$3 Bonus Cashback on Gift Cards (TCN Online Gift Card 5% (Redeem eBay Gift Card) @ ShopBack (App Required)

1752

Just saw this in the Shopback email. Look for the deal under "Challenges" in the Shopback app. No promo code required.

Purchase the ebay gift card via the TCN Online Card = $3 bonus plus $2.50 normal cashback = $5.50 cashback on $50 gift card. 11% isn't too shabby!

Or purchase a $5 JB Hifi gift card = $3 bonus plus $0.15 normal cashback = $3.15 (63%).

I've purchased a few cards already and had no issues. The cashback for gift cards tracks almost instantly and is redeemable within a couple of days. Cashback that is redeemable can be used to purchase gift cards.

Info from the previous $2 bonus deal -

  • You can pay for Gift Cards by using your existing Cashback balance and/or an Australian issued debit/credit card (Mastercard/Visa only). Please note that we do not store or collect card information; all payment-related information is stored in a secure vault by our PCI DSS-compliant security partner.

  • How’s that Rebel gift card deal going?

  • Thanks got a $50 TCN card, you're right 11% isn't shabby!

  • None of these work for Amazon, right?

  • -8

    Oh, Shopback? Yeah, nah

    • -1

      Need that Anti-Shill armour bruh

      +10 evasion of negs, +100 accuracy against 50 cent accounts.

      • -2

        If I see a ShopBack spam here I will neg it even if, like today, the neg is revoked by the platform.

        OzBargainers get what they deserve supporting a company with some super-shady, behaviour.

        The parallels with the current state of US politics are breath-taking, really.

        The thing I find offensive is OzBargain's ongoing tacit support of these muppets.

        • +2

          The entire problem is if we negative vote one company actually honest and transparent about their breach, we should neg every company that has ever had a breach or violation of trust/safety/security.

          That being said, I got a $5 JB Gift card as I could use my cashback to pay for it and not my card.

          • @pennypincher98: You don't get it. They were not transparent at all. And it's not just about incompetence in managing customer data. They are unethical to boot

            Anyway. I don't care about changing your mind (or anyone else's) from this point. I've done what I can to raise awareness. Happy to watch the sheep wander towards the slaughterhouse from this point.

              @[Deactivated]: So basically you've made your point and realised you have no defence. Hope it gave you the power boost you were after lol.
              If you think Shopback is the biggest threat to you online you shouldn't even be allowed to access the internet.

              Either ban all the companies or ban none of them.
              Just don't be surprised if there's not many left if you choose to ban them all.

        • Yeah I mean its one thing to have slow postage or bad products etc.

          But the scope of this data breach including phone numbers and credit card details is crazy to me.

          It should be a blanket ban.

          There are hundreds of us receiving automated calls, and I'm honestly tired of submitting reports to CBA and the ATO…

          • +2

            @Telios: Just a correction, there is no mention of credit card details being leaked as they weren't even collecting those details at the time of the breach.

            Also even the big players like eBay and Amazon have had data breaches in the past, should we ban those companies too? Not saying you are wrong, but doesn't make sense to selectively ban one company but not numerous others equally bad.

  • Thanks OP, got online card converted to eBay. All codes and tracking received instantly.

  • Cheers DB. $50 Ebay card it is.

  • Can you add the ebay code to your account without making a purchase? Thanks!

    • Yes you redeem it towards your account balance.

      • How do you do that? I tried looking for this option but no luck.

        • Damn, I can't find it but I swear you used to be able to.

          Guess you have to buy something which is annoying.

      • +2

        Not entirely correct. You need to make a purchase first to link the gift card to your account, there's no other way to link/redeem it. Once it's linked then it will show up in future purchases and cannot be redeemed on any other eBay account.

        • Keep the number handy as sometimes it will not show in check out at all.as it usually would.

  • Saw the T&C and it mention one bonus per customer. Does that mean multiple purchases doea not stack?

    https://files.ozbargain.com.au/upload/315626/84238/screensho…

    • Looks like that $3 bonus can only be activated once per SB account.

  • Do you get cashback when purchasing a gift card using cashback?

    • Yep

  • Thank you, second bonus deal for a $5.00 JB Hi Fi gift card, very useful coming up to Christmas!

  • +4

    Warning I bought TCN gift cards though the ShopBack app but cashback didn’t track. I followed the instructions exactly but when I reported the missed cash back I was still denied by TCN.

    • worked for me. i bought 2000$. They all tracked 10x 10$ because i bought 200x 10.

      • You have 10 ShopBack accounts?

