Sounds like a no brainer deal really. Can't go wrong with spending just a few bucks (in currency exchange) zero bucks giving you a plan lasting over several years
Update: I paid A$109 for a 3 year plan and ShopBack initially tracked A$103.65 as the cashback (but we are told it will be updated to $109 i.e. 100% cashback as confirmed by the store rep in the comments.

Notes
Excludes taxes, fees or additional extras
Cashback is only valid for New Private Internet Access Customers

      Tracked after ~2 hours. Currently "pending" apparently till 10 OCT..

  • Bretttick on 26/07/2021 - 18:01

    Had my cash back recently denied through Banggood. Shop back basically said it's up to Banggood to decide if I get a rebate or not.

    Very untrustworthy, left a review on Google Play store also

  • sintro on 26/07/2021 - 18:10

    Does cashback include the dedicated IP option? 3 years total $361.00

    Also has the cashback amount been fixed and tracked for 100% cashback?

  • Janko on 26/07/2021 - 18:17

    Just went to log in to Shopback, SMS code, all good, then thought I must have clicked a change password button, hit back to ensure I didn't, got "Too many attempts" and "We force change of passwords often…". Isn't a password and SMS code enough for you? Should I change my phone number as well next month?

    Fail.

    I purchased using Cashrewards 92% cashback instead.

    • Borg on 26/07/2021 - 18:21

      So $8.72 more than SB. I'd have worked out the SB issue and then tried again as you will need to sort at some point……….unless you no longer plan on using SB.

      • Janko on 26/07/2021 - 18:38

        Nah, it's a red flag for me when I see this sort of stuff and not surprised to see negs coming in on the deal. Cashrewards 100% back PIA deal 6 months ago didn't get negs.

        SB can keep my few dollars as a back reward for attempting to protect it better than my bank protects my accounts (which have never been breached in 35 years).

        Happy to pay more for a smoother experience.

  • Borg on 26/07/2021 - 18:31

    If one buys via USA (as an example only) rather than AU to save 10% GST……..will it still be honoured I wonder?

    • sintro on 31/07/2021 - 15:56

      there is no gst

  • umeshktangnu on 26/07/2021 - 19:14

    How long will it take for cashback to reflect in my shopback account?

  • Koffee on 26/07/2021 - 19:32

    Having paid nothing for or little the last round of PIA, I've put in for another. Not upvoting until I get confirmation from Shopback that it tracked. And BTW, I have done a screen recording of the ENTIRE process SB argue with me…

    Windows Key + ALT + R is your friend.

    EDIT: It tracked, upvoted.

    • Doge420 on 26/07/2021 - 20:17

      They could still deny it as its Pending for 3 months right?

      • yoquierotaco on 26/07/2021 - 22:05

        yea I guess so, maybe @gotyourback can confirm this:

        • Store Repgotyourback @ ShopBack AU on 26/07/2021 - 22:38

          This is correct. Orders can be declined by the merchant, even after tracking.
          But this is only if:

          • You cancel/refund your purchase
          • You exchange/swap a product you purchased (more for physical goods)
          • Your account is detected to be partaking in some kind of fraudulent activity

          Otherwise, there's no reason for cashback to be declined after confirmation.

                @Koffee: Alright I suspected that, but I'm wondering if they'd see if you've used the same name/payment details, or anything else that can link you to your previous subscriptions.

    • MiscOzB on 27/07/2021 - 07:41

        Does the cashback include the dedicated IP address add-on option?

        • bradstud92 on 28/07/2021 - 22:02

          Wondering this too. I purchased with the dedicated IP. Couldn't find a clause to say otherwise. @gotyourback to confirm. If that's the case, I'd be looking for the refund for the dedicated IP.

        • Zachary on 29/07/2021 - 21:12

        • activeight8 on 30/07/2021 - 10:21

          I added it in the purchase. The total has shown up in shop back as pending

          • fookos on 30/07/2021 - 12:35

            @activeight8: I didn't end up opting for the dedicated IP. Would be a nice option to have and, while I've have a pretty good track record with Shopback tracking and redeeming cashback, I didn't want to risk a purchase of ~$350 not working out as I wouldn't have purchased this service at all had their not been the cashback on offer. Hope it works out for you, though. There's no reason it shouldn't given cashback rate was for all purchases not just the three year plan.

