    We have appealed this missing cashback claim with the merchant and found that the merchant has deemed ShopBack ineligible to earn commissions on this transaction which results in us being unable to pass the cashback along to you.

    Stupid reason why my PIA cashback was rejected, wouldn't bother. Not worth the risk.

  • I signed up via Shopback App on Saturday and received tracked email in 2 hours, not bad. $124.78 cash back.

    Hopefully can get full cash back in March next year.

    PIA App is good, speed so far so good. Unlimited data. 10 devices same time. Haven't tried Netflix.

    • Just because it tracks does not mean it will be paid.

        Shopback should be rebranded Scamtrack

        • Perfect timing huhuu, this is the season of pixies, elves and fairies
          which is the only possible time you COULD get shopback. Only kidding, even the Pope was rejected.

    Just got this from ShopBack

    Your Transaction Summary
    Date Store Order Number Cashback
    2021-12-19 Private Internet Access VPN PIA-******* A$126.31

    I removed the Order number with *

    It does say "Cashback amount is final upon confirmation, subject to merchant's validation.", so its not guaranteed to work

    I do not recommend using an iPad to make the order, i have had more luck with refunds using a computer

    once again, you probably wont get your rebate when its big, they are good at tracking 0% rebates though.

    Just a heads up again for those who are new to this and want to risk it: do NOT cancel your Private Internet Access subscription auto-renew until after you have been paid out by Shopback (assuming your transaction actually tracked) — this usually means waiting a few months as that is how long it takes for them to pay you. Just put a reminder in your calendar to do it after the relevant cool-off period (according to Shopback, it's 75 days).

    If you cancel the auto-renew before then, you will 100% get your cashback declined.

    • I just turned it back on

    • Thanks for your reminder!

    This is how they are able to do 115% cashback, they (PIA) probably reject every 3rd/4th valid order.

    PSA: PIA is owned by Kape

    • This.

      Well, there's gotta be a reason for them to be PAYING YOU to use PIA, and I can't think of a single one that is good.
      For inconsequential stuff, sure, but if you need any resemblance of privacy, just no - it's shady af.

  • if they're paying you to use something, it says all you need to know about the quality of the product.
