Credit to BA from previous Surfshark posts for this copy/paste.

Expires: July 18, 2020, 11:59PM.
Just $11* after cash back on 3 year plans
Coupon:CASHREW3Y

New Surfshark customers only.

You must click out from this offer on Cashrewards and then select 'Buy Now' from the Surfshark page in order to receive the discounted 36 month plan. If the coupon is not applied automatically, ensure you add it prior to checkout.

Prices are quoted in AUD, and may change depending on US dollar exchange rate.

Offer and increased cashback can be withdrawn at any time without notice.

The AUD amount that tracks to your Cashrewards account may differ to the paid amount due to international exchange rates. Your initial payment is converted to USD, then converted back to AUD when reported to us. The advertised Cashback rate is based on the reported amount, not the paid amount. Cashrewards has no control over this process.

Referenced $11 after cashback is a best estimate figure which depends entirely on current exchange rates and may vary due to the current volatile nature of world currencies. Cashback is calculated and paid on the advertised cost of the plan only (AUD $2.79 per month or approx AUD $101 for 3 years). It will not include any GST, taxes, credit card or PayPal surcharges.

From previous posts: Advice is to pay using a credit card (or debit card) and not PayPal.

    How long does it take to track?

    • 47 on 11/07/2020 - 19:36

      Website says 1 to 7 days.

    • razdi on 11/07/2020 - 21:25

      I got it the last time this deal was on, it was tracked within 24 hours.

      • OzBerghainer on 11/07/2020 - 23:20

        Mine didn't track, had to follow up manually

    • Rimzi on 11/07/2020 - 22:57

      Took 2.5 days for me

    • b0nd on 12/07/2020 - 11:31

      Paid $110.85 using CC. (28 degrees)
      Amount as per Cashrewards $97.68
      Cashback $87.91

      Aprox $22.94 for 3 years for VPN.
      I guess CC and Cashrewards use different rates, hence the difference.

      (Took under 3 hours for the email)

  • 47 on 11/07/2020 - 19:36

    Paying via PayPal adds additional $10, so yes rather pay via credit/debit card as OP suggested.

    How good is surfshark compared to nord and express?

    • denandenan21 on 11/07/2020 - 22:01
      +1

      From personal experience I came from ExpressVPN and got to say that Nord has been running much quicker and better than Express was (I know, weird right?). The US servers are working flawless for me on Netflix. I was hesitant to try it, but am so glad I gave Nord a go. But I'm more then certain that SurfShark would be great as from my long research, couldnt find much but positive reviews for SurfShark! Give either a go, you cannot go wrong either way with that cashback!

    • Tpham92 on 11/07/2020 - 22:29

      They have 7-day trial so give it a try. The only issue sometimes makes me a bit annoyed that is unsteadiness on mobile phone. Occasionally, it drops out for no reason.

      I got it the last time this deal was on, us Netflix works great on the browser and on the app. But if you have an old TV and use a chromecast, then Netflix can't cast to the chromecast.

      • JFFTech on 12/07/2020 - 16:53

        That's right. Netflix works fine on my laptop but when I tried to use Chromecast to cast it into my TV, it didn't work. My TV is new though (Hisense P7). Are there any alternate options?

          +1

          if you configure VPN on your tv, or configure vpn on your home router, it should route your TV traffic through vpn as well (i have not done it myself, but i guess should work unless the app itself has a region identifier)

        • razdi on 12/07/2020 - 20:13
          +1

          It works if you have an Android TV as it natively supports VPN apps. There are a few work around on the official surfshark website. It involves running the VPN app directly on the router. Have a look: https://surfshark.com/blog/chromecast-vpn

          • JFFTech on 12/07/2020 - 20:39

            @razdi: Thanks razdi and maxibon. My TV does support Android and hence I will try configuring directly on the TV first. Cheers.

    • CES2021 on 11/07/2020 - 21:26

      Works well in combo for signing up to Argentina Netflix too.

    • Rimzi on 11/07/2020 - 22:58

      Works fine but honestly I find that they’re more on par compared to how it used to be a few years back

  • CES2021 on 11/07/2020 - 21:11

    I’d vouch for Express. But you can’t go wrong with either one.

  • giventofly on 11/07/2020 - 21:12

      Don't worry mate, it comes with 30 days cancellation. You can cancel that one and sign up for a new one using a different email id.

      • giventofly on 11/07/2020 - 21:58

        Cashback tracked though, would it track with the new ID?

