    Anyone know what sort of items are available for kogan points and how much? 2 points sounds good but it could be worthless post conversion

        Applying for a Credit Card isn't a 'black mark' on your credit history - usually the opposite!
        As long as you are approved… :)

        • wellzi on 03/01/2020 - 12:55

          Applying for a credit card is indeed a 'mark' on your credit history, whether it's black or not is another story!

          I presently have 11 'enquiries', and subsequently 11 'accounts' (i.e. approved applications).
          Only 2 of those accounts are actually 'open' though, the rest are 'closed'. Regardless, they are accounts that remain on my profile for 5 years.

          Now… back in August, I did have a score in the mid 700's, if we're going by Finder.com. It's now dropped to 625.

          I've already bought a house, etc. so I'm not particularly worried if my score is tarnished a little for the thousands I've made in CC offers.

          +5

          he was referring the initial 500 spend to be worthwhile, upon getting the card after approval

          the 500 kogan credit won't matter, as kogan seasonal sales not always that great,
          but you can always spend that 500 kogan credit on usual kogan 144hz monitors or kogan TV , or kogan yearly mobile recharge

          • b-radicool on 29/11/2019 - 13:46

            @dcep: Correct phunkydude, that's what I was referring to.

  • krisspy on 29/11/2019 - 09:17

    Is CTP insurance counted as government? Eg mine is with GIO and the payments normally go to GIO

    • spaceflight on 29/11/2019 - 09:23

      Is GIO a government department or a private company?

      • krisspy on 29/11/2019 - 09:43

        spend with certain merchants may be characterised as
        spend with a government related entity and therefore not
        an Eligible Transaction, even if that merchant is not in fact
        a government related entity.

        • spaceflight on 29/11/2019 - 11:42

          That's merchants like Australia Post.

      Seems like a no brainer! Almost like a free handout!

    • virhlpool on 01/12/2019 - 15:53

      If you need to buy something worth $500 on Kogan, then it makes sense.

      • Danstar on 01/12/2019 - 17:12

        Or if you don’t need anything, but just spend 500 like you would normally and basically get 500 back for free to Use at Kogan

      • HighAndDry on 05/12/2019 - 13:16

        Technically you'd need to be wanting to spend $1,000 Kogan for maximum utility.

        • Danstar on 05/12/2019 - 13:21
          +4

          How so? Spend $500 on petrol, groceries, etc. as you normally would. And get a free $500 to spend at Kogan.

          Money for jam…or a 4K UHD Kogan branded TV

      Keep in mind the markup on kogan stuff would be significant, especially their house brand stuff

      • hayfeverman on 10/12/2019 - 21:33

        I couldn't find anything about the credit being limited to their Kogan brand products. Couldn't you use it to buy their dropshipped phone products?

        • Fancydancer on 10/12/2019 - 21:39
          +1

          Yes

        • Jackson on 10/12/2019 - 23:04

          True, but people are going to just buy what they want or need, on balance a sizeable amount of claims will be on Logan stuff, even if it's not the final price has a component that goes to Kogan. If only Kogan stuff was bought, it could be potentially a 70% mark up. So 130 bucks isn't a huge amount for Ruslan to give away for a credit card customer. Even if he is only making 20%, that's 400. On balance it will end up somewhere in between.

          • IdiotSandwich on 14/01/2020 - 00:17

            @Jackson: Plus Kogan gets a kickback from citigroup:

            Citigroup may pay Kogan Australia Pty Limited ABN 53 152 570 351 a commission of up to $200, depending on where you apply and when you agree to be bound by these terms for the introduction of this credit contract, and other commissions which are currently not ascertainable.

            Kogan wouldn't be doing this if there wasn't something in it for them. Lure you in with the $500 of spend. Buy a Kogan brand TV for $499. Real value $150 (guess). Kogan gets the commission of up to $200 from Citigroup. Kogan is $50 ahead and they get you too spend more in their store.

            Would be interesting to know what the other commissions which are not currently ascertainable are.

            Got nothing against this deal, I applied for it as well and got approved.

            • Jackson on 14/01/2020 - 00:30

              @IdiotSandwich: Yeah me neither, at the end of the day I am looking at $500 to spend at their store by taking out a different piece of plastic from my wallet when paying for things I was already going to buy. A worthy deal IMO and clearly a lot of people share this sentiment.

          Some people have 20 + cards. Keep the card if it costs you nothing. Check your credit score if you're that paranoid

          • Kill Joy on 18/12/2019 - 10:39

            @aoe111: Just a reminder that each card reduces the amount you can borrow by 3 times the cards limit. So remember to cancel all your cards before going to the bank for a loan.

    • unnamed86 on 29/11/2019 - 09:48

      Probably more of, it will take a hit on your credit history if you're rejected.

      And it will have an impact on loan application as the credit limit is considered in getting loans.

      • andrewsaws on 29/11/2019 - 09:54

    I have been watching my credit score for a few years on creditsavvy and I know it dipped for a fair while when I applied for a CBA credit card. I am contemplating signing up for this card and either cancelling it after I get the voucher, or cancelling the CBA card and keeping this one.
    I am assuming it will dip my score again, which is understandable. I am just wondering if this is something that could potentially impact a possible future home loan app or anything of the like?

    You can spend the $500 on non-Kogan products in order to get the credit
