    Courtesy reminder if you pay via Paypal, it will not give you option what currency to pay in, so PP will automatically charge you in AUD according to PP’s atrocious conversion rate.

      @tightarse may we know the end date to this deal please? 🙏 TIA

      • Store Reptightarse @ TopCashback AU on 18/01/2025 - 06:52

        Hi, and thanks for the tag! This is set to end 23:59 AEDT tomorrow (Sunday) unless PureVPN pulls it earlier (highly unlikely).

        Here’s a few tips if I may. Prior to using TopCashback, disable/remove all 3rd party plugins (AdBlock, uBlock, Pi-hole, Honey, etc), VPNs, and avoid browsers such as Brave. Ensure you accept cookies on PureVPN's landing page if requested, which holds true for any retailer.

        Also important to remember that should tracking fail for whatever reason, please cancel using their free 31-day money-back guarantee policy. No point lodging a claim to possibly have it rejected by PureVPN as attributed elsewhere.

        At the moment tracking is taking around 60-90 minutes, but always allow 24 hours due to varying factors (API stalling, reporting delays etc). Most orders are currently reporting cashback at $223 & $117.

        Enjoy the weekend ahead guys!

          I bought the NordVPN CB deal 2 days ago, and the Everyday Mobile and Felix Mobile ones 3 days ago, and am yet to see them tracked in my account. I went to submit support tickets for them, per the site's instructions, and see in the form that the click throughs have been recorded, and are in the system somewhere. Admittedly, I used Brave browser, which I now you see from your instructions to avoid, but did not see any warnings about when using the site or the app.

            @wisdomtooth: And they won't track. Do not use Brave. Open “What else is essential” for any retailer on TopCasback and you’ll see the following:

            Engaging with plugins such as Honey, AdBlock, uBlock, Pi-hole, VPNs, and browsers such as Brave may prevent your order from tracking.

            I can assure you that NordVPN will not pay on your cashback claim if you used Brave. Please close the claim and request a refund via their 30-day guarantee. I also have the following at the base of all my TCB posts:

            For tracking success, disable/remove all 3rd party plugins (AdBlock, uBlock, Pi-hole, Honey, etc), VPNs, avoid browsers such as Brave, close additional browser tabs, and don't click away to other sites looking for codes etc after clicking from TopCashbackAU as tracking will be lost. TopCashbackAU must be the very last click/tap prior to purchase. Try our iOS/Android mobile app for improved tracking results. Use our Help Centre & Contact form here for any questions, issues, or claims.

              Done. Anything I can do about Felix and Everyday Mobile? I can see by the date and times in the dropdown menu of the support ticket screen they've been recorded in the system somehow (same with NordVPN, but didn't wanna risk it anyhow, so cancelled it anyway)…

                @wisdomtooth: Hi. Clicks are always recorded no matter what. A click is however no guarantee of tracking or converting to a sale due to some of the blockers I mentioned above. If you can cancel and re-order via a clean browser/app, then that's the best option. Else lodge a claim and we'll do our best with the retailer. Please remember we always want claims to be successful as it means we get paid too. Hope this helps.

              As did switching to Safari browser on desktop.

                  @tightarse: I have had this issue before, with either Cash Rewards or Shopback and I think Amazon or ebay
                  As the purchase price and cashback was so low, I didn't care. I loaded the Vendor page form the error page by typing URL, and the transaction was tracked. Fine to risk for pissy little amounts, wouldn't trust that in this situation.

                      And after purchase do you need to actually use/log in to your account or purely just complete the purchase?

                        @Brick50: You can buy again after 30 days, however using the same email address will mean you’re not a new customer for PureVPN so it won't track.

        I use Paypal and select NOT to use their FX as my Wise card is there for that. Main thing is to pay US$ not AU and remember to select country that doesn’t have tax to avoid the 10% GST which doesn’t get Cashback on that portion.

            @wangasm: No, I just checked my screen recording when I purchased on 27Sep24. I paid using my Wise Cr/Card (via Paypal) in $US back on 27Sep24. Payment and FX show on my Wise card so definitely worked.
            Perhaps their systems have changed in the last 4 months?

            • noelhoi on 18/01/2025 - 15:24

              @Borg: No, even since Aug last year they had no option to choose currency upon checkout via Paypal. Many others have confirmed the same.

              • Borg on 18/01/2025 - 17:25

                @noelhoi: Ah ok, I paid in US$, and must have been the default from the get go.

                My initial reply was more related to the comment of "unfortunately prefer to pay via paypal". I was noting that it was fine and no drama's checking out via Paypal and using my Wise card as payment in US$.

    • neoleo on 18/01/2025 - 12:57

      The reason why you need Wise account for Paypal ;-)

      No currency conversion from PayPal by using my Wise virtual card. I have USD balance in my Wise account. PayPal charged me exactly the same from PureVPN purchase.

    • ThePointsGuru on 18/01/2025 - 15:21

      If I have US$ in my Paypal balance, will it still convert to AUD first and then US$ again?

      • noelhoi on 18/01/2025 - 15:25

        That I’m not sure maybe others can help, @neoleo
        But i suspect since Paypal will always use PP balance first, if you already have $USD in your balance, it will take it straight out of there?

