PLAYAPP

Greetings everyone, just spotted this over at HUKD.

You can get 10% off sitewide @ eBay UK via App and works on gift cards!


eBay Gift Card
Woolworths Wish Card
Paypal Digital Gifts Store


Instructions:

  1. Open the eBay app and log in to your eBay UK account.
  2. Go to the 3 lines at the top left and go to Settings.
  3. Go to Country/Region and change your country to UK
  4. Add item to cart and apply the coupon "PLAYAPP"

You will need to make a new account if you don't have an eBay UK account yet. And then put a UK address as your primary address when you sign up and change it to Australia afterwards to be able to add the gift cards to cart.

Coupon Terms and Conditions thanks to Nismo


Can also use Cashrewards to possibly get a further 0.75% back, however seems to exclude gift cards.


As always, enjoy!

    Thank doweyy, when do you think they will do a big sitewide discount on Ebay Au? They have been really tight lately

      • +1

        Sitewide 15%? I missed it

          • +3

            @asa79: 15% plus $60 shopback?
            I missed that :-(

    • Not 100% sure, I hope they bring back a sitewide sale soon :)

    • "Tight" barely begins to describe it.

      As to the gymnastics and contortions required to make this discount work — PASS, I've got a life.

  • +15

    Bah, I can never get the overseas account thing to work

    • +1

      Agreed absolute nightmare. Pass

    • After creating a new eBay UK account with a random UK address, I had to then use the desktop site to change my postal address to my actual Australian address and link my PayPal account. These steps can both be done by going to 'MyEbay' > 'Account' tab. Then follow OPs instructions as normal. Hope this helps!

  • Do I have to make a new ebay account to use this offer? Can't I just change the country to UK?

  • The code can't be applied to your order

    • +2

      Did you change your country in the app to the UK?

      • Thanks, I thought using UK account will automatically use UK as country.
        Now, code works. However how come buying 1000 only takes $89.8 off? Shouldn't be $100?

        • +4

          Read title - $89.78 AUD Max Discount

          • @reservin: Yes, got it. Bought 3 $250 to get 10% off

        • same here!

          edit: got it !!

        • +2

          buy $900 to get max discount

          3X 250 , 1x 100 1x50 = $900

          • +2

            @Being Askhole: 4 x 200 + 1 x 100

            • +3

              @go2home: 3$250 + 1$100 <<< I did this. But then I realised that it is possible to make 2 transactions, one with 3$250 and the other with 2$250

              • @Averell: Can you please share the link to 250$ eBay gift card? I am only getting 200$ gift card option from ops link.

                • +2

                  @PPrem: eBay max $200 per card

                  Wish max $250 per card

              • @Averell: i didnt know it was 3 codes per account,

                will know for next time!
                thanks!

  • Thank you.

  • +3

    Thanks! Bought $500 worth of eBay gift card.

    My eBay UK account is quickly becoming gift cards buying tool!

    • Same here!

  • Thanks op.

  • +1

    I have logged into the app and added paypal but still says there is a problem and that i need ebay and paypal account

    • im getting that msg as well!

      • +1

        Add gift card and change address to AU again then u can pay.

        • legend! Worked!! thanks

          ended up changing my adress, from AU to UK to AU to get it to work

          • @Samsungnote10: miss the boat, not working now..

            • @anonymous12345: I just tried again and it worked,

              I think maybe new accounts it doesnt work,

              my new account didnt work,

              old one seemed to work

              • @Samsungnote10: Do I need to change my address aside from region?

                • @anonymous12345: just tinker up and back between UK and AU

                  it supposed to be region: UK
                  postal address: AU

                  but I found that with my old account, I toggle between the AU and UK,
                  and eventually it worked,

                  however, my new account that I set up last night, nothing worked

                  someone mentioned, amex and paypal dont work, but they worked for my old account,

        • I tried this way, but still can't complete the payment. Quite confused now.

          • +1

            @JesseZ: yeah same, paypal won't let me add as a payment. Everything else is working except the paypal part…

            • @RetroMetro: looks like they blocked it

  • I suppose there is a limit of 3 transactions per account…

    • +2

      And 5 gift cards per account

  • +1

    Thanks OP. Worked great. Restocked on eBay giftcards again

  • +1

    Thanks OP, purchased $900 worth of giftcards for $810.20

    • Same, 10% off minus 20 cents.

      Edit: Got them already!

