    My last First Choice 22% got denied - not because of a tracking problem, mind you, but because the 'store denied the claim' despite it being an OzBargain-listed deal.

    Lost lost my personal data and now my cashback.

      I have cashback of hundreds of dollars denied for no reason. It was for an Expedia booking through Shopback. I think this is one of the way they make money. The whole thing is not transparent. They can simply get the money and keep it.

    • sentinel on 31/12/2020 - 01:51

      What does 'store denied the claim' mean? There must be a reason tied to it if the transaction was tracked, else Shopback should've honored the transaction.

      • [Deactivated] on 31/12/2020 - 07:09

        Agreed. I'm sure the store rep knows why the cashback was denied by the seller

    • princess_nik_nak on 31/12/2020 - 10:48

  • enwar on 31/12/2020 - 01:42

    I haven't had any issues with my cashback tracking at all. I always use the shopback app and all my cashback have been tracked and approved. Do you guys use the app?

    • Falbium on 31/12/2020 - 01:51

      The complaints above are more about cashbacks that have tracked successfully, but still got denied. But it's also pretty common to see complaints about failure to track. I use Chrome browser with an addon called toggle extensions on/off, it helps to make sure I'm running a clean browser with no addons or plugins running. Some people just disable their adblocker but I suspect there may be other addons that can cause issues too, so it's best to disable everything. Never had an issue tracking with over a hundred purchases on Shopback and Cashrewards. Not saying they don't mess up but it hasn't been my experience.

    Assume your personal information is safe with Shopback

    Nothing showing in my shopback from the liquorland Cashback a couple of days ago. I guess it didn't track? Cashrewards normally send a confirmation within a few minutes.

    • [Deactivated] on 31/12/2020 - 07:12

      Not even in click history?

      • cainen on 31/12/2020 - 07:30

        It is in the click history. No cashback pending though after spending $95.

    When is a bargain not a bargain? When you buy something with the expectation of getting a cashback, but it doesn't track or is denied. You did everything right. You have the click history, the order delivered/picked up. So with all the comments in these threads about cashbacks not happening, why do mods continually allow SB "deals" to be posted on the front page?

    • [Deactivated] on 31/12/2020 - 07:46

      It sucks if you didn't get the cashback either because it didn't track or because it was denied by the store. When it was denied by the store, does Shopback say why? They must give a reason. I guess the Shopback rep doesn't help their cause either - unlike Cashrewards, they're either nowhere to be seen here, or don't address issues like this.

      • pizzaguy on 31/12/2020 - 08:46

        From SB email on such occassions:

        There are quite a few reasons why these orders may not be attributed to ShopBack. This includes:

        1. If a user clicks on a Honey, Cashrewards, or another chrome extension after clicking from ShopBack
        2. If other web pages (including search sites, social media, store sites, promotional/discount sites) or web browsers are opened after clicking through ShopBack
        3. Clicking through to another page from a banner, pop-up, or advertisement on the store’s webpage whilst shopping
        4. Antivirus/Cleanup or Adblocker applications block or disrupt Cashback tracking (Tracking cookies are required to track transaction)
        5. When the order falls under the merchant’s exclusions, including the use of promo codes not listed on ShopBack.

        So I guess the best way is to have a clean install of everything on your computer :) And to record every step on your screen. Like, make a video.

        Takes a bit of skill to get your widely advertised discount.

          This is not that different from Cashrewards. It's just a standard email that explains why your order didn't track. It's more of an issue when your order did track, but the store denied the claim, as in:
          https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/595072#comment-9889236

            +1

            @[Deactivated]: That's the email I got every time I submitted a "manual" claim for a purchase that appeared in SB, but stayed "pending" with $0.00 CB for more than a week.

            It's just a standard email that explains why your order didn't track.

            They give too many possible reasons, hence my tip to the gamblers ready to use SB is to make a clean install of everything, use a simple router, screen recorder.

          OR ……….

          You could just use Shopback's Android/Apple app to put the item in your cart and check out.

          I have never had problems with items not being tracked when using the app.

          • pizzaguy on 31/12/2020 - 10:46

      why do mods continually allow SB "deals" to be posted on the front page?

      If you are unhappy with Shopback's service then feel free to not use their deals.

      Personally, I'm perfectly happy with Shopback and want to see their deals.

      By asking for mods to intervene in this way, you are effectively asking for censorship and trying to infringe in my rights to see Shopback deals.

      You need to learn to grow up and just scroll past any Shopback deals, without getting triggered.

      • omblygombly on 31/12/2020 - 11:26

        I use a Chromebook and never had a problem with either Cashback or Cashrewards. Though I do feel for the people who have missed out, especially when there is a substantial claim involved. I just wonder if all these people are following the instructions properly ? If they have, then maybe escalate the matter with some legal advice.

      • upupandaway on 31/12/2020 - 16:53

        My last 3 purchases using SB have not tracked. One was through their app. I would not have purchased any if I knew there was to be a problem in obtaining the cashback. Lately on these SB upsized cashback deals, many of the Ozbargain community are posting up their displeasure at not obtaining the advertised cashback. I can assure you I will no longer purchase through one of these “deals”.
        Just to clarify, the online dictionary states the definition of a bargain as:

        noun: bargain; plural noun: bargains
        1. an agreement between two or more people or groups as to what each will do for the other.
        2. a thing bought or offered for sale much more cheaply than is usual or expected.

