    Beware! If you buy variable load GC's you can't split them over multiple transactions and still get the rewards points. The problem with this is, some stores (like my local) have a policy where they will not process more than $1000 of GC's in a single transaction.

    In this case if you want to get more than $1000 of variable load GC's you have to make a single transaction each day over multiple days to get the rewards points.

        Or so I hear…

    • zn7726 on 28/11/2023 - 09:57

      If they don't process more than $1000 worth of GC's in a single transaction, can you purchase more GC in a separate transaction in the same store or even do it in another store? Your comments sound like you can only get EDR points in one transaction per day. Can you please clarify? I am going to buy around $2000 GCs for an iPhone. Thanks.

      • Dogsrule on 28/11/2023 - 13:42
        +1

        I contacted the rewards support team and they said that you can do one transaction of variable load GC's per day, so you could do $1k one day, $1k the next day and so on. If you did one transaction at one store then go to another store on the same day and make another transaction, you wouldn't get the 20x points on the second transaction because it was on the same day.

        Don't ask me why they do this, it seems ridiculous to me.

        • zn7726 on 28/11/2023 - 17:06

          Thanks for clarifying this. Didn't know there was a restriction of one transaction per day with WWS. I have purchased GCs in multiple transactions at Coles and didn't have issues collecting rewards FB points in the past. I will check my local WWS (Crows Nest NSW) before purchasing.

            @zn7726:

            Didn't know there was a restriction of one transaction per day with WWS.

            Only for the variable load GC's, the fixed amount cards can be bought over multiple transactions on a single day and each transaction will get the 20x rewards points.

            So you can do 5x $200 GC's in one transaction, and another 5x $200 GC's in a second transaction and both will get 20x rewards points. If however you do 2x $500 variable load GC's then another 2x $500 in the same day, only the first transaction will get 20x rewards.

            I have no idea why they do this.

    • relicsinner on 28/11/2023 - 10:31

      Is that an individual store limit policy? Could I go to 2 separate stores and get $1000 each?

      • Dogsrule on 28/11/2023 - 13:46

        Yes it is an individual store policy, the rewards support team suggested I find a store that doesn't have this policy. Seems ridiculous that individual stores can make up their own rules like this.

        You can't go to 2 different stores on the same day and get 20x rewards on both transactions, only the first transaction. You can get around it by doing one transaction a day over multiple days. I know this for a fact because I did 3 transactions on the same day and didn't get any points at all for the 2nd & 3rd transactions - had to hassle the support team to get the points and they only did it begrudgingly. Note this limit only applies to variable load GC's, the fixed amount GC's can be split over multiple transactions on the same day.

    • limaecho on 29/11/2023 - 06:54

      The terms and conditions in this boost are different:

      How it works: You do not need to boost this offer. To collect 20x points on Apple Gift Cards, purchase any Qualifying Gift Cards in-store and scan your Everyday Rewards Card before completing your transaction.


      Qualifying Gift Cards: For $20, $30, $50, $100 and $200 Apple Gift Cards with a fixed value, limit of 10 cards per Everyday Rewards member (can be done across multiple transactions).

      
For $20-$500 variable Apple Gift Cards where you choose the amount to load, limit of 10 cards per day per Everyday Rewards member in a single transaction applies.


      Everyday Rewards bonus points breakdown as follows: $20 = 400, $30 = 600, $50 = 1000, $100 = 2000, $200 = 4000 Variable $20-$500 Gift Card $1 spend = 20x Everyday Reward points.

        The terms and conditions in this boost are different:

        No, they describe exactly what I have been saying:

        For $20-$500 variable Apple Gift Cards where you choose the amount to load, limit of 10 cards per day per Everyday Rewards member in a single transaction applies.


        As I've been saying, you can only make one transaction of variable load GC's per day and receive 20x rewards points. The T&C's don't mention that some stores have a $1000 limit on GC purchases in a single transaction, meaning that in practice you can only buy 2x $500 variable load GC's per day if your local store (like mine) has this policy.

        • limaecho on 29/11/2023 - 13:36

          Got it! Luckily our store doesn't set the 1k limit. Got > $1k variable load + fixed value and points reflected correctly on screen and docket.

      So basically the cards get taken and put back on the shelves, and then the their waits for the card to be purchased (and therefore activated) and uses it? How would they know when that happens? Aren’t the null until paid for ? I’m confused.

      Apple gift cards are available in a “variable load” denomination at Woolworths (and some other retailers), where you can choose the amount loaded onto the gift card between $20 and $500.

