Just noticed this gift card on the new Shopback gift card portal.

The Online Card can be used at a number of merchants including ebay! So this deal is basically 5% off ebay gift cards!

ShopBack appears to be selling $50,$100 and $200 Online gift cards and you can order multiple cards. Note - you have to go through the Shopback app to get the 5% cashback. I was able to purchase a gift card using my available cashback. I received the email to redeem the ebay gift card within two minutes. Cashback was instant.

If you try and buy the card online, the card will show as out of stock. You need to purchase through the Shopback app.

How to redeem ebay gift card
1. Find your Gift Card in the Deal Purchase section of your account
2. Click on See Voucher
3. Select the retailer and denomination
4. Input your email and your gift card will be sent to your inbox.

Mod Update 22/10: eBay has been removed as a participating retailer from TCN: The Online Card.
Mod Update 23/10: eBay has re-added as a participating retailer

    Thanks. There seems to be a deal patrol here

    • chunfat on 25/10/2020 - 10:07

      They automatically cancelled my order at 8:00am sharp today. And therefore invalidating my shopback and cashrewards eligibility. Of advertised amount.

      Do not buy from them as they will obtain all you name, address, phone number, and credit card details!

  • SydBoy on 19/10/2020 - 15:21

    how do you get ebay GC? where on the APP you go to see the new portal for gift card?

    • ATangk on 19/10/2020 - 15:42

      Buy the TCN card, then in your order history on the app, you can keep clicking through to redeem. Select ebay, select $ amount, enter ph no. name, email and itll auto go through.

      That said, I'm still waiting for the card to come. Cashback isnt instant either…

      E: Went into junk inbox, was actually almost instantaneous.

          Oh and the gift card portal is on the home page in a red banner. If it moves though, I dont know where else to access it because I cant find it.

      Data is already breached. If I stopped using them doesn't mean the data will be unbreached
      Besides other than email they have jack all details on me anyway.

      • Ciderfizz44 on 19/10/2020 - 15:59

        They have also shared your account password as I learnt with some targeted phishing emails, does that bother you?

      Not me. I’m shutting my account down once I get my cash back. We have alternatives and I am not one to let companies off for data breeches. If we reward companies with our business even after a data breech, it has the risk of other businesses not taking customer private data seriously as there isn’t any negative implications.

        It's breach

        And goodness me I doubt you are remotely aware of the data on you held by peoples with both good and bad intentions. Plenty of breaches haven't been detected, plenty more haven't been disclosed, and plenty more will occur in the future.

        If you seriously uphold that behaviour you're espousing you better cancel your internet and telecommunications services and start living off the grid.

        Shopback (profanity) up, but no more than plenty of other companies have or will. You actually just sound like an idiot with that response.

        • Ibz on 20/10/2020 - 13:10

          As someone who works in the cyber sec space, I totally agree with them. Shopback hasn't shown they care about your security and just because they had a breach doesn't mean they'll suddenly get way better. I'd rather go with the ones which "may have" already had a breach than the ones which definitely have. In my humble opinion, your argument boils down to "yeah they're bad but everyone PROBABLY is too so whatever" which I don't agree with. No, I can tell you first hand some companies are a lot worse than others for data privacy and security, they are NOT all equal.

            +1

            @SBOB: My shopback password specifically was sent in an email back to me asking for $$ or they would release compromising material. Which is most likely BS but keep using if you don't mind your passwords being sent around.

            The email was in my spam folder & I've got nothing to gain if you think I'm fabricating this information. Personally I will not continue using SB as a bit if loose change is not worth it for me.

            • SBOB on 20/10/2020 - 10:13

              sounds like the generic scam emails using compromised account details all over the dark web.

              I very much doubt the shopback passwords were stored in plain text, but possibly not salted or encrypted enough to prevent brute force attempts at decryption, especially for simple or repeatable passwords.

              Was it a complex random password or something 'simpler'?

