I just received this promotional letter on my mailbox and it seems that it's a good promotional offer from ING.

Things you should know:

The Wave and Save 5% rebate offer is available from 1 October 2012 to 30 June 2013 (“Offer Period”) to all existing Orange Everyday customers (including joint account holders) who request to update to a Visa payWave card and the first 30,000 new ING DIRECT Orange Everyday customers who activate their payWave enabled Visa Debit card during the Offer Period (“Eligible Customers”). The 5% rebate applies on all contactless purchases made by Eligible Customers during the Offer Period on purchase amounts of up to AUD $99.99. The 5% rebate will be made into the Orange Everyday account immediately after transaction settlement.

    I didn't know that they can track transactions by contactless and by chip/swipe.

      they know when you buy toilet paper..

    • bonezAU on 04/10/2012 - 17:51

      They can, and the reason ING is encouraging customers to use contactless is because the credit card transaction rate that the retailer gets charged is higher than if you put your card in the machine and press credit.

      The bank gets richer!

      I always use savings with my debit card… I hate it when I press credit because it takes a couple of days to finalise and you end up with a different available funds balance and current balance.

      • delfredo on 05/10/2012 - 11:10

        You run the risk of others in the queue seeing your PIN as you key it in (unless you cover the keypad tightly), if you press savings/cheque. Paywave mitigates that.

        • [Deactivated] on 08/10/2012 - 22:36

          So that when they steal your credit card they don't need your pin?

        • A Banana4scale on 09/10/2012 - 19:35

          lol

        • INFIDEL on 09/10/2012 - 21:36

          No PIN is required with ordinary credit card at some stores, for purchases below a certain value. Had my bank ring me when I made 3 low value (no PIN required) purchases in Woolies within 15 minutes - as it showed as suspicious activity. So does not seem much more risk with PayWave.

          This is my 3rd PayWave enabled Debit card, and I still have not used PayWave. Most stores I use do not (yet) have the equipment, & the only store that did have it - I was buying over $100.

        • frozensolid on 10/10/2012 - 00:12

          That's some good security, Bruce. Do you mind if I ask what financial institution you bank with? :P I'm not trying to steal your identity…I promise!

        • INFIDEL on 10/10/2012 - 08:30

          Which Bank - Commonwealth. They rang within 10 minutes of my third purchase.

  • dy4me on 03/10/2012 - 17:32

    Sounds too good to be true?

  • tanoshiiki on 03/10/2012 - 17:40

    Maximum rebate would be $4.99.

    ING are always great at these sort of promotions. They give me 50c everytime I get $200 out via EFTPOS!

    I have this account, but I don't yet have the payWave card yet (only recently introduced by ING). Might have to give them a call for me to send a payWave card to me!

    • simprosimple on 03/10/2012 - 17:45

      u can cash out via EFTPOS !!!

      so u can keep getting 50csssssss for free

    • delfredo on 03/10/2012 - 17:45
      +2

      I think it's on every contactless purchase of under $100. So yes, maximum rebate per eligible purchase is $4.99 but your total rebate received could be unlimited.

      • tanoshiiki on 03/10/2012 - 17:58
        +1

        Yeah, I forgot to write per transaction. Always got to be careful on OzB….

        Yes, you could keep getting 50c for free up to your daily withdrawal limit, which I can't remember off the top of my head what it is now. You might annoy customers in the check-out line though by doing x times of transactions… Only recommended in self check-out!

        • samehada on 04/10/2012 - 02:18
          +2

          spot on ;) Woolies self checkout has Cash Withdrawal option without having to buy anything. Daily cash withdrawal limit is about $2200 so the max you can get is $5.5 x 2 account = $11/day lolz…

        • gstfree on 04/10/2012 - 07:18

          What you get may deem taxable if you keep doing this.

        • bajillionaire on 04/10/2012 - 09:04

          Do you have to actually scan anything through to be able to use the cash withdrawl option? Or can you use the checkout just like at ATM (more or less)?