        • nah i bought 2000$ worth at one time but the biggest denomination is 200$ and max 10 of them.

          Get the 200$ because they convert to 200$ ebay gift cards. There are limits to how many of them u can put them if u buy very expensive items.

      • You are lucky then. I only missed out on $12. I would have been so disappointed if I missed out on cashback of $100. Unfortunately it happens sometimes even when you follow the instructions to the “T”.

    • +1

      Same here. Followed every instruction and got cashback denied. Seems a bit of hit and miss with ShopBack nowadays.

    • Exact same thing happened to me. Safer to go with cashrewards given they offer cashback guarantee.

  • Anybody confirm doordash ones are working now?

  • I converted the TCN card to eBay gift card but have not got the eBay giftcard email to me yet and this was 1 hr ago, anyone else has the same problem?

    • Almost immediate. Check spam folder?

      • Checked.. :(

    • I am experiencing the same issue.

      • Tried to ring TCN hotline however no one answered. I have submitted by query to them with proof of purchase via their online form.

        • How do you even get proof of purchase? I didn't get anything except an email from shopback saying the transaction tracked.

      • If you purchased it through the app it will appear on the app side.

    • How did you convert it to eBay gift card? There was no option to covert to eBay at all…

      • There was this morning. Someone said they removed the eBay icon at the comments below. I’ve got my eBay gift card now after waiting for 8 hours.

        • It came back today. So there was definitely something happened but not sure what.

  • How long does it take to have the voucher emailed to you..

    • Instant

      • Its been 18 hours and still nothing received.. Not really happy paying $200 and waiting forever for the Voucher code..

        • Have you looked in the app? I don't get any email - the voucher sits in the app for me…

          • @blighst: Currently in the app, do I use the Redemption ID?

            Even when I click 'See Voucher', it goes to the TCN page to the Digital Redemption Form with a Card No already entered and pin already entered, so I hit Submit and it doesnt work. "Sorry you have insufficient balance to proceed"

            • +1

              @graceyym: That means you already claimed the eBay/whatever voucher (provided your contact details) and should have got an email from The Card Network. If you haven't got an email maybe you should contact them. I got my email with eBay code within 10 minutes.

              • @wangasm: Thanks for that, finally received it 22 hours after purchasing. Also a note for everyone, it was received in my Junk Folder which I regularly check anyway.

                I've now just purchased a second $200 Voucher, and received that one within 2 minutes. What a difference.

  • Trying to buy the Online card but looks like sold out?

    • gift card portal is only available through the ShopBack app (ensure you have the latest app version installed).

  • Great deal

  • Edit. Mods please delete comment.

  • +6

    Strange, ebay has somehow disappeared from the list?

    • Yeah I noticed. It's out of stock temporarily ?

      • yea same here, literally just purchased, no eBay in the list to convert……

        • any updates

        • +2

          Take some screen shots now as pre-purchase it advertises all including eBay. This would be misleading if it then does not and you would be protected under ACL.

          • @chyawala: this is so annoying I needed to buy something tonight

      • So I am not the only one.. Hope Ebay will be back soon…

  • Got one, but I want Ebay

  • You can pay for Gift Cards by using your existing Cashback balance

    no you can't - there's currently a technical issue such that OTP verification codes aren't being sent - which also means no withdrawals :(

    • You don't need to withdraw it, it lets you deduct it directly from your available balance.

      • still requires verification

        OTP verification codes aren't being sent

        • You do not need an OTP code to buy a gift card… at least when I purchased it the last couple of times with my balance.

  • My ShopBack tracking email states only a $2.50 cashback instead of $3. Is anybody else getting this?

    • +2

      The $2.50 is the cashback from the purchase itself. The $3 bonus on top of that is tracked separately within 48 hours of the $2.50 being confirmed.

  • +2

    How to view the voucher code through the Shopback app?

  • +1

    I've just purchased a $100 Online gift card but when I tried to select the retailer, how come there is no option to choose eBay? only Showpo., Tiger Mist, Surtstitch, Princess Polly, ASOS, Adore Beauty, Beginining Boutique and Zanui are available.

    • I guessed it might happen. I bought a few one by one in the last month and always redeemed it right after purchase.

  • Ebay gift cards seem to be out of stock. Hopefully they will come back.

  • +2

    Wtf, no eBay. Bait and switch

  • +2

    Ebay cards back in stock.

  • Ordered ebay gift card 2 hours ago. Haven’t received yet.

  • +1

    I got a very fast response today to an email I sent to TCN about my gift card not being received. Surprised I thought their customer service was supposed to be poor. Their phones aren’t open today but staff are answering emails.
