax invoice?
I bought a giftcard from here last week that never arrived. Nice to see it wasn't just me. I had to contact their support and it took around 4 days to resolve.
Anyone getting 'Error Code: 400' on checkout?
I ordered 2 x $100 this morning at 10am and got confirmation but still no gift cards. I can't find a way to contact support as the order isn't even showing up in my account.
Have you checked your spam mailbox? I found my gift card there, still took about 2-3 hours to arrive
Yeah, I check it whenever I refresh the inbox. Nothing yet.
Brought at 11:30 am… still waiting for gift card so that I can place my Kogan order :-(
Still waiting omg
Now I'm getting:
There was an error capturing the transaction. Please try again.MERCHANT_RULES
Kogan don't want my money?
Still waiting
i went through the checkout process and there's no option to pay with gift card. does anyone experience this?
Have you applied the credit to your account? If you have, are you trying to get the Kogan First free trial?
I wasn't able to pay with giftcard because the Kogan First trial was in my cart.. Lucky I needed to buy some sim cards anyway and bought the sim cards with the Kogan First trial and without using giftcard. Then I was able to buy my other things and apply my giftcard balance and free shipping.
Does the gift card only show up as a payment option at checkout after you have purchased them?
And it seems to stop you from purchasing more than 5 together, but will let you add more than one set of 5.
Is there a limit to how many gift cards can be used for one transaction?
Still no gift card after ordering at 1pm EST yesterday. NSW.
Still waiting, VIC
Same, I emailed support.
So far still no reply.
Same here, no reply from Support. Now I don't know if I can have my order arrive before Xmas
Ok, finally received my gift cards after around 15hrs from a vcdelivery email address and it went to my spam.
It was a blessing in disguise though as Kogan must've noticed that I had held the items in my shopping cart for so long and had not gone through with the purchase so sent me a discount code.
@thesniper: can you provide the full email for the vcdelivery address?, want to add it to my work safe list to ensure it comes through, thanks!
still waiting, ordered 11am yesterday
Ordered yesterday WA time 3pm. Still hasn't received GC
Still waiting
Ordered 6pm yesterday, contacted them today with order number around 10am, received the GC around 1pm.
confirming th gift cards get sent to the email address entered on the product page and not the billing address?, purchased mine about 30 mins ago and havnt received anything, just email receipt to my billing address email
check your spam email guys, I found my gift card email for gmail there
Purchased 10am on Wednesday. Sent in a ticket at through the help centre on Thurs 9:30am and received a reply at 2:45pm and received giftcards in spam at 3:24pm (gmail).
Did any of you buy them with a Kogan card? Did you notice your available point credit increase on purchase of these cards?
I noticed that, with my Kogan card linked to my kogan.com shopping account, my credit for shopping is immediately available. I have only spent a small amount, but it looks like every point is worth $0.01 on Kogan (normally 1 point earned per dollar, 2 points per dollar spent at Kogan.com). Is that correct? Because that's not bad at all - a 1% earn rate. My Citibank credit card points are only worth about half a cent when converted to Flybuys, or less than that when converted to gift cards.
I can't see the transaction on my credit card. Can I assume it didn't go through or does it take awhile?
I've got the same issue. Ordered on the 18th and only received email with tax invoice. Raised a ticket and is still waiting. Logged into view my kogan credit card history and can't even see the charges.
Wondering if they cancelled my order. Their support is a joke!
update: contacted cc support, they said kogan reversed my purchase. Even more pathetic as they didn't even bother to contact me to provide an explanation.
I brought $600 worth of voucher to buy a phone off their site. But now I'm just going to wait for my $500 credit use it and cancel the kogan cc.
Been 24 hours since my order (Thursday 2:30pm), send an email to support this morning, so far no email and no response….
Should I be worried
wouldn't be worried but is pathetic taking so long, check spam folder
Nope, nothing
I'm trying to find support email, where did you send your inquiry to? I've ordered mine last night 11pm and no email so far. Been checking junk/spam folder as well.
Still no call/email as well.
Can you use more than one gift card at a time?
And can it be used for Kogan mobile plans?
E.g: buy the XL Kogan mobile plan using three $100 gift cards.
Thanks