        • c64 on 04/10/2012 - 10:22

          no need to purchase anything

        • joannatan on 04/10/2012 - 11:01

          the t&c said " The 5% rebate applies on all contactless purchases made by Eligible Customers during the Offer Period on purchase amounts of up to AUD $99.99"

          it is purchase not cash withdrawal transaction. we can try and see it first. it is good if it is working, I will put $5k on the account and do 50 withdrawal a day and deposit back to the bank and transfer to ing, do it till next june next year as my additional income :)

        • joannatan on 04/10/2012 - 11:02

          if ing show on the statement as interest then yes or if you honestly declare to ato then yes, if none of the events happen then ahm :)

        • c64 on 04/10/2012 - 11:35
          +2

          contactless = paywave = credit transaction. you can't get cash out. you need to enter a pin for eftpos to get cash out.

        • c64 on 04/10/2012 - 11:37

          cash out bonuses don't appear in the interest statement. i think they are taxable income.

          i don't think the rebates will appear as interest either. i don't think the rebates are taxable.

          but i am not a tax professional, you should seek professional advice.

  • Turd on 03/10/2012 - 17:41

    What is the max you can get back?

    Can you do 1000 x $99.99 transactions and get back 5%?

    • Holysmoke on 03/10/2012 - 17:45

      Seems like it - there no limitation on total rebates in the T&C's. The Only limit is $5,000 per day, per account using the VISA debit card.

      • IVI on 03/10/2012 - 23:35

        Can't you increase the daily limit?

        Of course, ING Direct lets you have 2 Visa debit cards…

  • simprosimple on 03/10/2012 - 17:42
    +1

    The 5% rebate amounts of up to AUD $99.99

    less than $5 max

    • A Banana4scale on 03/10/2012 - 17:45

      it will add up depending on how much your purchase using the card. If you spend $1000 split in 10 purchases, then you get $49 back.

    • annarchon on 03/10/2012 - 18:08
      +2

      Its only 5% each time, but imagine the number of times you will visit Coles in a 6 month period. And imagine getting 5% off (and for me) every single purchase during that time. Not to mention other places that take the paywave….

      • Coops1 on 03/10/2012 - 21:25
        +2

        but, thats why we buy Coles cards and Wish cards at 5% off……all the time. This is still a great deal but :)

        • IVI on 03/10/2012 - 23:38

          So, -keep- buying them, just be sure to use your Wave & Save card… double savings!

        • samehada on 04/10/2012 - 02:19

          you can't, this seems to apply to payWave transactions only not online transaction :(

      • IVI on 03/10/2012 - 23:37

        Coles staff get similar discounts… but we don't have to work at Coles, for same discount (for some months, at least…)

    • c64 on 03/10/2012 - 18:11

      just get the checkout operator to do the groceries as multiple $99 transactions

      • samehada on 04/10/2012 - 02:20

        why not split it up per every $30 so you get multiple fuel vouchers :)

          or use self-serve checkouts (if available) where you make the decisions.

  • abc on 03/10/2012 - 17:44

    It would be good to do a comparison between this and an existing rewards credit card, where you would forgo the minimum $1=1 point bonus and get 5% back instead.

    The ING might come out better if you have many smaller transactions?

    • Holysmoke on 03/10/2012 - 17:49
      +1

      This IS way better than credit card rewards which range between 0.5% to 2% cashback (if you convert points).

      • delfredo on 03/10/2012 - 17:52
        +1

        Yes subject to the following limitations:
        - contactless purchase (can't use for online purchases)
        - purchase transaction amount is under $100

      • ShortyX on 03/10/2012 - 20:54
        +1

        This IS way better than credit card rewards which range between 0.5% to 2% cashback (if you convert points).

        Most range around 0.5%. Would be interested to know if you've found one that gives 2% return.

        • SomeGuyOnOzB on 22/11/2012 - 14:27

          I think that's if you accrue and convert for long distance international flights -> 2% return

    • IVI on 03/10/2012 - 23:44

    Just remember that contactless payments have a minimum time between use. For example, I cannot use my PayPass mastercard twice at mcdonalds within 30mins. If I try and use contactless to pay a second time, the card is rejected and I have to insert it.

    • mirovich on 03/10/2012 - 20:19

    • doperst on 03/10/2012 - 20:33
      +2

      This is not entirely true. Contactless payments have other limits (number of consecutive transactions before fallback to chip, maximum cumulative amount ect.) Also some banks require a timeout (few minutes) between two transactions made for the same amount at the same merchant.
      But there is no such thing as minimum time between contactless thansactions.
      Thust me, chip and contactless payments was my job for several years. :)
