    2 hours from 12am to 2am, what a weird timing.

    • CyberMurning on 20/09/2024 - 15:59

      what? until 2 hours after midnight?

      • Hiphopopotamus on 20/09/2024 - 16:03

        Yep, that's what it says in the email.

        I wouldn't worry too much. I had a look at a few resorts im watching in Thailand and the prices were so inflated on Trip.comm let alone using cashback link that may as well just book normally elsewhere/Agoda.

          That's how all these booking sites work though, each app has certain hotels or rooms cheaper than others. When I book a trip that has multiple hotel stays I literally have bookings through about 3 or 4 different apps depending on whoever had the best price for the hotel I wanted. For example, Trip.com app has the best price for Crowne Plaza Phu Quoc for the 2 Double Premium Ocean View room which I've been waiting to book through a Shopback deal. Cheaper than all the other apps and sites. Just thought I'd point that out as I always see the "X app is so inflated!!!" comments

            @iluvbargainz: Yeah interesting. For me it's literally always been Agoda, Expedia, or Booking (or they are the same). But i dont doubt what you say, there is so much funny business tracking and analytics ontop of the normal price cycles that change over the course of days/weeks. I have found it alot harder in recent times to do a cashback WITHOUT the price actually being jacked making it pointless or not worth the risk of tracking issues. Impressed to see you found one. I have been watching for several weeks for my current Thailand trip and every cashback deal so far has only been on par/or jacked to be worse than my normal Agoda pay later booking. Still have a week to book too, so the games continue.

            • iluvbargainz on 20/09/2024 - 19:59
              +1

              @Xizor: Yeah Agoda is quite often the cheapest lately, however when it comes to the better or more expensive room types I've found some pretty good bargains on Trip. We got a Diplomatic Suite at Raffles Dubai including executive lounge access for a fraction of the usual price everywhere else back in April this year. I wonder if it tracks cookies and if you've already looked up a hotel rate on the app and then the cashback deal kicks in and you reopen that same hotel, maybe it holds the same price but if you haven't previously looked it up maybe it jacks then? Not sure of the sneaky ways they work but I absolutely don't doubt that they're sneaky AF. Haha damn, well good luck with your Thailand trip hopefully you get a decent cashback deal this time round

          A great deal if you are booking for China though. I use the others normally but Trip.com is a god send organising independent travel in China as it has the hotel relationships and train connections there all the others don't.

    be sure to view the price of the booking before activating shopback, usually increases the price by the % amount, also compare to other sites

      same… most of my recent bookings are without cashback activated as prices are jacked as soon as you activated cashback …… it wasn't like this few years back.

  • cheekymonkey97 on 20/09/2024 - 16:04

    Flight cashbacks are such a rip off considering a majority of the ticket is taxes so they're excluded from the cashback…

    • competitions on 20/09/2024 - 16:41

      • SydneySwan on 21/09/2024 - 09:06

        It is. In my experience the cashback is calculated strictly on the fare portion. Taxes and surcharges are excluded.

    • Hiphopopotamus on 20/09/2024 - 16:15

      They treat it as an international transaction huh? Too bad.

      I just realised it ends tonight anyway, if it renews I'll add it back in maybe not if they charge a 3% fee.

      • ATangk on 20/09/2024 - 16:24

        All hotels will charge in local currency. So best to use something without foreign transaction fees and forego the westpac 2%, unless booking a local hotel.

    • mangobango on 20/09/2024 - 20:23

      Yes, I have used the app a few times with these deals, always tracked.

    • qiminghenfan on 22/09/2024 - 17:09

      Hi, has it been tracked at the correct upsized %？I too is confused whether bookings through app will be approved 75 days after travel. In the OP's post, 'Cashback is not available through the Trip.com app', and SB's T&C also says 'Cashback is available only if you visit the Trip.com website via our platform'. As the % is quite large, I didn't risk to book through app. However, @mangobango can confirm bookings through app can also be tracked with these upsized deals, so just to check how did it go for you?

      One more thing, SB T&C also says 'This Cashback deal is not valid together with: 'Any Gift Card, Voucher or store credit redemption' and 'Promos or Vouchers not featured on ShopBack', so does anyone have prior experience with:
      1. Trip.com accrues trip coins in equivalent to small AUD values, by redeeming those trip coins in the transaction, will it exclude it from being tracked?
      2. Booking flights through the app will give me $20 discount automatically compared to its website, which I can't remove it by myself. Does this $20 in-app discount considerd as using 'Promos or Vouchers' which will also exclude it from being tracked?

