Runs for 5 hours from 6pm today. I think this will be the highest cashback ever for Nord :)

Cashback is eligible for new NordVPN customers only.

Cashback may be ineligible if using codes not listed on Cashrewards.

Cashback is calculated and paid on the advertised cost of the plan only. It will not include any GST, taxes, credit card or PayPal surcharges.

The 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.

    Thanks OP. Does anyone know how this compares to Surfshark for normal usage (browsing, streaming etc?).

    • Finner on 31/07/2021 - 11:14

      I'm curious about this too, as well as how the tools compare - browser extensions and android app. Haven't been impressed with the functionality of Surfshark's.

    • RexLongfellow on 31/07/2021 - 11:15

      I've used Surfshark for around two years and have no issues with it. I've heard decent things about NordVPN too, so it wouldn't be an issue.

    • Beefa on 31/07/2021 - 11:27

      Never used Surfshark but can confirm Nord is a quality product for streaming and general browsing

    • Haliax on 31/07/2021 - 11:41

      Do you have a android phone?

      If so, a free trial for Nord can be accessed from the play store. This allows you to test the VPN yourself, and will be better indicator of how the VPN will perform for you than an opinion.

      Else, I recommended reading the following:

        There were comments in prior deal about privacy issue and data breach with Nord. Also how they were secretly tracking users IP.

    • Willyeckerslike on 31/07/2021 - 20:35

      I have both for geo unlocking TV. Both work well for different apps. Nord for UK BBC but Surfshark for UK ITV. It varies from one to the other for Netflix regions. I will get them both again in a year or two when they run out. I will wait for deals on here though.

  • CacheHunter on 31/07/2021 - 11:03

    What are the main reasons people use a VPN like this? Is it just access to cheaper overseas Netflix, avoiding Australian government spying and metadata tracking, running a backyard drug cartel or something else?

      Their main benefit is viewing overseas content. They're also good when you're using unsecure networks or networks you don't trust. Also good for torrenting because it can hide your activity from your ISP. They're generally pretty overrated when it comes to protecting your privacy, so if you're running a drug cartel, a VPN is not really going to do all that much for you. But those 3 benefits make it worth using one every now and then.

          TorGuard's meant to be one of the most secure VPNs, or so I hear. Encrypted messengers, Tor network, are all privacy focused. Check out r/degoogle on Reddit

            @reloxation: You’d want a VPN even accessing tors VPN…

            Majority are compromised anyhow…

            Most pgp encryption can also be cracked in a very short time frame…

      Mainly torrenting, as I know some ISPs block torrent sites (such as tangerine who I'm with now), also comes handy for geo blocked sites for example right now I can watch olympic highlights on youtube using a USA server.

        Pretty sure changing your dns to google (8.8.8.8 , 8.8.4.4) or another alternative gets around the government enforced 'blocks' of torrent sites.

      • Ryballs on 31/07/2021 - 15:18

        You can usually just change your DNS server (ie. 8.8.8.8) to access blocked sites.

      • MeesusEff on 01/08/2021 - 23:07

        Yup I got it, $14 for 27 months is too good to pass up. Although I primarily stream from TV so I don't think I can get it to work from there 😣

    • aguitarfreak on 31/07/2021 - 11:50
      +5

      Yes, all you have to do is use the VPN and sign in as a different user profile to the one you were already signed in as before turning on the VPN. That way Netflix won't block you out when it sees you're logging in from Australia one second, France the other and then the US! So don't fully log out just sign in as a different user profile and it will refresh to the Country.

      • vr4indian on 31/07/2021 - 13:33

        How about Disney plus hotstar? Would it be blocked as well?

        • MeesusEff on 31/07/2021 - 13:34

          Not too sure as I don't have it, but I would think if it works for Netflix it should work for all. They have a 14 day free trial, you can test it there. Pretty easy to set up, I'm quite noob and I managed to do it.

          I tried looking up if I could configure nord on my TV like my Getflix but couldn't figure it out.

        • karseeeejaaaa on 31/07/2021 - 14:12

          Hotstar detects Surfshark when I run the app on my tv. However, when running Hotstar through my browser, it goes through easily. The speed is sometimes slow and thus video buffers.
          No experience on Nord though.

      I never got any cashback from Shopback. All transactions are pending including referrals when I was sure I satisfied the requirements (referred my wife). Unfortunately, it's only recently that I have been aware of the data leak. I since then de activated both accounts - mine's and the wife. They can keep whatever is left there. Just not worth it.

      Cashrewards, on the other hand, has been very good ever since I opened an account more than 4 years ago.