      • Yeh, I thought it was only 1 transaction but I could've saved 20c

  • +2

    Cheers, Did two transactions cause I couldn't add it to cart, and had to use the buy now function.

  • Thanks OP!

  • +1

    Thank you OP, bought $800 visa cards

    • What are the visa cards?

        • bummer just sold out,

          is there anywhere else you can get them with this discount?

        • anyone get it shipped? I got SMS from +61458729725 [Paypal] to ask me to confirm the purchase. Anyone got this SMS?
          I chated with paypay and they said they didn't send such SMS

          • @hongd: I received the same text as well from the same number.

            • @valra: Did you reply the sms? I didn't, but still today I got the parcel.

      • You can use them anywhere (fuel, groceries, shopping and more)

      • Note it says:

        1. Cannot be used online.
        2. No value until activated at the register (whatever that means).
        • +5

          Because they are eftpos cards.

          • @Coops1: Not sure why you get neg, put it back up

    • Wouldnt you lose money at $25 postage and $206 for the item?

      • It was free shipping, but yes the extra $6 does lower the discount a little bit.

  • thx champ stocked up again

  • +1

    Was hoping for 15% like the powpow code

  • +1

    IMO it's too risky to do this to save $89 while ebay suspending accounts front and centre. Plus never do this if you have gift cards loaded in any of your ebay accounts.

    • Why is that mate?

      • I am guessing when they freeze your account any balance within it is also frozen forever.

        • hum fair enough, thank you

  • how do I log into ebay uk app? get a invalid request message. I think it is trying to log into ebay australia app

    • Change your country location in settings

    • -1

      You might need to install a free VPN app on the phone, then change your location to UK. If you have Android 'Tunnelbear' is easy to use. But I'd read the message a few up by Sharp first if I were you.

      • seems to give same message even when change country in ebay app

        • I'd have to be sitting watching to know what's going on… Maybe uninstall the app, reinstall the UK version (if there is one). If not, then install the ebay app AFTER changing country using a VPN. And you probably need a new ebay account with UK address as others have said earlier/above - then change to AU address later. But again, make sure you understand you could lose ALL your ebay accounts doing this. (Others have.)

      • have an android and gave same message after changed

  • +1

    I am trying to purchase Wish gift card and after confirming the payment I am getting a pop-up message as below:

    Attention!

    Does anybody experiencing this issue?
    FYI - I have an existing UK account, changed app settings as per OP and have bought gift cards before

    • I'm getting the same problem :/

      • I think our account might have been flagged

    • I got the same problem, I have just made one purchase previously.

    • Got the same message. Used this account successfully last time around.
      Also after a few tries it asked me to verify my paypal details and then for some reason removed paypal payment option altogether, and adding a credit card doesn't work either.

    • +3

      I wonder if the Attention! message is this one and eBay's App is simply unable to display it for one reason or another (too large?).

      • Mate you are a legend, worked for me once I verified my mobile number
        Thanks heaps

      • +1

        Worked for me as well, cheers mate :D

  • Have followed OP instructions and when I login to PayPal to pay I get We can't process your payment. Please select a different payment method or check your payment details including your billing address. Do I need my PayPal address to be something specific other than my actual address in Aus?

    • Had to change my ebay address to paypal address, can't just be anywhere in Aus

    • Split into multiple transactions if multiple types of cards (remember 3 max & minimum per order). Dunno why but worked for me.

      • Got the same issue when trying to get $750 worth of WWS gift card.

        Tried a few different options including changing to credit card payment but no luck.

        End up buying $500 worth and both paypal and ebay app were happy.

  • I’ve got “This code can’t be applied to your order” error message. ;(

    • +1

      Have you changed your country to the UK?

      • On the ebay app, yes, I changed country to UK. But do I need to change address under PayPal?

        • Nah shouldnt have to. Make sure your postage address is set back to australia but your country/region is the uk. Should work

  • +1

    Worked for me. Installed eBay app, logged in with UK eBay account, set region to UK, bought Wish Cards, used Australian Paypal. All good.

    • Is there any foreign transaction fees?

      • None on Amex

      • Nope, charged in Australian dollars with Australian Paypal account on Australian Amex.

  • Thanks, got 3x 250 Woolworths cards

  • HELP! Got this error code "This code can’t be applied to your order"

    • +1

      Change your region to UK in setting.

      • yep did that already.

        • Change address to AU again mate