        • neoleo on 18/01/2025 - 15:29
          +1

          Paypal will use our chosen default payment. My default payment is Wise virtual card, then PayPal balance, then my other card. I only chose my Wise virtual card as the default and don't have PayPal balance at all ($0).

          I disable most of my cards and only enable them when I need them ;-) So, no surprise expected lol.

      • neoleo on 18/01/2025 - 15:27

        If you choose your USD PayPal balance as the default, no currency conversion.

        I have USD balance in Wise and use Wise virtual card in Paypal (default payment). No currency conversion too.

    • neonlight on 18/01/2025 - 19:37

          Well I don't think it's a good idea to save a few bucks at the risk of giving out credit card details directly

          • neoleo on 18/01/2025 - 22:17

            @neonlight: That's why everyone should have Wise/Revolut account with Disposable virtual card and/or use Paypal instead. Merchants won't get our real card numbers.

            • geshc on 18/01/2025 - 23:01

              @neoleo: wise charges a fee to convert AUD to USD

              • neoleo on 18/01/2025 - 23:01

                @geshc: Better than Paypal or any banks

                • geshc on 18/01/2025 - 23:17

                  @neoleo: That's true! The rate's cheaper than paypal for sure. If you got a fee free card though, it's pretty similar too.

                  WISE:
                  109.95 USD = 178.26 AUD (including 66c Wise fee)

                  Citi/NAB
                  109.95 USD = 178.40 AUD

                  Btw, do you know if we can cancel the auto subscription right away without it affecting the cashback?

                  • neoleo on 19/01/2025 - 09:59

                    @geshc: Because I usually use Paypal, I can cancel automatic subscription in Paypal. Usually I disable the virtual card or get new virtual cards from Wise. So, no surprise lol.

                    Remember:
                    Bank cards can be charged again for any subscriptions like VPN, Amazon Prime/Music, etc.

                    This is the reason why I use Wise/Revolut. I can have 3 Wise virtual cards, disable or delete/replace and get max 3 new virtual cards again (new numbers). Repeat ;-) No surprise from any subscriptions …

                    Revolut is different (basic card, no monthly fee). Only 1 Disposable virtual card (single use), and the rest are virtual cards that can be charged again for subscription.

      Redid speedtest on home connection, 779/46Mbps

      Ping times for EUW league (as a test):
      NoVPN: 297ms
      Perth PureVPN: 244ms
      Perth NordVPN: 250ms
      Exitlag: 253ms

      Their peering is actually pretty good for lowering ping. (Perth is the best server for EUW usually)

        Tried Wireguard config files, gets over 1Gbps on 10Gbit servers in LA.

            @Flyerone: Wireguard is a newer, faster VPN protocol than OpenVPN

            It appears their Wireguard connections are much faster than their OpenVPN ones

            • Flyerone on 19/01/2025 - 16:58

              @Dyl: Thanks for that explanation.

          Thanks for all the testing @Dyl
          What's the best protocol to use for Nord for the lowest latency?

          I got another 2 year subscription from them again. Is there any provider with a better lag?

          • Dyl on 18/01/2025 - 09:43

            @Schrodinger: Latency is similar with all, but nordlynx or wireguard is considered the fastest protocols (NordLynx is their version of wireguard, built into their app)

            Depending what you're connecting to you have to try essentially all providers to find the lowest, no single provider is the lowest for everything

            • Schrodinger on 18/01/2025 - 10:09

              @Dyl: Thanks! I remember using something that gave better performance between two routers - could have been something older like PPTP.
              I'll give NordLynx a try.

      Thanks for sharing. PIA VPN speeds have gotten pretty crap lately too, getting low to mid 200Mbps local Sydney server and it gets worse from there. Although i seem to get double switching the protocol in client to Wireguard. Will have to keep an eye out for a Nord deal i think.

        There's 98% cashback for NordVPN through Topcashback now.

          Remember it’s 98% on gst free amount, so you still pay like 12%

            @Dyl: Choose a country without Tax added at the bottom of the website before payment. It works for NordVPN.

      Click the ‘+’ next to the order in your earnings page via a desktop or mobile browser and you’ll see the estimated timeframe. The feature is currently not available on the app.

        Sweet thanks for that!

      I can assure you (1) we’re not a scam (we’d not be in business 20 years otherwise), and (2) I’ll gladly investigate such a claim as I find it near impossible it’s correct. Ping me your details and I’ll be as transparent as I can be. Cheers.

    I keep getting this error:

    I have cookies enabled, I don't know why certain sites do this.

    • theSav on 18/01/2025 - 08:47

      Tried a different browser that isn’t Brave?

      • Scalding Coffee Cup on 18/01/2025 - 09:26

        I don't use Brave, I use Chrome. No ad block either.

          See comments above.
          Try tethering to phone, if that doesn't work, try a different browser or the Top Cashback App.
          Safari worked for me, as did their app.

    My transaction from November 24th is confirmed. How long does it take for the money to show up so I can actually withdraw it?

    • Store Reptightarse @ TopCashback AU on 18/01/2025 - 08:44

      Please see here.

      • SeanConnery on 18/01/2025 - 08:55

        It doesn't show the date. It says 'N/A'