              I'm fine if spammers want to email me with my old shopback password as it looks something like this 'P7#jIy^Qv*Z#HjZiAj8H'

    Decent deal but personally the breach has put me in the camp of not using these guys anymore. Data can't be un-breached but its more a matter of principle now.

        Oh I think the TCN site is sold out. The Shopback app has stock. :/ Shopback has its own stock whereas Cashrewards seems to rely on the TCN's site for stock.

    People seem to forget about things too quickly but let's remember these guys contacted us customers on a Friday evening with what was basically a generic letter

    Just brought $100 TCN card, tried converting to ebay voucher. Email sent for $30 ebay voucher instead of $100. There was no field to enter an amount when I redeemed. Managed to convert another 2 x $30 ebay voucher and 4th time it said i had insufficient funds.

    So now i have 3 x $30 ebay voucher and with 5% cashback I'm now down $5.

    Just lodged a ticket directly with TCN.

    Data breach, then this crap experience gotta say bye bye to Shopback once i sort this out.

      I experienced the exact same thing. Let me know how you go. I also lodged a ticket with them. I don't mind purchasing another $100 and then get 1x50 and 2x30 once they combine the values.

      We should get a code for the TCN card but I don't seem to see it anywhere. I reckon if we have the codes we can use another card for the remaining balance?

        • TheTaxMan on 20/10/2020 - 06:40

          Was told it was a digital MasterCard that was issued and then used that to swap for eBay gift card. I asked if I can get the gift card number. Shopback should have provided that.

          • duckieboy on 20/10/2020 - 06:43

            @TheTaxMan: Did TCN tell you this? Do you need to contact Shopback now?

            • TheTaxMan on 20/10/2020 - 08:53

              @duckieboy: This was the response:

              Thanks for your email.

              Our system indicates that previously, you processed a swap for a digital Mastercard to use at E-bay. Once a digital Mastercard is issued, we’re unable to cancel and reissue a gift card code.

              You do have 3 years to use the $10 balance on your digital Mastercard in-store at all participating retailers that accept Mastercards.

              If we can help you with any other queries, please let me know.

              I asked if they can provide the code or whatever number I need. They have yet to respond.
              Could possibly ask shopback as well but I'm trying TCN first, they should know what they've issued.

              • duckieboy on 20/10/2020 - 09:15

                @TheTaxMan: Couldn't you then use the MasterCard directly in eBay without converting to gift cards first?

                • TheTaxMan on 20/10/2020 - 13:32

                  @AncientWisdom: I don't have the MasterCard details. It just shows I have a voucher on the Shopback app. There's also no email sent from Shopback about my purchase so it's solely the app.

                +1

                @TheTaxMan: Update, Shopback got back to me and said there's nothing they can do since ebay only do $30, $50 and $100 denomination and since I did 3 x $30 I essentially I can't redeem my remaining $10.

                So I told them their system didn't have a field for me to enter in amount so I assumed it was going to convert $100 TCN to ebay voucher and for them to reimbursed me the $10.

                Did you remember of there was an amount field? I only recall seeing first name, last name, mobile and email fields.

                Let's see what they come back with.

                Anyone planning to buy TCN voucher please beware.

                  @duckieboy: I think there was a drop down list but I didn't notice it. If you click to convert without selecting anything, it goes with the $30 by default.

                  It's bad design and I think it's the TCN website's fault. They haven't responded back about giving me that MasterCard code

                  • duckieboy on 20/10/2020 - 22:09

      • Meovel on 20/10/2020 - 11:52

        If there's option to redeem for $50 why are they sending $303 instead of $502 for $100 value?

        • duckieboy on 20/10/2020 - 13:03

          1 x $100 would make sense since that's what I brought.

  • duckieboy on 20/10/2020 - 20:35

    • duckieboy on 20/10/2020 - 22:22

      Update: for ebay voucher make sure you select the drop down box and select the full amount of your voucher otherwise it defaults to $30.

      So depending on the amount you buy you might not be able to redeem your remaining balance.