        Sorry, but the items I bought without the cashback were definitely not bargains.
        As for censorship, I am not advocating the deals be banned, but taken off the front page and have a separate forum, with appropriate warning that if the purchase does not track, you lose. Have a read of this forum, https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/580653#comment , my comment was posted on 16 Dec 2020. As you can see I am not advocating censorship, just warning the unwary. Being a grown up entails a lot of traits, one being helping others.

    This is a 50/50 deal. There's only a 50% chance it will work. My last deals were denied by store. No code, no ad block, added to cart after clicking - still didn't work for my $500+ items from amazon. It did work for the $4 cable I ordered though.

    • Budju on 31/12/2020 - 08:29

      This. Every time it's a $2 item it works flawlessly. When it's items of higher value / cashback amount, you run into all sorts of problems.

      • ATangk on 31/12/2020 - 09:07

        Suit yourself. $2 items didn’t get me $1600 in CB.

        • J6 on 31/12/2020 - 14:30

          Yeah 50/50. You got lucky

        • UncleRico on 04/01/2021 - 01:35

          Isn't this a Shopback deal?

          Commentary suggests a much higher degree of failed tracked deals in Shopback compared to CashRewards.

          • ATangk on 04/01/2021 - 05:18

            @UncleRico: CB =/= CR

            • UncleRico on 04/01/2021 - 16:01

              @ATangk: CR also =/= SB, the latter of which has a well deserved reputation across this forum and others for poor tracking rates, particularly on bonus commission promos.

              • ATangk on 04/01/2021 - 16:46

                @UncleRico: Well, I have $1600 in shopback and $300 in CR - if this makes it any clearer. Both have worked well for me, and both have had issues too but support almost always works it out for me.

                • UncleRico on 04/01/2021 - 17:16

                  @ATangk: It doesn't really make anything clearer with regards to the J6 and Budju's comments regarding the reliability of Shopback tracking, except that you personally prefer SB. I've got earnings of $1,730 in CR and $134 in SB, but that is obviously a product of my preference for the former. Neither scenario is a barometer of click-thru tracking rates.

                  What does appear to be a reliable indicator, is the amount of negs that Shopback attract in the wake of repeated failures to honour upsized cashback promos as seen at www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/shopback.com.au

                  Nothing wrong with your preference, but it's certainly horses for courses…

      Far from Ponzi, but overnight rates and people who can't be bothered making claims, but were attracted by potential discounts, are certainly in SB's or their partners' business model.

  • Smigit on 31/12/2020 - 08:17

    +1 from me. My First Choice purchase from the 21 December offer tracked just fine. Used the iOS app.

    • bob19 on 31/12/2020 - 09:38

      As experienced by many "tracked" doesn't always mean you will get your cashback. Suddenly your cashback may be denied.

      • Smigit on 31/12/2020 - 10:04

        I’m sure that’s the experience for some others, but I also haven’t had this issue with Shopback.

        • J6 on 31/12/2020 - 14:30
          +1

          Had numerous stuff that tracked that later disappeared without notification.

          • Smigit on 31/12/2020 - 20:12

            @J6: That’s a shame for you and others. Still, it’s been fine for me transaction wise. 28 confirmed transactions and 17 are in progress currently. The only rejected transactions I have are Amazon orders that either weren’t eligible for cashback to begin with (video games mostly) or orders I cancelled.

            My experience is they are far more reliable than Cashrewards to be honest, probably because the iOS app seems to track well for me. To their credit cashrewards support always rectifies the issues, but I have far far more tracking issues with them.

            I’m also not particularly happy that Cash Rewards denied my request to remove my bank details from my account when I contacted them to do so after the ShopBack incidents. Despite the fact payouts can be made to PayPal, their support wouldn’t let me remove my bank details. I get the irony that it’s ShopBack that had the breach, but none the less I would expect Cash Rewards to allow people to remove bank details if they have no payout in progress and they support PayPal as a cash out option. I specially given the visible failings of their competitor.

            Not saying ones better than the other, but I think both services have their pros and cons. Not really happy with how either manages data, be it ShopBack being breached or Cash Rewards hanging onto payment methods when they have alternative options to cash out to.

            • Smigit on 31/12/2020 - 23:39

              @Smigit: Fancy being negged for stating my experience has been positive with a service, without questioning or arguing that others experience may not necessarily match my own.

    Even when it does track you have a 50/50 it will be rejected for one of three reasons (we can't tell you exactly why).

    I've never had a problem with Shopback tracking or getting cashback confirmed thru them. Obviously others must either not follow process correctly, not understand all conditions or there are cliches in their tracking which happens. Cashrewards has similar issues the only difference between them is security of your personal data.

      Yes. If the first order didn't hit the cap then the combined cashback of the two (or more) orders will add up to the cap (or less if you didn't make it).

      After you hit the cap, subsequent orders will still track, but the cashback value will be $0.

    • Store Repgotyourback @ ShopBack AU on 31/12/2020 - 11:47

      Hey KimKh,

      If your cashback is pending that means it’s tracked and we’re waiting for the merchant/brand to validate the order. As soon as that happens your order will move from pending to approved. This can take upto 90 days depending on the brands refund policy.