            @activeight8: The terms clearly state that "Excludes taxes, fees or additional extras". I wouldn't count on getting cashback finalised for an 'add-on' to the VPN plan, but all the best. See how you go mate.

            • fookos on 31/07/2021 - 10:54

              @singhdeals: Thanks. Glad I didn’t risk adding that option, just in case it’s forms part of the ‘additional extras’ in the fine print.

              All the best to those that grabbed the dedicated IP. Hope your CB does pay out.

    • Borg on 26/07/2021 - 22:47

  • Hybroid on 26/07/2021 - 22:44

    No one ever questions why VPNs are being offered at ridiculously low prices or now 100% cashback schemes?

    • Binchicken22 on 27/07/2021 - 08:58

      It seems to be the business model world wide for VPN providers… Have a standard price that maybe 20% of "suckers" pay and then a highly discounted price that all the people "in the loop" pay, it obviously works for them as it's been going on for years and years now.

      This 100% cashback deal is probably more about playing the long game and trying to get people to forget to turn off the auto renewal (can't turn it off for at least 3 months to get the cashback).

      • Zachary on 29/07/2021 - 21:15

        How are they making money if they're giving it to us for free?

    • Zachary on 29/07/2021 - 21:14

      Yeah, I was about to ask this if you didn't….there must be some sort of catch…..I guess shopback is the catch here, ay? Gamble your luck to see if you get your cashback or not since it's not guaranteed and thus this offer isn't exactly a freebie…

  • Italkdigital on 26/07/2021 - 22:50

    Question,. Why is this subscription being offered almost free? Are there any catches? hidden data background collecting? Visiting site monitoring? Cookies? Marshmallows? Squirts? Unauthorised bounce backs? To name a few, man when this lockdown gonna end, I'm loosing it badly

    👍😁🤣🤪🤑

    • BargainBuddy on 27/07/2021 - 00:11

      I had a chat with PIA customer service. According to them they have no direct connection with this cashback. It's more or less a retail offer provided by retailers on onboarding new customers. Not sure how it works.

    • umoddbro on 30/07/2021 - 00:10

      Just remember if you're not paying for the product, you are the product.

      • Borg on 30/07/2021 - 00:17

        Who cares if that indeed was the case. One would not be buying a VPN for anonymity and especially it being PIA (American Based and store logs). VPN's are still handy for many things especially when free :-)

  • Italkdigital on 26/07/2021 - 22:51

    Actually will this auto subscribe in 3 years? So can we now cancel subscription or not as maybe this is a monthly subscription for 3 years?

    • BargainBuddy on 27/07/2021 - 00:06

      You will get your next invoice in 3 yrs. I hope that answers your question.

      Deactivate the subscription when you get you cash back. May be wait for a month before unsubscribing.

    • yoquierotaco on 27/07/2021 - 16:18

      Yea don’t cancel the subscription until after cashback. The problem is with PIA, when you stop the subscription, they flag it as your account being cancelled.

      • Italkdigital on 27/07/2021 - 21:59

        Okay yupz good idea wait for cashback to happen first, but after that if I cancel subscription will it still continue till end of 3 year term?,

        Thanks for your reply……when I click on Go to deal it takes me to shopback website and I don't have an acct with shopback and shopback website doesn't say or display about the bandwidth or data limit and hence my question to clarify. So rather than a judging it a lazy Q's this is more about finding information…

        • Borg on 28/07/2021 - 14:57

          I wasn't suggesting you go to Shop Back as no answers to be had there. One should go to "Private Internet Access" website as that's where all the info about what you are buying is held and you can check for any other info (if needed) at the same time. Was only stating the obvious thing to do.

    Have always used Cashrewards.

    Decided to give ShopBack a go recently when they had 20% off ASICS.

    Cash back was tracked yay, check back a month later and they’d secretly reduced it from $41 to $13.

    I’m more amused than upset.

    Will NOT ever use this joke of a service. Never ever had this issue with CR.

    I made sure NOT to use the $20 off for signing up at ASICS either.

