      It can be delayed

      • keepsmiling on 23/09/2023 - 02:09

        Thanks, does it increase the validity? And any info on how long the activation can be delayed

        • Neoika on 23/09/2023 - 05:40

          No, all Ultimate eGCs sold this month expires 9/28. If you activate it next month, it is still with the same date, not 10/28. I have done it for a similar eGC by Blackhawk before.

  • Mani88 on 23/09/2023 - 01:48

    Are you allowed to make multiple separate transactions on one card, or does it have to be all in one transaction?

    • keepsmiling on 23/09/2023 - 02:11

      Multiple transactions can be done

  • Romiyo on 23/09/2023 - 01:52

    Can anyone advice if you can use these gift cards for JB Hifi online purchase? Most of the comments talk about pick up in store using apple pay split payment.
    i.e. I plan to buy 4x $500 and 1x$50 for an online purchase of an iphone 15 pro 215gb(and then collect or ship I havent decided yet)

    • Mani88 on 23/09/2023 - 01:55

      No you cant use this gift cards online, you would have to go instore to use them.

    • keepsmiling on 23/09/2023 - 02:10

      If online, only one card can be used and if in store, multiple cards can be used

  • NoApostrophePlurals on 23/09/2023 - 05:14

    Just tried to use a 500 ultimate gift card on JB Hi-fi website to convert into JB Hi-fi gift cards like others have done. I put in the CC number on UGC, out in the expiry and used my name, but card declined. Did I do something wrong? I was in incognito mode on my phone.

    • Mistredo on 23/09/2023 - 05:19

      Most probably. I faced cancellations but transactions always went through.

    • quanttrader on 23/09/2023 - 11:06

      It's their fraud detection algo. It seems really sensitive lately (happens every time I try to use 10$ sign up voucher with a new fake email/cheap second sim number after orignal phone # can't sign up for perks more than 2x). Just go into the store and you'l be able to use the cards to purchase JB stuff (also if you show them the bar code for the 10$ sign up on a new email, itll work rather than get blocked by the fraud algo, if you want to save a tiny more)

  • k1vnwng on 23/09/2023 - 07:11

    Update: Can anyone else who has trouble adding Ultimate or Activ (Blackhawk cards, like myself) - update your iOS to the newer 17.0.1 or 16.7 and try adding the card again. See if it works. For the first time, I’m able to add an additional card in over 1-2 weeks.

    I wanted to confirm it’s not a fluke.

    • CabraLB on 23/09/2023 - 18:18

      Updated my iPhone 11 to 17.0.1 and attempted to add my ultimate cards and got 'invalid card' error again. Tried Samsung wallet on my work phone and works flawlessly. There appears to be a time restriction on certain wallets for some reason?

    • princeofpoverty on 25/09/2023 - 12:21

      Same, I have also updated to the newer IOS and the Apple Wallet is showing the "Invalid Card Error", don't know when it will be fixed.

      • k1vnwng on 25/09/2023 - 12:32

        I see. It worked differently for me. Newer card seems to add. Older cards is still unable.

    • snuke on 25/09/2023 - 12:40

      Updated to iOS 17.1 last night, re-added Ultimate Home cards with no issues.

  • slx on 23/09/2023 - 08:16

    Transaction failed on the 1st try, immediately received a text from my bank saying a transaction was blocked due to suspicious activity and asking me to confirm it was me, confirmed over text and card was unblocked, tried again and transaction went through, GCs received within 10 mins. I imagine GC purchases are considered high risk and it gets blocked easily by banks, so check with your bank as well if transaction failed as not all banks send out text notifications. YMMV.

  • Mickimoo on 23/09/2023 - 09:12

    After many "Transaction failed. Contact customer support." errors (probably like 15!) I've found a solution that has worked for me.
    TLDR; giftcards support and IT team were useless for me, and two different banks that I tried were not the issue. They probably blocked my details.
    After changing these details to a relatives (phone, address, name, email (my 2nd one)), I was able to successfully put the payment through on a Westpac Mastercard.
    Invoiced immediatly, received giftcards 10 minutes later.

    • hybridex on 26/09/2023 - 16:44

      Changing the details worked for me, thanks for this tip

    • Bargainhunter83 on 23/09/2023 - 10:11

      Update - Only happened for google wallet. But the cards worked for apple wallet. No pin required

  • Enzalicious on 23/09/2023 - 09:49

    Might stick to the physical cards in future.

