Full credit to @Planes are cool for spotting this deal.
This deal seems to be only available at Ampol Foodary service stations. These locations may not have any signage regarding this deal, but you should ask the attendant whether their AmpolCash gift cards are discounted by 5%.
For those wondering:
This should be stackable with any Ampol cashback offer for instore spending.
I purchased an AmpolCash gift card earlier today using a 7-Eleven digital gift card as the payment method.
For anyone unfamiliar with AmpolCash physical gift cards:
They are accepted at all service stations listed on the Ampol store locator with EFTPOS facilities, including EG Ampol.1 (In contrast, AmpolCash Digital gift cards are only redeemable at around 95% of service stations listed on the Ampol store locator. I tend to prefer redeeming the physical gift cards, because all I need to do is tell the attendant is that I want to use a card as a payment method, then swipe.)
They can be redeemed in conjunction with most fuel discount offers available across the Ampol network.
They cannot be used as a payment method for FuelPay via the Ampol app, nor Pay at Pump via the EG Club app.
AFAIK, they cannot be used to pay for any gift cards. I have tried this at Ampol Foodary and EG Ampol in the past (although not recently) and got error messages on the EFTPOS terminal every time saying that my payment method was not permitted.
Even if you set a PIN on an AmpolCash physical gift card, you do not need to enter the PIN to redeem the gift card if you paying instore. Swiping the gift card and only pressing Enter on the EFTPOS terminal on the PIN prompt screen is sufficient to redeem the funds on the gift card.
The only ways you can check the balance are to (1) check the receipt for the last purchase made using the gift card, (2) call the AmpolCash team during their operating hours or (3) email the AmpolCash team.
