$20-$500 TCN Luxury eftpos - $7.95 fee —> $500 card —> 5000 points (worth min $25 or more if you convert qantas) —> savings around $17.

Can we use this card to pay Council bills?

  The TCN Luxury eftpos gift card can only be used in-person at merchants that choose to accept prepaid eftpos gift cards as a payment method, so it depends on whether the merchant (e.g. council offices, Australia Post) will let you pay your council rates using a prepaid eftpos gift card.
  
  If your council rates are over $500 (or whatever the available balance is on your gift card), it will also depend on whether the merchant can handle split payments.

Can you add the EFTPOS card to Google pay?

- WookieMonster on 13/05/2024 - 19:53

  No.
  
  The TCN Luxury eftpos gift card cannot be directly added to a mobile wallet, and it also currently cannot be exchanged for a digital TCN eftpos gift card.
  - samehada on 14/05/2024 - 09:30
    
    What is digital EFTPOS gc? So you can add to Google Pay/Apple Pay? Is this kind of Visa/MC?
    - WookieMonster on 14/05/2024 - 09:43
      
      +1
      
      It is a prepaid eftpos gift card that can be added to Apple Pay or Google Wallet. (I believe it does not support Samsung Wallet at the moment.) It is not a Visa card nor Mastercard, and it does not need Visa nor Mastercard to function.
      
      You need to use the TCN app to tokenise the gift card so it can be added to the mobile wallet, as there is no way at the moment you can manually add an eftpos-only card to a mobile wallet.
      
      There was a deal late last year for the digital TCN eftpos gift card.
      - JohnSauce on 17/05/2024 - 23:28
        
        @WookieMonster: Are you able to add the digital TCN gift cards to wallet? When I tried it goes could not add card try again later or contact your card issuer for more information.

If the luxury gift card isn’t MCC restricted can it be used to purchase other gift cards at a supermarket? The old endless loop of gift card buying gift cards?
- trotsky on 13/05/2024 - 20:06
  
  +5
  
  No, because MCC (Merchant Category Code) is a restriction implemented by card issuers to limit where you can use the cards based on merchant types, and the marketing blurb for these are that they are available for use anywhere where EFTPOS is accepted. The limitation is that cash withdrawals are not permitted.
  
  It's woolies/coles who block on their side to stop gift cards purchasing gift cards, this isn't an MCC restriction, it's likely a BIN restriction (bank identification number) which would stop cards issued by TCN or other gift card vendors from being used to purchase gift cards.

    Great explanation!
    - Poor Ass on 14/05/2024 - 11:35
      
      -3
      
      there is a way to utilise the EFTPOS gift card funds and then you can use those funds like a visa or master debit card to buy whatever you want that Master or Visa is accepted but requires some effort
      
      also can cash it out if you want with a small fee
      
      but no you can't do the endless loop thing at the supermarket and even if you can the discounts will get so little each time not worth it

Does anyone know if the Shopback supermarket gift card can be used to buy this?
- WookieMonster on 13/05/2024 - 20:54
  
  +2
  
  Vaniila Visa: someone told me a few weeks ago they got an Items Not Allowed error when they tried this.
  
  TCN Luxury eftpos: I have not heard any reports, but I 100% expect the Items Not Allowed error to appear if you try this, because the same error appears if you try to use a ShopBack Supermarket Visa gift card to purchase the other two types of TCN eftpos gift cards sold at Woolworths.
  
  Uber: it will probably work.

    Hey @WookieMonster do you know if these Luxury EFTPOS cards can be used to buy other gift cards at Officeworks, Coles or Myer? Thanks!
    - WookieMonster on 13/05/2024 - 21:14
      
      +2
      
      Officeworks: that is tricky, because I have never used an eftpos gift card at Officeworks that shares the BIN with the eftpos gift card in this deal. I know you cannot use Westfield eftpos gift cards at Officeworks for anything (not even for purchases of regular goods, such as stationery), as you get a Declined - Card Not Accepted on the EFTPOS terminal as soon as you swipe the Westfield eftpos gift card. Btw, keep in mind that Officeworks has a gift card policy that forbids you from using any gift card to purchase any gift card from them, so even if there are no automatic blocks, a staff member who is really on the ball can ruin your plans (which happened to me twice).
      
      Coles: I have not used an eftpos gift card at Coles that shares the BIN with the eftpos gift card in this deal within the last two years. However, there was this comment on a recent Coles deal.
      
      Myer: I have never used an eftpos gift card at Myer, so I really have no idea what kind of automatic blocks Myer has implemented (but knowing Myer, there is likely none at all). Keep in mind that at Myer, when you are purchasing a Coles Group & Myer (or Myer) gift card, the staff member has to swipe the gift card first to activate it before asking for payment from you, so if your eftpos gift card is declined (or rejected by staff) when you go to pay, you still have to pay for the gift card another way.

      It's an EFTPOS card that works everywhere. Why turn it into a store specific card?
      - Poor Ass on 14/05/2024 - 11:28
        
        @JIMB0: probably wasn't thinking
      - joeiwu on 14/05/2024 - 11:51
        
        @JIMB0: Because, it cannot be spent online, and everyone wants different use-cases. For example, buying discounted Apple cards to load balance with the EFTPOS card which yields further discount.
        
        JIMB0 on 14/05/2024 - 12:23
        
        @joeiwu: You'd be better off buying Apple cards from the supermarket when they're having a deal.
        
        joeiwu on 14/05/2024 - 12:27
        
        @JIMB0: That's precisely why I'm asking. Coles 20x flybuy points, then buy using EFTPOS card. Double-dip, no?
        
        JIMB0 on 14/05/2024 - 14:53
        
        @joeiwu: It might work for buying a card that isn't open loop. They've gotten good at blocking these cards nowadays.

  I managed to find 2. I too noticed how easy it was to just peel back the scratch part and then reapply. I guess the concern is someone could register your card online once it's loaded then they claim it as their own and report it lost, then get a card reissued to them?