    I can’t add them all to my wallet, and the ones that I have been able to add get declined when I try to use them.

    • V003 on 23/09/2023 - 16:40

      Its probably because of expiry date, you need to go to https://myprepaidcentre.com.au/ and put your gift number info and get the expiry date, from there. this website where you would check your balance. I had the same issue last month and that's how i fixed it.

      edit. nvm this is egift card so expiry date should be there. i was talking bout physical card

      • Enzalicious on 23/09/2023 - 16:59

        Yeah I got one working but can’t add the rest to my wallet. According to support you can only add a certain amount to the wallet in 24 hours. I’ll try again tomorrow. The one I did have in my wallet worked after a few hours.

  • Tkj02 on 23/09/2023 - 10:02

    How do we add the Him Card to UberEats?

    • WookieMonster on 23/09/2023 - 10:15
      +2

      If you look at the Ultimate Him gift card webpage on the Ultimate gift card website, it says Uber Eats and Uber are exchange-only participating retailers.

      In other words, you need to go to the Ultimate gift card exchange portal (and the link to this can be found on the Ultimate gift card website), enter your Ultimate Him gift card's details on the login page, then choose Uber Eats (or Uber). You will need to provide an email address during the exchange process, then you will have an Uber Eats (or Uber) gift card emailed to you that you can add to your Uber / Uber Eats wallet.

      • drhip on 23/09/2023 - 10:18

        Thanks mate. Why dont they just add Uber Eats gift card on this promotion…

      Then went to good guys and put an order for a 15 pro max (2200) IN STORE, and will get a $100 store credit back.

      Exactly how did you handle the transaction? Were the gift cards added to your phones wallet and used like a CC, were they converted to Good Guys Gift Cards on the ultimate website etc?

    • constantinechou on 23/09/2023 - 16:26

      wow how did you get the $100 store credit back from TGG? I placed my pro max order with JB, got absolutely nothing.

    • Thranrond on 24/09/2023 - 01:58

      Can you explain how you saved $475 by doing this?
      I only calculate $430 ($330 gift card discount and $100 store cash)

      • laumei on 24/09/2023 - 13:05

        5x $500 gift card = $2500 minus 15% discount equals $375 saved in addition to the $100 store cashback which is a final savings of $475

  • malt32 on 23/09/2023 - 11:10

    Not sure of this is already answered in the thread but when adding your ultimate gift card to the apple wallet and tapping it in store. Do you need to enter in the pin or is it just a tap?
    Also has anyone tried buying jb hi gift cards in store or does everyone do it online?

    • quanttrader on 23/09/2023 - 11:12

      Just tap, no pin, at least once their loaded to your iphone wallet - i tapped multiple in one txn yesterday, no problems. Unsuccessful buying jb giftcard online w giftcard

      • malt32 on 23/09/2023 - 14:34

      • Anthony8888 on 23/09/2023 - 15:26

        Can we buy Apple gift card at JB? Also can they allow to use two ultimate gift card to buy JB gift card or Apple gift card?

          you can buy Apple GC/JB GC at JB using ultimate GC. You can have as many transaction you like (even though their policy does not limit how many Apple gift cards you can buy, some store managers might still restrict the number, but most doesn't), just ask them to split the payment. You just need to add the Ultimate GC to your Applewallet/Googlewallet first. What's not allow is to use a JBHIFI GC that was purchased with an Ultimate GC, to buy an Apple GC.

  • beaniemeanie on 23/09/2023 - 11:28

    Finally managed to make payment with my Amex card on the 4th day. Called Amex on the 2nd day and they said Amex is not blocking the transaction, so not their problem. Then called GC customer support and they said it's Amex not sending the code, but they will ask IT to look into it, then they asked the first 6 digits and last 4 digits of my card number. Took them 24 hours to send me an email reply, and they told me to try again after 24 hours. So I tried 24hrs since my last attempt, and it finally worked!

  • ladis on 23/09/2023 - 11:46

          There is an easier way if you use the cards to tap. You can check the payment history of the gift cards in the apple wallet -it'll show you the history of transactoins when you select the card. No need to register the giftcards to check balances then.

