Another great cashback flash sale offer from Shopback. Even better than the popular 20% cashback deal!

  • Champagne, Penfolds & Non-Alcoholic purchases (unless stated otherwise)

Terms & Conditions

Return to ShopBack and clickthrough to BWS every time you are making a new transaction

For those that prefer First Choice Liquor, Shopback is offering 12% cashback (was 3%).

          Same as many others here, rejected today just before 3pm.

          Upon receiving the updates from BWS, your Missing Cashback claim for Order ID XXXXXXX was rejected because your order was not attributed to ShopBack.

          A bit difficult to believe, as I opened the website in IE (no add ons), and only clicked through BWS website. Should have bought items over multiple transactions, rather than just one to mitigate this outcome.

    • Flozza27 on 28/04/2020 - 06:54

      I was also rejected. I would have never purchased these items without the Cashback. I completed the transaction through the ShopBack app on my phone around 4:50pm on the specified day and received the goods. I raised a ticket with ShopBack their reply more or less blamed me for it not being tracked. I sent them another email disputing this I received the same response. This is really pretty poor as obviously something went wrong with their app. ShopBack, could you please have another look at this? This sort of customer service makes it hard to purchase with confidence if you can’t be sure the transaction will be honoured. Come on you have to do better than this!!! I guess I will just write a negative review to make myself feel better about being conned out of my $30 and not getting a bargain. Perhaps a rep could look at this and restore my faith in the system?

    Received tracking email but it is far less than 25% of the order amount. Docked about $9…

    Previously purchased from BWS/SB for a 20% promotion and received the 20% cash back of the total amount inclusive of GST (picked up the order from store).

    Anyone else had this happen to them? Will monitor to see if it's amended…I don't hold much hope.

    • [Deactivated] on 24/04/2020 - 09:21

      If GST is listed separately on the invoice, cashback is applicable only to the subtotal (ex GST). If GST is not listed separately, then you get cashback for the total amount. This appears to be the case for my last few purchases.

      • Samsungnote10 on 24/04/2020 - 09:36

        I can understand this from a technical perspective, but from a legal perspective if you say '25% off' it means 25% the total price. You can't say '25% off* *prices before taxes' in Australia.

    • folktaliesin on 29/04/2020 - 12:18

      It's because the fools were converting to USD. Say you bought $100. You should have gotten $25 cashback. $25 AUD = $16 USD. Then they give you $16 AUD.

      What incompetence. Never using Cashback again, given all the comments.

        If you insist on us directly responding to the rejection email before your team investigates this on a case by case basis, my question is why my initial missing cashback claim didn't warrant a case by case investigation to begin with.

        Does shopback just perform a blanket rejection of all claims first and only investigate people who then kick up a fuss after their first rejection?

    • Chemiluminescence on 27/04/2020 - 17:43

      After writing to Shopback regarding both my denied claims, it's still denied because "I've looked into our partner's system and found the reason your claim was rejected is BWS has determined that your orders were not attributed to ShopBack".

      This is despite following the requirements to meet the cashback exactly as specified.

    Had my Shopback transaction rejected too. Interesting as followed the steps outlined in their rejection email response. To be perfectly honest, I wouldn't have purchased from BWS if it wasn't for the 25% cashback with Shopback (which was untracked when purchased, required a manual claim which was eventually rejected). My neg is for the company, not for the OPs post (as it looked like a fabulous deal).Poor form Shopback. Poor form. :( So what do we do next? Do I just cop it on the chin, or reply to the email? What's everyone else's approach to this?

      Did anybody get a successful claim? Appears not. I too filed a claim which got rejected next day with the usual crap. I have filed another claim, lets see what happens.

      • Oakok on 29/04/2020 - 16:42

        My second application claim and an hour later this response from SB. Hope they resolve this, judging from the complaints on OZB there appears to be a major stuff up.

        Thank you for reaching out to ShopBack!

        I can understand how frustrating this can be.

        I assure you that we are dealing with the team in BWS that handles the ShopBack account.

        I am very sorry for this experience, I can relate to what you are going through and I wished that we can do more to help you with this, however at this point in time, we are not able to credit the amount for the cashback.

        I hope that you and your family are safe during these times and please let us know if we can do anything else to assist you further.
        Regards,

    Shopback seems like a scam, got my claim rejected with the following response. Should have just used cashrewards, at least would have gotten some money back -_-

    While you have made a purchase on BWS via the ShopBack platform, the following scenarios may have disrupted the trackability of your transaction:

    1. Using promo codes that are not eligible for cashback
    2. Opening of web pages (including search sites, social media, store sites, promotional/discount sites) or web browsers after clicking through ShopBack
    3. Clicking through to another page from a banner or an advertisement on the store’s website whilst shopping

    Here are some tips to ensure a successful transaction:
    1. Avoid the above-mentioned scenarios during your next purchase
    2. Clear your shopping cart before clicking through ShopBack
    3. Use a Private Window or Incognito mode on your browser
    4. Please disable Antivirus/cleanup or Adblocker application completely as it may disrupt the tracking of

      @abetastic not always the case….many, myself included, have had the same crap from Cash Rewards…they are both as bad as each other and they both give the same lame scripted response to cover up their ineptitude\corruption.

        corruption

        :/
        Exactly what makes you think there's 'corruption' because your cashback click didn't track?

        Plenty of other people's did.
        You say you've had the issues before with both CR and SB, so perhaps your own setup may be contributing to the issues (browser settings, ad blockers etc etc)

        Either way, calm down on the pitchforks.

          What would you call it when something is promised and then mysteriously disappears with a 'sorry we won't pay you'?…someone got the refund from BWS but it wasn't all of us!!! Maybe all the people who were screwed over have no links to Cashback or Cash Rewards and just want what was offered to them rather than lame excuses and sockpuppeting?

            @Ben Kenobi: So now anyone who got a cash back tracked is sock puppeting?

            Both my orders tracked. Maybe I should ask SB for a job.

          Understand there are people who did get their cashback with ShopBack. However, when the cashback is so big that it materially changes people's purchasing decisions, then having a 50/50 hit rate on tracking is frankly not good enough.

          Imagine David Jones advertising 25% off everything but when you turn up only 50% of the people get the bargain. That is false advertising.

    I'm getting a bit annoyed too.

    So my bws was only tracked at 16%

    And last night one of my dad murphys transactions that didn't track, that I manually submitted, they put it through as 4% when it should have been 8%

    I'll be whinging more on here if they give me some cut and paste BS reply

    My ShopBack dispute was rejected: despite ensuring I clicked from ShopBack straight through to BWS, they're claiming I didn't follow the process.

    I highly doubt anything intentional is taking place, but I question the accuracy of tracking when they rely on third parties (in this case, BWS) to confirm if the transaction took place.

    Agree with all the complaints about Shopback - my purchase didn't get tracked either despite installing the add in and following all instructions. Lodged a missing claim and the customer service did absolutely nothing, rejected my claim despite me providing screenshots of my order and despite my click history.
    Would suggest avoiding shopback for making any purchases and going with a different cashback provider.

    Received my cashback with no issues