    • Diji1 on 31/07/2021 - 14:25
      +1

      Many online businesses operate an affiliate marketing system. Basically means they pay a commission to anyone who sends traffic, that does what they want, through their tracking link. What they want might be buying something or it could be entering an email or whatever.

      Often these are open to anyone to use, such as in the case of Nord for example, where you can be an affiliate for them by filling out a form. Other businesses have higher barrier to be an affiliate though.

      Businesses like Cashrewards are affiliates. They pay for traffic by paying the people who click their tracking link a part of the commission from the sale. Actually most of the commission in many cases.

    Shame how there's no single "best" VPN out there even if you're prepared to pay more for better speeds and reliability. Even the big-name ones like Nord, Surfshark, Express, PIA etc. still seem to suffer from bad lag and dropouts when trying to stream geoblocked live TV (not on-demand services like Netflix) even with NBN speeds of 250 or 1000…

    • Sapiens on 31/07/2021 - 14:45

    • MeesusEff on 31/07/2021 - 18:12

      Would be pretty silly if it doesn't since their start time coincided with the sale. But if it doesn't then there's still the 30 day money back guarantee to refund on?

    Personally, I use ProtonVPN because it offers a basic free tier membership that is adequate for my purposes, not to mention suitable for my budget (or lack thereof), plus it's made by the same people who brought us ProtonMail, therefore I know it's being provided by a trustworthy company with a proven track record of protecting user privacy.

    • Borg on 31/07/2021 - 18:09

      Genuine question: Do you find the free version any good. I tested ProtonVPN many times over the last few years and as recent as 2 months ago. Was fine in Trial mode but Free version was awful and very few servers to connect to. The ones that where available were really really slow. Seems like a no brainer to grab (which I did but at only 90% off) NordVPN full version. At 95% off is close to free! It works very well and a bucket load of Servers globally.

      • stephendt on 31/07/2021 - 18:32
        +1

        Does this even matter? ProtonMail uses a combination of public-key cryptography and symmetric encryption protocols to offer end-to-end encryption. When a user creates a ProtonMail account, their browser generates a pair of public and private RSA keys:

        • The public key is used to encrypt the user's emails and other user data.
        • The private key capable of decrypting the user's data is symmetrically encrypted with the user's mailbox password.
        • This symmetrical encryption happens in the user's web browser using AES-256. Upon account registration, the user is asked to provide a login password for their account.

        ProtonMail also offers users an option to log in with a two-password mode which requires a login password and a mailbox password.

        • The login password is used for authentication.
        • The mailbox password encrypts the user's mailbox that contains received emails, contacts, and user information as well as a private encryption key.

        • Upon logging in, the user has to provide both passwords. This is to access the account and the encrypted mailbox and its private encryption key. The decryption takes place client-side either in a web browser or in one of the apps. The public key and the encrypted private key are both stored on ProtonMail servers. Thus ProtonMail stores decryption keys only in their encrypted form so ProtonMail developers are unable to retrieve user emails or reset user mailbox passwords. This system absolves ProtonMail from:

        • Storing either the unencrypted data or the mailbox password.

        • Divulging the contents of past emails but not future emails.
        • Decrypting the mailbox if requested or compelled by a court order.
        • ProtonMail exclusively supports HTTPS and uses TLS with ephemeral key exchange to encrypt all Internet traffic between users and ProtonMail servers. Their 4096-bit RSA SSL certificate is signed by QuoVadis Trustlink Schweiz AG and supports Extended Validation, Certificate Transparency, Public Key Pinning, and Strict Transport Security. Protonmail.com holds an "A+" rating from Qualys SSL Labs.

        In September 2015, ProtonMail added native support to their web interface and mobile app for PGP. This allows a user to export their ProtonMail PGP-encoded public key to others outside of ProtonMail, enabling them to use the key for email encryption. The ProtonMail team plans to support PGP encryption from ProtonMail to outside users.

        Now if you could elaborate to me how this isn't secure or private enough, I'm all ears.

    Grabbed the 2 year deal, can’t go wrong with the price and wanted to fiddle around with a VPN for awhile now. Already got US Netflix working so that’s sweet. No luck with Disney+ yet, they were onto me. Prime loaded normally but not familiar enough with the library to know if it was any different at this stage.

    My only concern is that usually with Cashrewards my purchases track almost instantly, but no recognition of the purchase yet. Oh well they do so up to 7 days :)
    Edit: tracked!

      Yeah, should still track. I bought mine listing another country that does not have gst added on and have received a cashback tracking of expecting $111.3 back. Just checked my bank account and shows that $113.92. I have used Bankwest bank without any foreign fees.
