By buying GC from a store which you were already going to be making a purchase from anyway. (like Coles/JbHifi/Just jeans/addidas etc.)
If you aint looking to actually buy from that shop then it is not the best value (even if it's 10% discounted)
And sadly they dont seem to have the standard eftpos card (which would have had been the best value IMO)
Which card is accepted at Coles?
It's definitely better value than converting to flybuys dollar directlyNone of the ones in this deal but you can convert flybuys points to coles dollars pretty sure. I get mine instantly converted at Coles at checkout (because of being coles CC holder)
no standard eftpos cards ?
The Pub & Bar Gift Card is an eftpos card but says:
The Pub & Bar Gift Card can be used at pubs and bars* that accepts eftpos.
There's no explanation on what the * means though.
Edit: found some info:
The Official Partner of Australian Hotels Association. Use this gift card at thousands of pubs, bars, venues and hotels that accept eftpos around Australia.
Are you sure Regarding Pub & Bar Gift card can be used at any eftpos ..
Flybuys give us digital card ?
No, not any eftpos. Pubs and bars in the AHA. They send physical cards.
Pubs and bars in the AHA.
I wouldn’t phrase it that way.
The TCN Pub & Bar gift card can be redeemed at merchants that use a specific Merchant Category Code. It says this much in the TCN category-restricted gift card terms and conditions:
The Pub & Bar Gift Card works on the eftpos payment platform for pubs or bars that have a merchant category code that corresponds to this industry type. Gift cards are still subject to individual merchant acceptance and in accordance with these Terms & Conditions and any applicable law and subject always to the individual trading terms of each participating merchant.
Based off the language being used in the terms, the only permitted MCC is 5813, which is for Bars, Cocktail Lounges, Discotheques, Nightclubs, and Taverns— Drinking Places (Alcoholic Beverages). I’m not 100% sure whether you can also use a Pub & Bar gift card at a merchant assigned an MCC of 5812, which is for Eating Places, Restaurant, but I’m sure someone can point this out.
I think the AHA is mentioned, because I’m fairly sure they’re the peak industry body for pubs and bars across Australia. I wonder whether they help (or helped) to fund this gift card…
Thanks OP. Got 3x100 The Gift cards for 54,000 points. Going to swap them for eBay cards.
Same I’m doing that too
But isn't the gift card can be used for ebay too right? Why still need to swap them for ebay card??
You swap the physical card for an e-gift voucher for online usage - more info at the TCN web-site - https://thecardnetwork.com.au/
Which one do you buy to get a physical eBay card to then swap?
I don't see any that have "eBay" on them on the flybuys site. CheersThey are not available anymore.
Still outraged there isn't a "They/Them" gift card.
You can convert the “Gift” card to an “it” one quire easily.
What's "them" card?
Something people have made up.
Buy his and her to become they
His+His or Her+Her are also acceptable nowadays.
seems limit is 9 cards per swap or per account? Cannot get more
You just need to add it again to your cart.
Is it a physical gift card or digital?
I tried $100 gift card, haven't received anything.
Physical
Damn. Wish it was digital delivery
Any shipping notification or idea of delivery timeframe? 3 weeks would be pretty lame.
Apparently with up to 3 weeks delivery
Just remember if you get a heap of these, using them with the good guys, you must go IN STORE. Online will only take 2 cards at a time.
Thanks, I finally used my 10k points
Does anyone happen to know if JB has a limit of how many gift cards you can use at once in store?
The OzBargain consensus is that there is no limit in-store with the number of TCN or Ultimate gift cards you can redeem.
You'll see in the link above that an OzBargainer once redeemed 81 TCN/Ultimate gift cards in one in-store transaction at JB Hi-Fi.
If you are going to redeem more than a handful of TCN or Ultimate gift cards in one in-store transaction, do the staff a favour and go to the store at a quieter time and "prepare" the gift cards before you get there (e.g. remove from any packaging, scratch to reveal PIN). Redeeming a large number of gift cards in one transaction will effectively tie up a checkout and a staff member, and I'm worried that if too many people are not as considerate, it will give JB Hi-Fi an excuse to enforce a limit again; last time JB Hi-Fi placed a limit on TCN gift card redemptions, you could only redeem $500 per transaction.
I just redeemed 5 (online) with 0 issues.
@%@! the good guys.
How do you guys the left over (small) balance, e.g for restaurant gift card
Use the rest in a restaurant where splitting bills is acceptable.
TCN card with ebay on it out of stock.
I've redeemed one as a gift and the recepient will definitely use it at JB HiFi online as they can't get to a store. Can the physical card be used online at checkout on the JB HiFi website? Thankyou.
Has anyone received the cards ? I haven’t received my $300 eBay gift cards
Received mine via registered post a few days ago
I received one card out of two today, in a normal non registered envelope. I was very surprised that they would send a gift card in normal mail.
My order was confirmed on the 12th of August and both cards were received (with different denominators) on the 30th of August.
Order placed on 20 August still nothing received yet. Not even any tracking available. I am strongly doubting Flybuys Now
I received mine on Friday 2nd sept
Whats the best value for flybuys. Have about 120k
