  • I can use Ultimate Him to buy apple gift cards in jb hifi, right? Just swipe and select "credit"?

    • Ok just read in FAQ that it's now forbidden according to T&С from Nov 2023. Wondering if someone tried to do that since

    • I attempted it last year and it worked, but it seems they have tightened the rules, limiting the number of Apple Gift Cards you can buy.

      • Depends on the store. Some will do some will reject

        • I just bought a $100 Him card and loaded it into my Google Wallet. Used it to buy $100 of Stan gift cards at JB without any problems. There's no hard lock out on their POS so if you don't want to have to sneak it past the register staff, just load it onto your mobile wallet.

  • +5

    FYI, there is currently an issue with the Ultimate gift card website, where one page says the Ultimate Students gift card includes QBD Books, but another page states it does not. I have asked Blackhawk Network for clarification, but I am yet to receive a response.

  • Is there a limit?

    • +3

      It’s says 30,000 max points. (20 points per dollar spend) so $1500 max. Please correct me if wrong. I’m still trying to work it out for myself.

      • +1

        Math checks out yes. $1500

    • +1

      My Coles (St Agnes, SA) has signs up there is a limit of 5 gift cards per customer (which I did not see).

      I tried to buy 8 (total $400) in self serve and the girl wouldn’t allow it. She then went to every other person operating a checkout and told them that there was a limit of 5 and to not allow me through with more. Was a weird overreaction from her but okay.

      Any other Coles locations putting limits like this?

      • Same here in Vic, ( at least my local coles), 5 per card, per person, per day.
        So if you dont mind travelling, haha !

  • Anyone know if you can use any of these to get apple gift cards? Eg buy Apple GCs with JB? Or have they put a stop to this?

    • Unlikely, I don't know of any places that still do gift cards with gift card purchases

      • Some jb hifi let you do it. I have done it in the past no problem at all.

    • Why not just buy Apple products from JB?

      • Apple you have 14 days to return it, if you don’t like it. I guess that’s why people do it.

      • Already have some Apple GCs from prior deal.

      • Already have a substantial Apple Account balance and need to top it up to buy a product from the Apple store. Can't use Apple Account balance at JB HiFi.

  • +3

    Cards cannot be used towards the purchase of any other gift cards or vouchers at participating merchants.

  • So what does it work out to be saving wise? 10%?

    • It's not a cashback or discount (and you can't cash it out), you need to spend the 10% you get in flybuys. So discount wise I would only consider it ~9%.
      e.g. uber eats can be gotten with 10% discount, I would prefer that over the 10% back in points.

    • +1

      I don't know if this makes sense for you.
      Consider purchasing $1000 worth of gift cards; you generate 20000 flybuys points. This can be exchanged into $100 worth of flybuys dollars, when you spend the money at Coles or something. So given that yes, it is a 10% off.

      • -3

        Not really, when you use flybuy dollars you don’t get flybuy points.

        • +1

          Incorrect.
          When you converts the points into FB$ first and spend the FB$, you get points from the spending just like you would with any other payment method.
          It's ONLY if you let the terminal to automatically take $10 off by redeeming 2000 points before you get to the payment screen that you don't get points.

  • I got given one of these and annoyingly JB hifi does not allow you to use them online - instore only.

    • +4

      I'm pretty sure you can exchange them for JB-Hifi digital gift cards on the Ultimate Gift card website. Then you can use the JB gift card online or in store. All the best.

      • Thanks! Didn't know this. Will try it out :)

      • Can I use all the 15 in one go after I exchanged to JB gift cards online to buy the new iPhone lol?

    • +3

      @Hunter14 I've bought one of the Ultimate gift cards (with JB Hi-Fi) and exchanged to a JB Hi-Fi eGift Card to be used online (type expiry date as 12/29): www.exchangeyourcard.com.au

      The Ultimate Gift Cards are a range of physical gift cards that are exchanged here for a participating merchants e-gift(s) Step 1. Visit the Exchange website www.exchangeyourcard.com.au enter your Ultimate card number, Expiry and CVV located at the back of the card underneath the scratch panel. Step 2. Select your e-gift card/s of choice, from the list of participating merchants. Step 3. Once you've checked out and confirmed your order, you'll receive an email with your e-gift selections. Step 4. Now you can redeem your e-gift cards at the selected merchant/s, either instore or online.

        Ah awesome. Didn't know about this. Will try it out. Thanks a lot!

      • Any idea how long it takes to receive the email?

        • I received within a few minutes.