    Returning the shoes, thank god I didn’t run in them yet.

    Just wow.

    Be warned guys.

    Hell I’ve never posted a comment on ozB either but I just had to give people a heads up. Yeah maybe they’d sort this if I did the contact support blah blah blah process, but the question is simply why….? Absolutely ridiculous. Far out I’m disgusted. GST ? Nope. I calculated 20% of the price excl gst, That would still make the cash back $38.

    Just thought that I wouldn’t notice, right 😂

    • Italkdigital on 30/07/2021 - 04:55

      thanks,. its good to know when things can go wrong,. though I can say both CB providers you've mentioned I've had issues with when it came to honouring cash backs,. but you can guess which ones been the worst,. so dare I say it can be a gamble at times and at the same time very tempting like this deal 🤣

        • sintro on 29/07/2021 - 10:47

          None other than the fact that only you will be using that IP address.
          I confirmed with support that you can choose whether to select of the of the available regions or use your own dedicated IP. So it's up to you to decide when you connect. Dedicated IP on works on their app.

          (*** Currently, dedicated IPs only work with the PIA apps. Further implementation of Dedicated IPs outside of the PIA app is being looked into but there is no estimated time for when or if other options may be added.
          you can connect to our application with or without using the Dedicated IP. You can activate it when you wanted to use it or just connect to one of our regular regions.

  • fookos on 28/07/2021 - 10:28

    Thanks for posting OP.

    Looks like there are similarly competitive cashback offers for both Surfshark and NordVPN via Shopback at the moment - though they are both 90 per cent compared with the 100 per cent CB for PIA.

    I've been using Getflix, which doesn't have the volume of servers internationally that these folks have, so will grab an extra service.

    Seems all have their advocates, but is there a standout service of the three? If I end up paying $10 for SF or Nord instead of complete cashback for PIA that's fine. Might as well get the best service if there is such a thing.

    Views welcome.

    [Large cashback offers for new customers only, of course]

    New to VPN game, got a question. I have a Tidal subscription and a few Amazon speakers around. Streaming Tidal music on Amazon Alexa is supported in some countries, but unfortunately, not in Australia. Therefore, my question is - can I somehow fool Alexa into thinking that I am located in some country where Tidal streaming is supported by Amazon? If yes, is it difficult to do? (If relevant to my question, speakers are connected wirelessly to Asus RT-AC88U).
    Many thanks!

    • superpoo2 on 29/07/2021 - 20:25

      I had the same problem, just go though the generic Private Internet Access link on the Shopback website and select "Get PIA VPN" at the top right of the page.

      On the following page, the middle option is for 3 years at the discounted rate.

      • MOMEHT on 29/07/2021 - 22:31

        Oh… I clicked on 3-year plan and got 2 year + 2 months honestly thinking that this is what they call 3-year plan. I paid A$98.20 (tracked A$98.11 by SB). Should I cancel and try again? I guess, I can't use the same email address though if I do it…

        • Italkdigital on 30/07/2021 - 05:00

    ProtonVPN offers a free VPN service too, run by the same people who brought us ProtonMail, which appealed to my privacy-consciousness due to the trust I already have in their company.

    • Borg on 30/07/2021 - 20:53

      Free version is crap though. Real hit and miss. Have tested it a few times over the last couple of years. The trial/paid version is fine. Have not tested free in last 2 months so no idea if it has improved? I just went with a 90% off Nord VPN 2 year deal here a couple of months back to save the hassle of freebies.

      The free Mail is handy. Have had an account since day one.

  • rake on 01/08/2021 - 12:05

    I cancelled my PIA and signed up with NordVPN. Tried PIA for a week and NordVPN for a day. I use Telstra SIM and Optus 4G home internet.

    For my setup, the Nord runs 5 to 7 times faster. I was able to stream content from other countries (including Prime and Hotstar) on streaming apps using Nord. With PIA, the streaming services work well from browser, but not on apps.

    The actual VPN app experience is better on NordVPN compared to PIA. I know PIA us free, but for a few dollars.. I went for what was a better experience for me.

    Just as a side note, I have never had issues with both Shopback and Cashrewards.