      For example, if you want to load $420 onto a single Apple gift card, you can do that with the variable load denomination.

  • junglejuice on 27/11/2023 - 23:45

    Make sure to verify that your receipt accurately reflects the acceptance of your EDR. A staff member at the self-check-in machine assisted me in utilizing the EDR card in merchant mode for a purchase exceeding 5 GC. Despite this, the receipt did not display the EDR. I promptly reported the issue to Customer Support when the points failed to appear within the specified timeframe indicated on the Woolies site. Unfortunately, Woolies did not honor the request, stating it was too late to add the points. Extremely frustrated.

    • Nelumbo on 28/11/2023 - 01:29

      That sucks :(

      Why didn’t you split up your purchase instead of buying > 5 in one transaction? Maybe because the staff member processed your transaction in ‘manager mode’, it made the EDR card to not scan?

      • junglejuice on 28/11/2023 - 09:28

        I scanned at first, thinking that if the machine were in manager mode, it would allow more than 5 GC with EDR. I think the staff made a mistake, but I had to pay for it.

  • CaptainAwesome on 28/11/2023 - 06:53

    A few questions before I buy these….
    1. Can you use a credit card to pay these ie get credit card points and get everyday reward points?
    2. Will the Apple store accept multiple gift cards, for example I want to buy an iPhone 15 Pro and it's $1849, can I use 3x$500 and 1x$349 to pay them?

    • quick-dry on 28/11/2023 - 14:55

      you can also load each card into your apple account's balance, and then it doesn't matter how many cards you use - it's all just a sum of money.

      It also seems prudent to load them onto your account immediately after purchase so you can make sure they activated and were activated properly onto the cards you have (and not either glitched out or some scammer holding the cards that match your outer packaging barcode)

      • j1568 on 29/11/2023 - 10:03

        Only thing is that if you load it up to Apple account balance, you can only use it online or through phone and not in store. While with the physical card you can use it in store.

        • quick-dry on 29/11/2023 - 15:00

          What will happen if it is different?

          If they don't match then it means that the code you're paying to activate isn't the one inside your gift card. You won't be able to redeem it.

          What is Woolworths doing to address this issue?

          I'm not sure. When the news first broke of the tampered cards a few weeks ago some stores pulled all of the Apple cards from sale but others, like the one I went to, stubbornly refused to despite multiple of their own customers falling victim.

    Hi, I've never tried the Everyday Rewards thing on Woolies but if it means I'll be saving a huge amount for my next Apple purchase I'm willing to give it a try. I'm having a bit of trouble understanding how this works. Do I just buy multiple Apple giftcards, and then scan my everyday rewards card at the check out, and then afterwards I get a lot of points which I can redeem to buy more gift cards? Cause I saw someone said that they managed to get a $3100 Mac for just $2700 with this promo.

In other words, if you want to do one large purchase of Apple gift cards tomorrow, you will need to do it in one transaction (or purchase some Apple gift cards at Woolworths and then go to BIG W and purchase additional Apple gift cards there, assuming you have a BIG W near you).

      • You may not be able to purchase all the Apple gift cards you want to purchase in one transaction. Different Woolworths staff members operating checkouts have a different gift card purchase approval limit assigned to them (e.g. $500, $1000, $2000). Additionally, some Woolworths staff members have a lower appetite to approve large-value purchases of gift cards than other staff (and that could be for a number of reasons). For example, you may find one store is happy for you to purchase $3,000 in Apple gift cards in one transaction, whereas another store will refuse to sell you more than $1,000.

      • You may want to consider opening up the gift cards to check whether the gift cards have been tampered with, because there has been a worrying spike recently in the number of reports of Apple gift cards that have been tampered. Read these comments above for more info if you have not already.

      then afterwards I get a lot of points which I can redeem to buy more gift cards?

      You will get a chunk of points (more specifically, 20x points for every $1 you spend on gift cards).

      You should not be able to use the points (more specifically, Everyday Rewards Dollars) to pay for gift cards, as that is against the Everyday Rewards terms and conditions, plus I have never seen an option to pay for an Apple gift card with Everyday Rewards Dollars at a Woolworths checkout. Having said that, someone further up said they were able to do that (presumably at a standard checkout operated by a dedicated staff member)…

        I see! I think people are using the Rewards Dollar to pay for more giftcards as I've seen someone in another thread say that they only had to pay around $2700 worth of giftcards to buy the $3000 M3 Pro. I guess it depends on the staff member.
