    Can anyone please confirm if this can still be used to pay the ATO?

    • browser on 04/12/2024 - 09:29

      Just did this morning.

      I tend to use the prepaid cards immediately to avoid issues down the track.

      Make advance payments to various bills, use a spreadsheet to track credits are correctly applied in future bills.

    • Warmachine99 on 04/12/2024 - 17:34

      Yes but they incur a credit card surcharge so just do the math to use up the full $500 in one transaction

    Majura park Canberra ACT has 4 vanilla visa and 1 birthday gift card. Variable 20-500 version.
    I only bought 2 visa, effectively 2 vanilla visa and 1 birthday gift card left.
    Staff said only a couple of cards were sold in the morning I would assume there are some hiding in the frozen area.
    Happy hunting :p

  • Alinnia on 04/12/2024 - 10:14

    @WookieMonster Do you know if these can be added to PayPal? What about adding to Google Wallet? Thanks in advance.

    • WookieMonster on 04/12/2024 - 10:19

      I just linked the one I purchased this morning to PayPal and had no issues.

      I tried adding the one I purchased this morning to Google Wallet, but I got the following message:

      This card can’t be set up for contactless payments. Your bank doesn’t support paying contactless on your device with your card. Try adding another card or see which cards can be set up to pay contactless.

      • r8 on 04/12/2024 - 11:26

        I got the same error message with google wallet contactless payment. Also note that the Samsung pay doesnt support Vanilla visa for contactess payments.

      • bravemeow on 04/12/2024 - 23:16

        Hi @WookieMonster kindly ask when people would use PayPal?

        I just sign up PayPal and link one prepaid card successfully.

          You can use PayPal at online merchants that choose to accept them.

          PayPal is particularly useful if you want to purchase an item from an online merchant that will otherwise reject your Vanilla Visa gift card if you try to use it directly on the website instead.

          For example, if you want to buy a discounted Woolworths gift card from a Woolworths Group partner portal using your Vanilla Visa gift card, directly entering the gift card into the debit/credit card section will not work, because Woolworths will not process payments from prepaid Visa gift cards. However, if you check out using PayPal and choose your linked Vanilla Visa gift card as the payment source, Woolworths Group will process your order.

  • browser on 04/12/2024 - 10:31

    Some payment gateways charge $1 pre-auth (could be other amounts as well), that temporarily lowers the card balance by a dollar and may causes the actual transaction to fail. Workaround is to pay a dollar less (or whatever the pre-auth amount is) than the available balance. Use the remaining balance to pay utilities or at supermarkets.

    • Warmachine99 on 04/12/2024 - 17:35

      Yea great advice, took me a while to figure this out the first time

  • shjames on 04/12/2024 - 11:13

    thanks for sharing and calculation.

  • jimwh on 04/12/2024 - 11:38

    can this card used in shopback?

    • Warmachine99 on 04/12/2024 - 17:35

      Yes it can. So stack the discounts.

  • BuyNow on 04/12/2024 - 11:50

    Can this still be used at coles to buy apple gift cards?

    • Warmachine99 on 04/12/2024 - 17:36

      Yes from my previous experience it still can.

  • webtherapist on 04/12/2024 - 11:51

    use these to buy Apple gift cards from Coles (x20 pts) :)

  • 1d0ntkn0w on 04/12/2024 - 12:09

    Can you use these to buy gift cards from amazon?

    • webtherapist on 04/12/2024 - 12:12

      used to work, not sure about now, u just add it as a new main payment but using too many will flag them to lock your account temporarily

    • Warmachine99 on 04/12/2024 - 17:37

      Yep. I used one to buy a category choice gift card last month and worked perfectly fine.

  • henrus on 04/12/2024 - 12:15

    I had no issues this morning with plenty of stock in store and could purchase via self service check out no issues with a special card.

    • cloudy on 04/12/2024 - 14:19

      Did you split payment to pay using special card? Or you happened to have over $500 on the special card?

      • henrus on 04/12/2024 - 14:33

        Got a variable so could load just under by subtracting the card fee (but a whole dollar value) means I know have 5c on the special.

