      • Having trouble too with a new account. I initially put in aussie address though, thought this may be the issue…

  • So there is uber eats, Woolworths, eBay, PayPal,visa gift cards… anything else that I may need?

    • Jb hi fi?

  • +1

    make sure your uk ebay primary adress is same as paypal and region set to uk. If this still fail, then use a different ip. e.g if you are using wifi then switch to mobile data or vice versa

  • Tried many times, give up

  • -1

    No problem at all with payment, just paid 10 orders of $800gc
    Total $8k

    If there is problem, you are having bad operation

    • Can you use code to buy more than 5 wish cards?

      • I don't know I ordered 4 each order.

        • wow how many paypal accounts do you have?

          • -2

            @hihi: Didn’t you see the photo ? Only one PayPal account

        • just wondering did you use one ebay account or multiple accounts?

  • PayPal left a positive feedback on my eBay UK but hasn't e-mailed me the cards yet..lol..

    • Haha that was fun

  • thanks op, got 5

  • When I checked out it said "to buy a gift card, yo need an eBay and Paypal account"
    I have already login my ebay and paypal account

    • +1

      Check all the messages from the first page and also the instruction on the main post

  • Keep telling me on eBay that I need eBay and PayPal account what’s fix for it

    • Check main instruction

    • fix is that u read the posts..

    • Noop not working

  • Thanks OP.

    Created 3 new eBay UK accounts (my last account was suspended after a similar 10% promotion).

    I received $900 worth of eBay GC's within 8 mins of the first order, but nothing yet for the 2 other orders which were placed shortly after the first. My PayPal account has been deducted so I have no idea what's going on.

    • just gotta wait i suppose..i havent received mine either.

  • +1

    I have been fiddling with this for 3 hrs.. tried 3 new ebay uk accounts. new paypal accounts. with my android phone and my ipad. no luck

    the cart always shows can not be sent to your address. but it's a new uk account with a uk address. only the paypal account has AU address

    if I do buy it now, it would not pass paypal. after all the credentials checks on ebay still wouldn't budge. it shows "you need an ebay account and a paypal account for this purchase".

    • To fix that problem, you need to change your delivery address on your eBay UK to your Australian address as PayPal Digital Gifts require an Australian address for purchases.

      • +1

        that doesn't fix the problem mate, maybe its just a new account thing.

      • Here is what i did

        1. use a computer to goto ebay.co.uk setup a new account with one uk address as primary and one au address as 2nd. open the link here so the account would leave a history (sorry i can find the exact item on the app. )

        2. goto ebay mobile app, login with the new account. the ebay digital card will be displayed in "your recently viewed items". click and order

        3. change the primary address to Australian

        4. apply code and pay with paypal

        5. the app returned from paypal and show "can't not process your payment, please check…" Tried CC with AMEX and Master no luck

        • Have you set Country/region under Settings to UK? I had no problem with a new ebay account.

        • Just to add to @elvislj's steps, one additional step I did was go to Settings -> Country and unselect "Automatically detect". That way I can manually select UK as the country to make the deal valid, but set an Australian delivery address to make the product/delivery valid.

        • I'm having this exact issue.

      • I having the same problem. Primary address UK and shipping address AU. Was able to apply code, but can't pay. Get erroe message "can't process your payment please check details including billing address". Tried paypal and credit card. Not working. I did use AU address as billing address. What did I do wrong?

    • I have tried the ultimate steps this morning using a vpn to UK, set up a UK paypal account.

      So everything is UK except the Australian delivery address

      the app just doesn't let me pass the payment..

  • Thanks OP. Finally got PayPal working after trying multiple times over 30 minutes. Got $800 eBay gift cards for $720.

    • Any tips for those who still can't get this working?

      • Tried turning off GPS?

  • Ordered my eBay GCs at 9, been 2 hrs and still haven't got them yet :(

    • I got mine within minutes?

    • Same here. Ordered before going to sleep, still haven't got them

      • Yeah, woke up this morning expecting them to be in inbox. Nothing still

    • GCs just came through, little over 12 hrs waiting. Guess we just have to wait it out.

  • Now won't let me use PayPal, I assume it's triggered some login limit.

  • +1

    Took more than 30 minutes for PayPal to work. Got the gift cards in 7 minutes after that. Thanks OP.

  • LOL it won't even give me a proper error. After applying voucher and press pay it's just a box with … and order did not go through. Tried both paypal and credit card.

    • same here for the wish and woolworths gift cards. Ebay gift cards went through earlier.

  • +1

    Next deal will be 15% and we’ll get more gift cards

  • Will there be any international transaction fee?

    • +1

      eBay charges in AUD, but depends on your credit card.