      • mangobango on 22/09/2024 - 17:36

        However, @mangobango can confirm bookings through app can also be tracked with these upsized deals, so just to check how did it go for you?

        Yep every time I booked through the shopback app which then went through the trip.com app, it was always at the upsized rates with no issues.

        1. Trip.com accrues trip coins in equivalent to small AUD values, by redeeming those trip coins in the transaction, will it exclude it from being tracked?

        I have used trip coins and the bookings still tracked, as it's not a coupon code there shouldn't be an issue with it being confirmed later on down the track but they have definitely tracked.

        1. Booking flights through the app will give me $20 discount automatically compared to its website, which I can't remove it by myself. Does this $20 in-app discount considerd as using 'Promos or Vouchers' which will also exclude it from being tracked?

        Yes all those types of discounts are fine, as long as it's not a coupon code that you have to enter that's also not listed/advertised on shopback it will be fine. I booked some flights as well with a similar discount and it tracked normally with the boosted rate.

          Thank you so much for the clarification, I'll try app booking next time for these upsized deals. I missed $120 this time as I booked 6 flight tickets.

        • hanofee on 22/09/2024 - 21:34

          My experience was the other way around, the only one tracked at wrong rate this time was the hotel I did on the app (and another one with flight that hasn't even tracked yet). I did a few subsequent flights purchase on desktop, and they seems to be tracking better than one I did via shopback/trip.com app combination

      • K-Daddy on 23/09/2024 - 20:33

        Just to update you guys. My trip $12xx didn’t track with SB. It tracked my click but not the transaction. While I posted a question here, I also chat with SB Customer Service, they confirmed that cashback won’t be tracked using Trip.com app. I meant I wasn’t intending to use app but SB led me to Trip.com app whenever I clicked. So it’s pendinng for their resolution now. Finger cross.

    Don't worry about it. They normally jack the price up on shopback first. You can check the price first before you activate the shopback.

      From the Things you should know: section in the lounge:

      • Purchases made using digital wallets such as Apple Pay, Google Pay or Samsung Pay will be eligible for bonus Cashback as long as an eligible card is used as the linked payment method at the merchant's checkout. Apple gift card purchases may take up to 14 days to be tracked. Purchases made using an online payment method such as PayPal, where ShopBack is unable to identify whether an eligible card was used at the checkout (incluing any purchases made on ShopBack), will not qualify for bonus Cashback (even where an eligible card is linked e.g. to the PayPal account).

    Shopback purchase these days won't track first. When you raise ticket, they will then give incorrect cashback or ignore Bank cashback. You need to keep following up for several days to get promised cashback. Very frustrating experience.

            @douevenozbargain: Sorry but pls don't just assume that I didn't follow instructions. I have been doing it for years and made over 5k cashback frm different cashback platforms. It's just the trend I noticed with Shopback whenever bigger cashback is involved and it wasn't the first time. I'm not sour and I'll still use ShopBack but my preference would be Topcashback and Cashrewards. Special mention to Topcashback, their customer service today approved an Agoda cashback which didn't track but click was registered. Cheers!

    Have had the missing 8% cashback amount added into my account as a new line (but with the same midnight timestamps) after logging a ticket with the bot, seems they work weekends, relatively quick resolution at least. : )

    Cash back at 9% which is correct so happy with this deal !

    stayed awake last night to get the 18% cashback on hotel, checked the rates before midnigt and there was no jackup in my case, did 4 hotel bookings but all tracked at 10% or 11% … will raise complaint if no update in a few days, let's see..

    @gotyourback tracking was way off, booked a few more flights, some are tracking is like somewhere between 2-5%, nowhere near the 9-10% advertised :(

      because majority of the flight price is taxes

      • hanofee on 21/09/2024 - 20:56

        Not true. I just realized it’s actually tracked at 10% but it was the purchase amount that was too low. We bought same flight, but split it into 3 different batch. They were tracking at 20-50% the amount paid. Tax can’t be 80% of the ticket, right? And even that, how the proportion for exact same flight/price tracked differently?