      • foxes28 on 04/12/2024 - 16:38

        If it helps, I bought 2 cards this morning in different transaction. Each was paid with split payment (Special GC from AMEX/Yello deals + normal CC)

        • cloudy on 04/12/2024 - 21:39

          I didn’t know you can split payments, very helpful thank you!

          Was that at self checkout?

          • foxes28 on 04/12/2024 - 22:38

            @cloudy: Yep but I’m sure you can do that at the assisted checkout too

    • jusoh on 04/12/2024 - 14:32

      What's a special card?

      • henrus on 04/12/2024 - 14:40
        +2

        Special is a gift card that has a woolies branded version, it loads into Apple Pay and used like a normal Mastercard so unlike wish gift card it can be used to purchase other gift cards. Many banks also have 10% Cashback (for example Amex recently had $20 cashback on $200 spend and CBA $10 on a $100 spend).

    What is the website to check for balance?
    Google gave two different website and I am sceptical to use either now.

    • VantageXL on 04/12/2024 - 16:27

      The first one is correct. The second one is for customers in the US.

          For future reference, you shouldn't use Google to find the balance check website for a gift card as there's a higher chance of you entering your details into a scam website. Always refer to what is printed on the gift card itself or listed in the offer terms and conditions.

            @VantageXL: I didn't even think to read what is on the card. I am usually a bit smarter than that I promise. Thanks again :)

    Anyone was able to pay ATO from cards bought today? My payments thru Easy Pay got declined. Can't try thru mygov as i am paying for someone else.

    • ujwols on 04/12/2024 - 16:37

      yep paid directly through ato worked fine

    • divs on 04/12/2024 - 16:37
      +1

      Yes, I just paid, and it works! The ATO is happy now. You'll need to enter $498.01 plus a $1.99 service fee (0.4%) auto-applied, making it a total payment of $500 per card.

      • Save 50 Cent on 04/12/2024 - 16:38

        Yeah that is the amount I tried. Did you pay thru Easy Pay?

        • divs on 04/12/2024 - 16:40
          +1

          I logged in to ATO website then top menu Tax > Payments > Payment > credit or debit card

        • Save 50 Cent on 04/12/2024 - 17:21

          For everyone who might also be having similar trouble, my payments thru easy pay were getting declined on Safari. Worked on Chrome for some reason.

  • leiiv on 04/12/2024 - 17:35

    Did anyone try to buy more than two today? Is the limit enforced by the system?

    • Warmachine99 on 04/12/2024 - 17:39

      I think it's limited by the system on the number of points per day you can receive

  • Warmachine99 on 04/12/2024 - 17:40
    +1

    Has anyone tried buying 2 of the regular $500 and 2 of the Birthday $500 in one day? Does it still give you points for both transactions like it did last time?

    • yoyo6 on 04/12/2024 - 20:16

      Yes, I did it

      • 1d0ntkn0w on 04/12/2024 - 22:13

        And you got 20000 points total on one rewards card?

  • eecchhoo on 04/12/2024 - 17:42

    At the self checkout, if I am getting 2x500, is there any limit how many split payments we can do?

    • test8888 on 04/12/2024 - 20:26
      +3

      no limit, but suggest to pay one card each time due to too many approvals for 2x cards then staff may notice you :)

  • lilkid28 on 04/12/2024 - 22:25

    Bought 4 cards tonight… came home and used first card immediately without issues. 2nd card opened - 9th-12th digit had been scratched off. 3 digit CVV had been scratched off. Opened 3rd and 4th card - same issue. This is bad! Seek refund/replacement from Woolies or Vanilla/Heritage & People's Choice?

    • 1d0ntkn0w on 04/12/2024 - 22:58

      That sucks… Which woolies did you buy them from? Also was they any noticeable tampering on the packaging?

      • lilkid28 on 04/12/2024 - 23:26

        Flemington. No noticeable tampering.. looks perfectly normal.

  • ivycmlee on 05/12/2024 - 01:41

    Hi everyone just purchased 2 from my local woolies, tried to use on shopback, didn't work. Tried again on Rewards app to purchase another gift card, still didn't work. Any ideas where we can use those cards?

    • Alinnia on 05/12/2024 - 01:42
      +1

      You may need to wait up to 24 hrs for the card to activate before you can use it. Try again tomorrow and let us know. I'll be disappointed to hear if it can't be used in Shopback.