        • +1

          Mine took 43 seconds. I timed it so that I could answer your question :)

      • Can I use JB HIFI Egift card to buy Apple gift card in JB HIFI?

    • The Ultimate gift card website says you can use an Ultimate gift card directly on the JB Hi-Fi website, but you need to redeem it like a Visa card.

      Has something changed?

      • I tried entering the gift card number but there's only 16 digits on the physical card and they require 18 digits. However, as some people have kindly pointed out - you can exchange them to a JB hifi gift card which should work.

        • +1

          An exchange would work fine for JB Hi-Fi, but not all participating retailers allow you to do an exchange.

          For future reference, do not enter the Ultimate gift card details into the Gift Card section of the JB Hi-Fi online checkout (or for any participating retailer, for that matter). Ultimate gift cards are not redeemed the same way at JB Hi-Fi as a JB Hi-Fi gift card. You instead need to enter the Ultimate gift card details into the Credit/Debit Card section of a participating retailer’s online checkout. (I hinted at this in my previous comment when I said you need to redeem an Ultimate gift card like a Visa card. For example, you do not enter the details of a Visa credit card into the Gift Card section of the online checkout, and the Ultimate gift card is no different.)

          • @WookieMonster: Does this limit you to one card per purchase?

            • @digitalane: Online, yes. However, the workaround for JB Hi-Fi is to exchange the Ultimate gift card for a digital JB Hi-Fi gift card on the Ultimate gift card's exchange portal. If you need to use 81 gift cards again, you should be okay to redeem 81 JB Hi-Fi gift cards in one online transaction. :)

        • +3

          Is it still restricted to a maximum of one Ultimate gift card in one transaction online at the JB Hi-Fi website?

          Yes.

          I only said “an Ultimate gift card” in my comment above. I never said anything about multiple Ultimate gift cards!

          I needed to redeem several physical Ultimate gift cards to make up the amount so it was easier to convert them to JB Hi-Fi eGift Cards.

          If you were purchasing on the JB Hi-Fi website, the only option available is to do what you did (i.e. an exchange).

          If you were purchasing at a physical JB Hi-Fi store, I would leave the Ultimate gift cards as is, because I do not want to have to deal with the hassle of converting each Ultimate gift card and then storing them on an app or printing them so that they were ready for redemption.

          • @WookieMonster:

            I only said “an Ultimate gift card” in my comment above. I never said anything about multiple Ultimate gift cards!

            Thanks for clarifying :)

            Just checking if the physical Ultimate gift cards can be used at any physical stores listed as is? I haven't tried too many stores yet.

            • +2

              @trixieb: Yes, as long as the participating retailer is listed as accepting the Ultimate gift card in-store. For example, you cannot use a physical Ultimate gift card in-store at HOYTS, because HOYTS is an exchange-only participating retailer.

  • good for new apple stuff.

  • How about Ultimate Students - we can use it in office works to buy Apple gift cards right ?

    • Good luck.

      • It is against the Ultimate gift card terms and conditions and the Officeworks gift card policy to do this.

      • Officeworks should have updated their checkouts and payment systems over a year ago to block this. When I tried to use an Ultimate gift card to purchase a gift card in-store at Officeworks last year, the checkout immediately rejected it. The EFTPOS terminal displayed Invalid Product Mix, and the checkout person saw a message on their screen saying that I cannot use a gift card type payment method for the item I was purchasing.

  • Great deal. I just wish Amazon, eBay or Woolies accepted them. Ikea is also handy as

  • What's the refund process like if you're returning an item change of mind, or faulty that you've purchased with a gift card? Just generally speaking, I suppose most stores will vary. I checked the FAQ and didn't see this mentioned.

    • +1

      Goes back on a store giftcard

      • Hm fair enough. Cheers for the info!

  • Can we just use the card to order iphone via jb hifi?

  • No limitation on the number of cards per person/day

    • No but there’s an overall cap of what will effectively be a $1500 spend throughout the entire promotion period. See comments above.

    • -2

      My local Coles has signs that says max 5 cards per customer per day… ridiculous

      • +1

        That’s their normal limitation against gift card fraud. But you can purchase in separate transactions.

    • I got hit with a 5 card limit today. Seemed to per transaction though so he did 3 separate ones

  • -1

    $30=600 Flybuys Points; $50 = 1,000 Flybuys Points; $100 = 2,000 Flybuys Points.

    So bascially spend 100 get $10 worth of flybuys (less than 10%)

    • why less than 10%?

        • +3

          When did this change happen?

