    don't click away to other sites looking for codes etc

    I feel like this is directly targeting Honey.

    • Store Reptightarse @ Cashrewards on 27/10/2020 - 12:43

      One of them, yes… Honey (and numerous others) are affiliates just like cashback sites. Unfortunately a lot of people don't realise that having the plugin/s active will attribute your purchase to them and not to any cashback site - they get commission for what you buy, we/you get zilch. Then we get complaints of "my purchase didn't track", and claims will be declined as stores will not pay commission to more than one publisher. This is why I felt it necessary to mention plugins. Honey in particular is a no-go zone if you want to make the most from cashback sites. Thanks.

        considering what you've described, Honey (and the likes) can be quite sneaky, especially if it just tests the codes they have as affiliates and don't work, they'll still earn affiliate commission but gives none to the plugin user.

        is the Honey plugin worth downloading ?

          My wife told me how great it was last week after she saved more than $100 on Adidas!
          I then asked her which code Honey had automatically entered into the checkout, and she recited to me the exact same code I'd already told her to use from Ozbargain!

          Yeah. It's worth having if Ozbargain doesn't show a code and you can't guess any. I have a separate browser with no plug ins I only use for cashrewards and shopback so have no tracking issues.

        I’ve started reading it, about 1/2 way through. Not sure if I like it. I don’t really like how it jumps around from one place to another

  • AussieDaddy on 27/10/2020 - 13:22

    Hi TA, can you please clarify this part:

    irrespective of the number of transactions made. 

    That still means the overall cashback will be $10 even if you make multiple transactions that are over $20? Tia

    • Store Reptightarse @ Cashrewards on 27/10/2020 - 13:28
      +3

      That's correct. The term is there for safety in case you want to go back and buy another book if you haven't hit the $10 cap on the previous one. Always click out of Cashrewards again for subsequent transactions to ensure tracking. Hope this helps :)

    Does this work with Book Depository pre-orders?

    • mfletch on 27/10/2020 - 14:23

      It did for me. Confirmation email from Cashrewards:

      This will now appear in your Cashrewards account as ‘Pending’.
      Once Book Depository confirms your cashback, it will be added to your available rewards. This can take anywhere from one to 100 days.

  • HolyFosh on 27/10/2020 - 13:29

    Grabbed a book, now to hope it tracks!

  • mrmeowgi on 27/10/2020 - 14:23

    i still remember buying an osrs blue partyhat keychain from etsy for $40 haha. totally worth.

  • nathand on 27/10/2020 - 14:32

    Last promotion they sent via email one was for T2 20% and the email said capped at $20, then when you click through it was actually $15.

    Then they didn't track even though I ordered through the app, there was an "Unfortunately, T2 Tea has made us aware of an issue with order reporting during this period and your purchase may not have tracked to your Cashrewards account."

    They asked me to "reply and ATTACH my order confirmation email" which I did, downloaded email as an EML and replied. No mention of format.

    Then they say they can't open EMLs and I need to convert to PDF or JPG and send back.

    Took all of 30 seconds to find and convert using an online EML to PDF converter.

    Does Cashrewards have a history of creating hurdles for these special cashbacks?

    Because this is what it seems like.

  • ilovefullprice on 27/10/2020 - 14:41

    Totally random question for everyone, just wanted to know if have everyone here started to use Etsy, and if so how was the experience like?

    • damion on 27/10/2020 - 14:42

      I presume you mean for selling things, and not just buying?

      One of my friends has just abandoned the platform due to increasing fees.

      • ilovefullprice on 27/10/2020 - 14:44

    Can be a good deal but always check Amazon AU prices first because I often find Amazon prices cheaper than BookDepository even after 50% discount.

    • Bargin Boy on 27/10/2020 - 16:17

      Please don't. The transaction will commission to Mastercard and not Cashrewards. Your cashback will either not track, or will later be declined. As per the OP:

      Cashback is ineligible when using codes not listed on Cashrewards.

  • virhlpool on 27/10/2020 - 17:18

    Hey TA, if we use 'Checkout with Paypal' on BD website, the txn will still be eligible for cashback.. right?

    I haven't shopped on BookDepository for a while, but there current prices are outrageous. They are all pretty much RRP - some even appear to be more than RRP.

    • virhlpool on 27/10/2020 - 23:50

      True.. I had hard time finding books which had the same (or only slightly more) price on BD as that on Amazon to make the deal even worth it.

    • BakerBen91 on 27/10/2020 - 23:58