  • How do you open the link in the ebay app? or what key words to search in the app? I can view in a browser but since it has to be purchased via the app, I tried searching the exact words in the title but still couldn't find it.

    • Use PC login and save them in Chat, and then use mobile to login in the app to check out with the code.

      • oh, you can do that? I was under the impression that you have to do it all in the app, like Cash Rewards where they want you to start with an empty cart. I'll try that. Thanks!

    • Click on the link via mobile, add to cart, the mobile page will show a banner/link at the top to view it on the app.

      • Thanks. That works too.

  • Some tips that may help, worked for me when I kept getting errors (some may seem obvious/repeated above), but:

    1. Make sure you’re using the eBay app
    2. Use a UK eBay account
    3. Set an Australian postal address
    4. My old eBay uk account defaulted to Australia via “auto-detect” - manually change this back to UK.

    Code worked for Wish gift cards 👌🏼

    • Keep trying, I eventually got it

      • +1

        Yep it worked!

        • +1

          Sorry I was confirming it for others. I'm glad we both got there 👍

      • How long have you tried? D id you pay bt credit card or paypal when eventually worked?

    • I have done all you have mentioned. Even tried to logout and turned off the phone. Then turn on the phone and login. Still can't pay.

  • Error: To buy a gift card, you need an eBay and PayPal account - on desktop.
    The item can't be sent to your postage address - on app.
    I moved here from the UK so using the same account as I did back then with my old home address. WOndering if this is worth the extra 5% now.

    Edit: Changed my address to oz and now a new error: this code can't be applied to your order.

    • Have you tried setting your delivery address as an Aussie one and the separate “country” section set as UK?

      • Yes, this is exactly how I've set it up. Now I signed out and cannot sign back in as it claims to have sent me an email to unlock my account. Aaargh.

    • I kept getting both those errors, I eventually got there

      • Yes, i'm back in, the only thing stopping me now is the voucher code on my phone: this code can't be applied to your order; just doing the woolies cards for 5 x $500.

        • Have you change your eBay app settings to UK?
          Under eBay app settings, choose Menu on top left corner > Settings. Turn off auto detect, and manually choose United Kingdom.

        • Jebus, $2500 at Woolworths!

        • Where is the $500 gc I didn’t see any

          • @Kawaii: I finally made a new account, with my uk address and phone number. Added to cart. Added my oz address. Went to checkout. Worked in the end. $810 poorer now. :)

  • Hmm first time I haven't received within 10 mins. Been a few hours now, a bit concerning

    • Same here, hopefully they will send out soon

  • No luck with my previous ukbay account. New account and even that took repeated efforts but got there in the end. Thanks op

    • +1

      Teach us!

      • Try everything. Swapping UK to AU address, enter code even with an error, in and out of basket.

        • PayPal but didn't save details/ link account

        • i got it working once but now receive the error " something went wrong, please try to check out again"

  • A really silly question, but can you get an eBay gift card and use it to buy a different gift card off eBay?

    • no you cannot

      • In this case it is impossible because eBay Australia gift cards can be used only on eBay Australia.
        If I had ebay UK gift cards, I would give them a go.

    • +6

      Why the down vote, guys? Question seems legit.
      The answer is no, you can't use a gift card to pay for another gift card.

      • Thanks everyone!

        Wasn't sure if it was like woolies and you can't buy any other gift card with it or being that it's a marketplace and other people/companies sell gift cards if it could actually be used.

        Would of been good if it could of been done

    • +1

      It was actually possible a long time ago. Even more - you could use a discount coupon and pay with a gift card.

  • So can you get giftcards for ebay australia here ? If so whats the method?

  • Thanks doweyy. Bit of fiddling but got it to work in the end!

  • +1

    There's still some $100 visa cards left from officeworks https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Eftpos-Gift-Card-100/323757091737

      Are these for booking hotels with the mistress?

    • Thanks for sharing this link! Nabbed 4

    • How do you find this in the app? Opens fine in browser but can't find that item in the app using search function… not even using item number

      Nevermind found the answer.

      Changed store to AU, looked up the item and visited the page, then switched back to UK and then it appears in the "recent items" list.

      EDIT: but what's the point though? There's a $6.95 fee making it only 3.05% off?

      Ah, $200 cards, out of stock.

  • can't see cashback via cashreward app.

  • +2

    It keeps saying 'We can't process your payment. Please select a different payment method or check your payment details.' I have tried PayPal and credit cards several times. Still can't complete the payment.

  • +1

    Wonder why eBay Australia don't allow this? It would save a lot of fiddling about. Is there some draconian law that is stopping them?

  • Finally got it to work. A few Woolies vouchers and a few ebay vouchers. Cheers

  • No good. Went all the way to purchase, then copped this, which stopped the transaction.