          I paid for my grocery shopping at Coles last night using Flybuys Dollars, and the points I earned from that transaction came through a couple of hours ago (and I earned 1x point per $1, as expected).

          I also have also in the past earned Flybuys points when redeeming Flybuys Dollars at Target, Kmart and First Choice Liquor.

          The terms and conditions of Flybuys Dollars (at the bottom of this webpage) does not mention anything about Flybuys Dollars redemptions stopping you from earning points.

          There is even a FAQ on the Flybuys website saying you will still earn Flybuys points when redeeming Flybuys Dollars.

        • +1

          Incorrect.
          When you converts the points into FB$ first and spend the FB$, you get points from the spending just like you would with any other payment method.
          It's ONLY if you let the terminal to automatically take $10 off by redeeming 2000 points before you get to the payment screen that you don't get points.

  • with all the giftcard deals over the past few months you'd think we're in some sort of economic downturn/recession … oh wait

  • What are the chances we'll see another 15% off between mid to late September like last year?

    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/800798

    • Most likely just before Xmas, I think

  • What are the chances of hacking on these cards? Has anyone lost any money previously on these. Im planning to buy $1500 for new iphone but it will be sometime between phone come to the market

    • +1

      If someone “hacks” your Ultimate gift card, you are probably very unlucky.

      Read the first part of this comment on why I say that.

    • Convert them to the retailer you are planning to buy with and it should be safer

      • Can we convert to.office works?

  • +1

    Their ultimate gift for him is so confused. Coles in my area only stock old ultimate hime 50 and 100 (3years expire) and new variable card logo (50-500) with 5 years expiry.
    I dont know which one works when both gift card is the same company. So stupid.

    • +1

      Agreed, very confusing. I bought a fixed $50 yesterday, logo on those is different than logo on the promo (promo is showing the new logo on variable card). Received bonus today for 950 points. Total is 50 points + 950 bonus points. Hope that helps.

      • I was also confused by the branding on promo and old branding of cards. So you are saying old logo or branding cards same denomination would work in this deal?

        • +1

          That is correct. Works for me with old logo branding on the $50

          • @33725: Thanks mate

            • @harryaus: You're welcome. Also after I received those points for the $50, I purchased more of the $100 from different shops, also with old logo branding. Can confirmed received all points the day after

  • I didn't see any banners up on my local Coles for this deal, too scared to buy any :(

      • But they're not discounted, the deal is bonus flybuys points

        • They still have banners in my store…… (and little things over the specific peg that the Him and Her cards are on)

  • Like others likely will - I’m aiming to use these to buy an iPhone from JBhifi. Would like to try and pre-order on Friday but worried the time taken to enter 20 JB gift cards into the checkout will make me miss out on the phone. Any tips?

  • can we buy these using the Coles $250 master GC?

  • How long does it take to exchange the Ultimate gift cards to JB gift cards? The time from clicking exchange to receiving the email

    • Instant for me

  • Where are you locate, mate? I saw my coles catalogue in ACT is different this week

    • +1

      Do you have a picture?

      • There is no attach image function here, mate. In ACT are 10% off uber gift card etc.

        • +2

          You can upload an image onto OzBargain using the Media File Uploader, then link to it in your comment. Alternatively, you can use a third-party tool (e.g. imgur).

          Anyway, the gift card deal you referring to is this one. However, the one posted in this particular deal is not in any Coles catalogue. Chances are that if you go to a Coles store, they will have the small display tags on the physical gift card shelf (similar to the ones shown in the picture for this deal).

          • @WookieMonster: Bro I remember you, thank you so much again! I will check Coles tonight to see.

          • @WookieMonster: bro urgent!!!! I went to coles but only old design ultimate him left, can I still buy it? on advertisement is new ultimate card image thanks

            • +1

              @LeonZS: It should work. There is nothing in the terms and conditions to say that you have to buy the Ultimate gift card with the exact same design as the one on the advertising.

  • I just discovered there's a "HIM" card from TCN (The Card Network) and it's NOT the same as the Ultimate Him card. I spent way too long trying to exchange my card. I rang Ultimate and discovered the difference :(
    I guess I'm not getting 20x Flybuys points either.

    • Ah that's a shame. So no luck exchanging it?

      • I asked but was told "we're not supposed to". A friend will get a $50 birthday present :)

        • Yeah that's probably the easiest solution in that case

    • You can exchange to JB/TGG on TCN website

  • How long does it take to get the 20x points? I purchased some yesterday and only received the purchase amount yet.

    • Same here. :(
      Hopefully it will show up soon

    • Same, i'm not buying anymore till i know it works.
