Coles $50 gift cards are out of stock as of 7:45pm AEST.

Hi everyone, and Happy Mother's Day to all the mums. Here’s the perfect last-minute gift and another nice bonus for all our members to enjoy today.

The $5 bonus will show as pending in your Cashrewards account immediately upon activation of the offer (no confirmation email is sent). This will be automatically approved within 7 days of any associated qualifying purchase being approved (as per the terms of the store). Please ignore the bonus estimated approval date in your account as this is simply a placeholder. Most gift card purchases are approved within 5 days of purchase.

Please read the terms below carefully - it will save a lot of questions. Ensure you activate the bonus prior to shopping. Once activated, shop as normal via the 'Shop Now' button on Cashrewards. Valid for purchases made from 9am 09/05/21 to 11:59pm 09/05/21 (AEST). Thanks for your support as always. Please stay safe, and enjoy :)

Find our gift card portal here with up to 6% cashback on gift cards. We've also just added four new cards - Splurge, Indulge, Thrill, and Coles. The cashback rate for Coles is miniscule (for now) only because we rushed to launch for this promo, however the bonus still represents a 10% saving on a $50 gift card (nothing to sneeze at). Coles & Foot Locker gift cards are for in-store redemption only (not online).

$5 Bonus Promo Terms:

  • To be eligible for the AUD $5 bonus, first activate the promotion via the main link in this post, then shop as normal via the Gift Cards Portal on Cashrewards.

  • Gift card purchases are available only via desktop or mobile browsers. They are not yet available via the Cashrewards App.
  • Bonus is eligible when making a qualifying gift card purchase of AUD $50 or more in a single transaction.
  • Bonus will be added automatically to your Cashrewards account as pending upon activation of this offer. Bonus will be approved within 7 days of any associated qualifying purchase being approved, as per the terms of the store.
  • Bonus is over and above the advertised cashback rates which still apply to the transaction.
  • Bonus is limited to one per Cashrewards account. Additional transactions do not qualify for additional bonuses.
  • Bonus is ineligible if an order is cancelled, changed, returned, rejected, or if you purchase an ineligible product.
  • Ensure you review all terms and conditions of the gift card prior to finalising your order.
  • Fraudulent activity will result in rewards being forfeited and accounts closed.

    For those that have raised this previously with concerns, I’ll pin this here for reference. Thanks again, and have a great Mother’s Day :)

    Your card details are never linked/stored on Cashrewards - once you click Shop Now, everything happens at True Rewards.

    To unlink your card from True Rewards, (1) go to payment for another gift card, (2) go to checkout - just before hitting pay you will see your card, (3) press the bin icon and it will be removed.

      I did this but got an error message 'Too many total linked card attempts' and I am now unable to buy gift cards :(

      I do do this often because I don't always use the same card, but it is annoying because I don't see the point, and now it looks like I am going to miss out on this deal and future ones until this is fixed.

          I upvoted because of the extra 10% here, just saying addition of Coles on its own isn't worth celebrating. Post title sounds better than it is, only after linking through do you find out it is 0.1%

            @alex-t: The OP does make it pretty clear that the 0.1% cashback on Coles is an initial/temporary rate, that was brought online quickly to allow us to get the 10% offer for today. I'm pleased.

    When purchasing the coles gift card, it needs to be linked to a credit card. Can I link the same credit card details on 2 accounts? - me and my partner account. Just wondering am i still eligible for the cashback?

      I did last time because didn't want to expose two credit cards just in case, both acocunts show the bonus.

      From my experience it works with cashrewards, you can use the same credit card on two accounts and the cashback will work on both.

      For shopback you cannot use the same credit card on two accounts (it tells you the card is already used on another account).

      I had the same problem as well, as my card provider only shows EGIFT*. I just ended up using a different card.

        Also on the Shopback GC portal, you can use the Coles Mastercard GC and it works without verification. But you cannot be certain you will get the bonus and they seem to make checking devilishly complicated. CR has been clearly superior on this.

      @rockyraccoon - Hi, and thanks for the feedback. Not sure why you've not received the authentication number, however it's untrue that you need to have made purchases from True Rewards prior. I've just made a test purchase with a Visa card I've not used before on TrueRewards and received the code instantly. Sorry I can't offer more than this, except to ask you to please try a different card, and do let us know how you go. I will also be raising this with True Rewards to see if they know what the reason could be. It's unfortunate this promo fell on a Sunday else I'd have an answer for you right away. Thank you.

        I tried to use a prepaid MasterCard recently and only I could see the transaction but not the reference number to put in on True Rewards. I ended up using my regular cc instead. So maybe some banks have a similar issue? I'm not too sure.

        Isnt it interesting, this is an issue for some, and the community sheep vote this down as seeing this as a criticism of the free money.

        Its great if it works but it doesnt for everyone. As others also say.

        So at least alerting to some - that this is an issue, rather than those who might have the issue all coming here and wondering what they did wrong.

        This number still doesnt show after a number of hours.

        Hi TA, I wish you/CR can also provide the feedback to True Rewards.

        During the last deal my partner used his Westpac card to purchase Choice gift card and his card was locked afterwards. When I tried to use my ING card to make the purchase I was able to verify my card successfully but got the incorrect CCV number after clicking on pay button. Didn't receive any confirmation/gift card from True Rewards, but $30 showed as pending on my transaction list. I was worried and rang my bank who decided to cancel my card and I still haven't received my new card. Next morning I checked my account and found $30 pending charge disappeared overnight. At least J didn't need to contact True Rewards.

        Today, my partner rang Westpac to unlock his card before purchased a $50 gift card. No problem at all. However when I tried to use his card to pay for my giftcard. Same thing happened. No confirmation/giftcard received but $50 pending on transaction list. Then I tried with another my card, can't pay either and then my bank advised me that my card was temporarily blocked.

        So not talking about time wasted or failed to purchase giftcard. Happened twice to us, I wonder why banks are so worried about True Rewards. I am very concerned.

      You realise that in addition to the normal cashback you would normally earn, you also get an additional $5 bonus through CRs, making it more than just $5?

        I could be wrong, but I can only assume that True Rewards has possibly flagged the linking of multiple cards to protect themselves against fraud?

          Hi TA, Yeah probably but this was several weeks ago. They shouldn't block for that long time. They are using multi factor authentication anyway. Also as mentioned by others it should put in t&c about not using prepaid cards.

      In the past, I have successfully used Westpac Mastercard and ING and MyState debit card.

        Also just used a Commonwealth Bank debit card, as I had some money in there.

        I failed on my ING card. Westpac card worked on last deal but Westpsc locked the card after transaction went through. This time Westpac card worked for my partner, but not fof me although received no card but $50 pending although received i error message stating incorrect CCV number.

          Macquarie Platinum Debit locked my card after the last one too…

      Me too. I originally had my 28 Degrees linked, then unlinked it to try a prepaid card. Bad idea, it doesn't show the code even though the transaction appears.

      Since then I've had no success trying to relink the 28 Degrees nor a bank debit Mastercard. The $1 transaction doesn't show up on either account.

      This'll be the third promo I'll miss.
