shopback sent out an email the other day that was supposed to only go to new customers claiming they could get $2 bonus cashback with a $2 spend on amazon gift cards.
being the (apparently) honourable people they (sometimes) are, they've decided to open this promotion up to everyone.

seems to be targeted - the deal may be only available to those on the shopback mailing list - check your emails!

capped at 7500 redemptions (still >500 left as of the 13th at 1pm aest, thanks @trixieb)

On Sunday, we sent you an email promoting a free $2 Amazon Gift Card in error, meant only for new ShopBack Gift Cards customers.

We're sorry for the confusion, and to make up for this we'd still like to honour the promotion for you.
Simply click here to opt into the challenge, then spend at least $2 on Amazon Gift Cards by Sunday 17th September 2023 11.59pm AEST to score $2 bonus Cashback. First in best dressed - this is limited to the first 7,500 redemptions.

Cheers
Team ShopBack

my bonus cashback tracked about twenty minutes after buying the gift card.

      i normally lose in the race to post these email type things, so i'll definitely take this one!

  • Hiphopopotamus on 12/09/2023 - 19:13

    Got it.

    I saw that first email, didn't think anything of it since it clearly stated it was for new customers only. I'm kind of surprised they bothered doing this.

    The backhanded comments in the description are a little unnecessary, did you have a bad experience with them lately?

    • lachlantula on 12/09/2023 - 19:15

      i haven't personally, but shopback posts on here as of late have attracted a slew of negative comments from people who have had poor experiences. exhibit a, b, c

      of course, these things not tracking may be down to the retailers (especially bws) or user error, but shopback being apparently very slow to reply to support requests is concerning. that is, of course, until people complain on this public forum in front of the sb reps and everyone else.

      • Hiphopopotamus on 12/09/2023 - 19:40

        Fair enough. My experience with their CS has been pretty standard.

  • Neoika on 12/09/2023 - 19:13

    4c standard cashback that makes it back to 2%.

      amended post. this may be targeted to only those who are on the shopback newsletter. check your emails if you are :) i suspect my personal link may have been clicked too many times or something.

        I am on the ShopBack mailing list and I haven’t got anything in my email

        • lachlantula on 12/09/2023 - 19:28

          hmm.. the plot thickens. did you happen to receive an email on sunday about this bonus for new customers?

  • rehan770 on 12/09/2023 - 19:18

    • lachlantula on 12/09/2023 - 19:31

      nws, sorry for the confusion there!

  • lachlantula on 12/09/2023 - 19:19

    updated post to reflect this deal possibly being targeted to those who are on the mailing list only. can anyone who isn't confirm whether this challenge pops up under 'earn more'?

    • AsukaST on 12/09/2023 - 19:21

      Can't find it anywhere.

      • lachlantula on 12/09/2023 - 19:23

        thank you, will mark post as targeted :)

    • No on 12/09/2023 - 19:58

      I got the email but nothing under earn more. If I click the link in the email it just opens the shopback app to the main screen.

  • williamfslee on 12/09/2023 - 19:20

    Can use cashback to pay?

    • lachlantula on 12/09/2023 - 19:32

      how odd. did you happen to receive the aforementioned $2 bonus for new customers email on sunday?

      • chrisie on 12/09/2023 - 19:37

        Yes clicked on the link in email & tried to buy & that's the message I received

      • del preston on 12/09/2023 - 20:15

        Same.

    They worded the email's title in such a way I was sure it was a scam email at first.

  • asc on 12/09/2023 - 19:56

    Does this track instantly?

    • lachlantula on 12/09/2023 - 19:58

      i had to wait 20 minutes for the bonus to track.

    There's a chance that the rewards are all claimed and you get nothing lol

    • lachlantula on 12/09/2023 - 20:11

      if you're too slow to join the challenge, yea, i suppose?

      • bcYield on 12/09/2023 - 20:21

        Unlike CR, "start the challenge" won't secure the spot. Imagine OOS when you are filling in your details. That happened to my previous $2. I just made a ticket and see if they will manually add it. Took a few minutes for Q&A with the chatbot lol

  • fkwong on 12/09/2023 - 20:07

    Got it too. Thanks SB.

    Does that mean the work experience kid made a ($2 x 7500) $15,000 mistake!?!?

  • del preston on 12/09/2023 - 20:17

    Received the original deal email and am on the mailing list. Just tried to access the deal now that it’s apparently open to everyone who received the original email, and when I go to purchase it states “This deal isn’t available to you…” 🤷

    • moonbeam on 12/09/2023 - 20:21
      +2

      I found the same thing – it appears the original deal remains restricted to first time buyers. If you received a new email today, click the new link within to opt into the challenge.

      • del preston on 12/09/2023 - 21:07

        Ah gotcha! I didn’t see the new email today - cheers 👍😊

    Can we pay using Shopback cashback credit and still be eligible to get $2 , I got the email?

    • Stone Monkey on 12/09/2023 - 21:23

      Yes, that’s what I did and the $2 bonus has been confirmed. More than 3800 bonuses have been claimed when I received my confirmation.

    • chrisie on 12/09/2023 - 21:24

      Yes

  • OzBoganYeah on 12/09/2023 - 21:31

    How do you become targeted? Buy a lot of gift cards?

    • lachlantula on 12/09/2023 - 21:32
      +1

      if you're on the shopback mailing list you should receive an email about this promo. if you unsubscribed from their emails, you won't, hence targeted.

  • GimmeCashback on 12/09/2023 - 21:33

    Got this one, thanks for the accountability on the miscommunication with the earlier email, SB :)

  • wdw on 12/09/2023 - 22:41

    Weird I get all emails but not this one. Unlucky!

  • tunzafun001 on 12/09/2023 - 23:11

  • Graffin on 12/09/2023 - 23:41

    I got the original email but it clearly said it was just for those who have never purchased a gift card through Shopback before so I just ignored it.

    I didn't expect them to extend the offer to me, so getting the follow up email was a pleasant surprise and I jumped on it immediately.

    Thanks Shopback!

  • ubor on 13/09/2023 - 00:20

    There was no $2 amazon gift card. Minimum $10. Did I get it wrong?

    • Hiphopopotamus on 13/09/2023 - 00:35

      If you don't see $2 cards after tapping 'shop now' try manual searching for Amazon, I still see $2 cards.

      • ubor on 13/09/2023 - 10:06

        Thanks! Manual searching for Amazon found the $2 gift card.

  • rehan770 on 13/09/2023 - 01:21

    Not everyone has got the email I suppose!!!

  • pixxelpusher on 13/09/2023 - 01:40

    Didn't get it. Odd as I'm signed up to emails, but I rarely ever get emails from them.

  • jwl81124 on 13/09/2023 - 02:47

    4c cashback tracked.

  • wondering on 13/09/2023 - 06:34

    Don’t see it. OOS ? 😩

    • lachlantula on 13/09/2023 - 10:32

      still available

      • me1stt on 13/09/2023 - 10:47

        Do you still have the link?

        • lachlantula on 13/09/2023 - 10:54

          check your emails, the link seems to be unique for each user. if you didn't get one yesterday you may have missed out but i wouldn't be able to tell you why.

  • bdl on 13/09/2023 - 13:37

    I never seem to get any marketing emails from SB - do you have to opt into them?

    • lachlantula on 13/09/2023 - 13:49

      maybe check you're opted in here

      • bdl on 13/09/2023 - 17:11

        thanks - I was for email, but not for SMS - have toggle email notification on and off to see if that helps in future