  • ellave on 23/09/2023 - 15:40

    Took me a few attempts but managed to get 2 transactions through, first was my NAB credit card that took about 4 attempts before working from my phone. Then tried again a further 5 times using the same card and my Amex and wouldn't go through. Then switched to my NAB debit card and after 2 attempts it worked. Cards were delieverd to my email pretty quick and no issues added them all to google pay. Headed off to GoodGuys and used them to purchase a new Miele oven. Thanks OP

    • huntabargain on 23/09/2023 - 16:37

    Anyway, I called the auto line again and noticed that the expiry date the system read me (Sept 2026) was different to the expiry I got on my email (Sept 2028). Anyone else noticed this?

    • Neoika on 23/09/2023 - 15:55

      Sep 2026 is probably the real card expiry date as it is three years later.

      Sep 2028 is the date that you should enter as part of the VISA card info.

  • ultramic on 23/09/2023 - 16:06

    Just confirming I added 7 cards to Google pay and Samsung pay (ie 14 in total) and all worked using tap and pay in the shop. Despite google pay showing an activation error, it still worked. I also managed to load 7 on apple pay but never got the chance to test it because the other 2 wallets worked.

  • pav1 on 23/09/2023 - 16:22

    There is a $1000 per person per day policy so I had to drag a friend along to get enough for an iPhone.

    The process is really straightforward after you’ve added the Ultimate cards in your Apple wallet.

    No need for pin even with $500 transactions. Just tap and go.

    The biggest issue for me was finding a JB with enough Apple giftcards. The first store I went to only have $30 Giftcards left.

    PS: I tried Officeworks first and their system recognised that I was trying to use a giftcard and failed… but no issues at JB

    Hi All,

    Sorry to ask but I've managed to get 4 x $500 cards although can only add two to Apple Wallet as others have mentioned.

    Is there a work around anyone has, I've only got an iPad and iPhone.

    Im trying to use these $2000 worth for a new iPhone at JB.

    I checked out the FAQ thread but couldn't find any answers sorry.

    Appreciate any help for an ozbargain noob.

      Just did this today but with Google wallet. Added $2050 worth over 5 cards, bought iPhone at JB and it worked well.

      Also sign up for JB perks beforehand and get a $10 welcome coupon, it worked also.

      If Apple wallet doesn't let you add more than 2 cards, you might need to add 2, use them then delete and add the next two in store. A bit of a hassle but that should work

    I have an old crappy phone with no NFC, so I can't pay with Google wallet or Apple Pay. Is it possible for me to use this to buy the new iphone at jb hifi?

      There are 18 pages of comments explaining how to do it. You need to do your homework and read the instruction and description..

        thx, already went to all 18pages, but cannot find a relevant one.
        I have not bought the ultimate GC yet., but I went to officework this afternoon. They said they only accept physical ultimate GC in store. No digital ultimate accepted for them as they change the payment system

        • huntabargain on 23/09/2023 - 21:37

          Buy 3x$500 Ultimate GC, when received by email add them to your wallet.

          To add your gift card to your mobile wallet (apple pay, google wallet or samsung pay):

          Go to the Wallet app on your mobile device
          Click on the plus icon
          Select Debit or Credit card on the next screen
          Enter your card details
          Your card has now been added to your mobile wallet.

          After you add them go to officeworks and buy laptop, don't tell I want to pay with UGC, as this card classified as prepaid Visa credit card. So in effect you will have to tap your phone 3 times ($500 each).

            @huntabargain: thank you

          • SpotOn on 23/09/2023 - 21:59

            @huntabargain: So UGC can’t be used directly to buy an iPhone from jbhifi? Why do people need to add them to their wallets etc?

            Sorry if this has been answered but I couldn’t find it. Thank you

              @SpotOn: The cards you buy here are digital cards, so the only way to spend them in store is to first add them to your digital wallet, then use you phone to make payment.

      Welcome to Australia! Where are you from originally?

  • dollarandcents on 23/09/2023 - 21:55

    I've managed to grab some gcs to buy an iPhone 15 like many here. I'm genuinely curious why people want to go through the hassle of converting to Apple gcs to buy directly from Apple vs JBHiFi. Is there any advantage in doing the former? From what I understand, even if you buy from JB and your device craps out, you need to go to the Apple store to get it looked? What am I missing?

      I can only assume availability.

      No questions asked return policy at Apple… don't like the blue? return it. Don't think JB HiFi have that.

        JB def do not have this. They make you sign to say you are being given the colour/memory phone of your choosing and tell you it cannot be changed for any reason other than it not working.