  • akib on 11/07/2020 - 21:32

    Are these vpn providers selling our data to afford such 90% cashback offers?

    • flame143 on 11/07/2020 - 21:42

      I don't think so. It's just part of the promotion I believe. Many more people will use it who wouldn't have used it otherwise and they would promote it automatically to friends and colleagues. I think it's just the marketing strategy.

      • Black Hole on 12/07/2020 - 05:35

        Typical mentality as if this is a Chinese company the answer would be different.

  • GordonR on 11/07/2020 - 22:50

    Why the runaround with paying $100 and recouping $90?

    I don’t understand the point, and usually when I don’t understand the point, I end up out of pocket…

    • cwongtech on 12/07/2020 - 07:40

      It's a way of retaining perception of value

      The effect to the consumer is the same but let's take a look at the below two scenarios:
      - You pay $11 for 3 years
      - You pay $101 for 3 years, and get $90 back after "x amount of days"

      Both, the net cost is $11 to the consumer, but from the VPN vendor's perspective, either they're setting a precedent in consumers' minds their service is only worth $3.67 a year, or $33.67 a year.

      Either the VPN vendors trash their own market (ALL VPNs by just quoting ridiculously low discounted yearly prices), which will train a consumer to expect it to be at that price point, which also limits their future revenue growth, or they provide a limited time discount in the form of a cashback and maintain the perception of a much higher price point (to be fair, $101 for three years is not a lot to ask for, if it truly provides privacy)

    • john_conner on 13/07/2020 - 10:39

      Also the laziness tax.
      Eg. You sign up -90% but forget to cancel subscription for next year = $$$

    • c64 on 18/07/2020 - 13:57

      personally i think people are crazy relying on such a large cashback. if you don't get the cashback you are out of pocket $$$

    Any real reviews? Compared to Nord or PIA?

    • b0nd on 12/07/2020 - 12:04

      I brought surfshark and have PIA which is expiring soon.

      Speed is pretty good - checker local (Syd) and not much of a difference when compared to PIA
      User interface is clean.
      Easy to choose multi hop between two countries.

      Cost after currency conversion, CC fee comes out to be $22.9 for 3 years.

    • Xenocaust on 12/07/2020 - 17:09

      It works for Channel 4 in the UK for me when PIA stopped.

      It works for Netflix US.

      Speeds seem fine.

  • ripoffmerchant on 12/07/2020 - 00:03

    Gonna want to hope that one gets tracked properly… scares me

    • edBARGAIN on 12/07/2020 - 01:31

  • Phoebus on 12/07/2020 - 01:12

  • Plug on 12/07/2020 - 02:05

    I got this last time around. The cash back worked fine. Took a few weeks though. Had Windscribe previously and speeds seem pretty similar. The user interface on Surfshark isn't as user friendly as Windscribe but overall I'm happy with it.

  • carrawa on 12/07/2020 - 03:09

    Would this work with a Xiaomi Mibox 3 and Netflix, BBC, etc or only through the computer?

    • ty2050 on 12/07/2020 - 05:55

      haven't tried myself but i wouild assume it would check to see if you can see the app on the app store on your Mibox.

    • start3r on 12/07/2020 - 08:18

      Yes, there's a native Android TV app. Although speeds currently are woeful. When enabled using fastest Brisbane server, my speed drops from 93mbps down to 9-10mbps.
      VPN Unlimited are similar.
      I think it's an Android TV thing as the app running on my desktop using same server will result in about 80-88mbps.

      Using UK servers on Mixbox for iplayer are even slower so despite the fact it works, the picture is cr@ppy as a result of the bitrate so not worth it.

      Either stick to desktop OR look at something like Getflix (Smart DNS) which, when I had it, worked great for iplayer.

  • Blurayz on 12/07/2020 - 06:35

    Can you only cancel recurring payment by contacting customer support? No direct click option from website? Just want to confirmed.

  • DarthLord on 13/07/2020 - 14:50

    Is there a safer way to pay without using credit card? And some said PayPal will have additional charges too.. also afraid that ANZ card will charge $10 or $20 for overseas transaction.

    Any prepaid debit card from Coles or woolies can be use for this sign up?

    I would keep away from this dodgy provider. Their VPN servers are slow as hell and don't work properly. If you are in for non-US VPNs, it's a hit or miss. Got some videos that are region blocked in YouTube and you can't circumvent it. ( VPN and/or their smartdns).

    I wish I hadn't sign up for 2 years of that crap…
