  • 'After clicking the pink 'Get Cashback' button from TopCashback, navigate via the Education "Shop for University" link in Apple's footer menu before adding items to cart.'

    Is the correct link to purchase on the Apple website after clicking the pink button at Topcashback and then scrolling all the way down to this link: https://files.ozbargain.com.au/upload/471387/119104/walled_g…

  • "Good to know" point 1 states "Cashback is eligible on purchases paid with gift cards, and is also eligible on purchase of Apple refurbished products."

    If you redeem Apple gift cards as Apple Account balance and then purchase, do you qualify for this cashback?

      I bought when they had usual 2% cashback, using apple gift card balance and card mix and they tracked they next day.

      • thanks @doodlejones So your cashback tracked before it shipped?

        • +1

          It was next day pickup. I think it tracked a few hours after I picked up.

          • @doodlejones: got it, thanks

            • +1

              @foogle: Im in the same boat just ordered using my apple account credit, that i uploaded all my gift cards on. Just bought a macbook but could only do delivery. I believe it should track when the item ships or is collected.

              • @Bonesaw321: yea that's what it says on the t&c at TCB.
                Do you know if cashback is capped? Op wrote no cap but nothing mentioned on TopCashback offer page

      • @doodlejones how long did it take for the funds to be available for payout?

        • I think it takes around 90 days to be payable.

  • With this 6% cashback and uni student accessory offer, this works better than AOC for Macbook.
    Op please confirm this is uncapped

    • Assuming one needs or wants another set of Airpods.

      Looks like it's uncapped based on Title: "Apple Education Store: 6% Cashback (No Cap, Exclusions Apply) @ TopCashback AU"

      Is this going to be the best deal, or is there another that's better to wait for?

      • No idea if its best deal yet. If you search ozbargain, you can find similar cashback from cashrewards and shopback and check how long ago it was and try predicting if another is coming soon. From memory, cashrewards and shopback have exclusions for latest versions of products and also have a cap. All depends on if you want to hold or pull the trigger 🤷‍♂️

        • I’ve been keeping watch for a few weeks now. The other offers from cashrewards and shopback excluded MacBook Pros and had caps. This seemed like the best so far, coupled with the free Airpods offer so went for it and purchase a MacBook Pro. Let’s see if it tracks, and then wait months for the cash back, assuming it gets approved

          • @PredatorvsAlien: 💯 this is the best deal so far. I am still on the fence, might pull the trigger soon.
            Interested to know if your purchase tracks. Post back when it does.

            • @foogle: Mine is a BTO MacBook Pro. ETA is 2 weeks. The free AirPods 4 with Active Noise Cancellation shipped this morning, arriving tomorrow. Tracking has not shown for the AirPods yet, and it may not track UNTIL the MBP arrives on the 29/01 or 30/01. Will keep you posted

              • @PredatorvsAlien: I have read by some that cashback for airpods and MacBook are tracked separately. You might see cashback tracking for airpods within 2 days of it shipping. So 6% of ($299 - gst). Tracking for Macbook will be 2 days after Macbook is shipped. But second cashback will be calculated on (Macbook price - $299) less gst

                • @foogle: Ok, I'll look out for the tracking. 6% of ($299 - gst), I calculate as = 6% x 271.81 = $16.31.

                  • @PredatorvsAlien: Just checked my TopCashback account and it's showing as..

                    Merchant: Apple

                    • @PredatorvsAlien: Bravo!! It tracked! Yoohoo!

                      • @foogle: Yeah, let’s see if it gets confirmed. Airpods got delivered 30 minutes ago

                      • @foogle: Did you place an order?

                        • @PredatorvsAlien: My local Woolworths ran out of variable apple gift cards, meaning this deal was not very good for me. Waiting for next 20x points for gift cards, hoping same deal comes again

                          • @foogle: ok. I never bothered with the Coles or Woolworths 20x points. As it didn’t feel like discount, and you had to spend more to get the value out of the points.

                            • @PredatorvsAlien: MacBook Pro arrived today.

                              Cashback status is: "Pending"

                              How long before this changes to "Confirmed" ?

  • any idea how long this offer will last?

  • better not be cappin' OP

  • +1

    For those of you new to OzBargain. The title contains useful information and below the social buttons is where deals have their start/end times.

  • -2

    When does this expire?

    • What does the deal say in the expiry section?

      • I’m half blind. Can’t see it

        • 22 Jan 5 days left

          • @Clear: Thank you good sir for helping an old man, with poor eyesight out

  • In T&C’s…

    “Apple Education Store: For eligible members based on Apple's T&Cs, after clicking the pink 'Get Cashback' button from TopCashback, navigate via the Education "Shop for University" link in Apple's footer menu before adding items to cart.”

    — in Apple’s footer menu?

    Can someone clarify

    • Click topcash link. That brings U to apple store. Scroll all the way down U will see 'shop for university' in apple footer menu. That brings U to the education page ( U will see the www…change to the au-edu store etc) on address bar. Then U know Ur in the education store. Then U can add to cart and buy. I purchased yesterday n picked up already. Topcash tracked the same night.

      • Ok thank you for the instructions. Will look at later

        Also, does the name on the TopCash account need to match the credit card on payment to be eligible?

        • Not sure. As long as invoice is in Ur name I suppose. Can't confirm.

          • @Ozb003: I went ahead and put the order in yesterday. Used my top cashback account but paid with my wife’s credit card and put her name down on the delivery and billing details. Hopefully this won’t be an issue

      • After it’s tracked, when does the cash land in your TopCash account?

        • Says about 12 weeks. Topcash tend to take long vs shop back n cash reward.

  • Also, does the name on the TopCash account need to match the credit card on payment to be eligible, or it doesn’t matter. Can anyone confirm?

    Eg. TopCash account in my name, but pay with my Wife’s credit card

  • MacBook Pro arrived today.

    Cashback status is: "Pending"

    How long before this changes to "Confirmed" ?
