  • Nothing on my Elevate Amex or Velocity Escape Amex cards. Have used the Elevate card to pay for PT before but prefer using my Opal card

  • I guess people from interstate will receive this offer lol. Nothing on my edge / explorer.

  • Got it on my Qantas Discovery.

  • Got it on one my reserve cards

  • +1

    Very interested to know if this applies also to the airport line station access fees. Might even make Central to Domestic competitive with Didi.

    • Good question.

      Those T&Cs imply that this offer is to encourage use of the Credit Card itself, to tap & pay, instead of paying with the Opal card.

      So, by that assumption, going to the Airport should get you that cashback, but the $5 cashback is spends of $20 and more (for a maximum of 3 times).

    • It should work. As long as the amount is charged to Amex card

  • nothing on Explorer :(

  • Got this on my Qantas ultimate

  • Upto 3 times means $20 x3 =$5 ×3 cashback?

    • +1

      Yes. You have to send $20 3 times (in one or more transactions)

  • No wonder i didn't receive it on my AMEX Gold. As i use that card all the time for transport.

    • yeah same sucky didnt come up on my amex explorer

  • Got it on my Amex Explorer. Wonder if it works if I top up my Opal card using the Amex?

    • I doubt it. But feel free to try and let us know

    • Excludes Opal card top-ups or any purchases of saver fares, vouchers or passes via the Opal website and app.

        Phrasing is open to interpretation. If all Opal card top-up methods are excluded (options are online, in-app, and at ticket machines at stations), they should put a comma after “Excludes Opal card top-ups”. It could be interpreted that you will qualify for the credit if you top up at a station.

      • Yep I read it says Opal website and app. Might try it at a train station to see if it manages to work :)

  • nothing on platinum

  • Yesterday(31/10) was the first time I used plat edge instead of opal.. hoping that the transaction comes up as 01/11 making it eligible for the cashback

  • How do you spend $20 in one transaction on travel in NSW on the Opal network?

    • +1

      They didn't say must be one transaction.

    • +1

      I assume as long as smaller trips all add up to over $60, you should get the 3 x $5 back

      • But keep in mind, once you reach $20, they won’t carry forward the spend over $20 to the next $20 spend. For example, if you travel 3 times during peak hours from Parramatta to Chatswood, the cost would be $24.09. Then you will get the $5 cashback. But the excess $4.09 spend would not carry forward. And you need to do another set of transactions to reach $20.

  • Wonder if it'll work for topping up via one of the station machines… T&C's state top up via website or app isn't eligible but nothing about the kiosks 🤔

  • Don't have this offer sadly. I live in NSW but use an opal card rather than payment cards to travel.

  • Got it on my Platinum Edge (never used it for TfNSW journeys). I live in Sydney.
