This is what we've all been waiting for

Have you seen the Cashrewards Black Friday cashback increase banner everywhere? Seen the Apple logo on it and wondered when it will happen and how much the cashback will be?

Well, I reached out to TA (tightarse) last week to enquire about the upcoming upsized cashback for Apple since everyone was asking for it in relation to Apple's annual Black Friday sales (Apple Shopping Event) and he was more than happy to provide some details:

Upsized cashback rate: 10% (excl. GST)

During the 24 hour promo, cashback for Apple is capped at $100 in total per member account, irrespective of the number of transactions made. Valid 12am to 11:59pm AEDT 25/11/2022.

Best to use the Cashrewards app for the highest chance of tracking!

TA has confirmed that all cashback eligible products sold as part of the Apple Shopping Event will be applicable/eligible for the 10% upsized cashback offer, despite having a promotional bonus gift card bundled with the item.

However, cashback will still be ineligible if you purchase a standalone gift card (as always), so don't buy a standalone gift card.

Stack this upsized cashback deal with the Apple AirPods Pro 2nd Gen $399 + Bonus $80 Apple Gift Card deal for an even bigger saving on the AirPods Pro 2nd Gen, especially if using discounted gift cards to pay (yes - you can use gift cards to pay) - this is probably the best deal ever for the 2nd Gen

Special Terms

  • Ineligible for cashback (updated 21/11/22): Gen 10 iPad, iPad Pro 11" & 12.9", Apple TV 4K, iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Plus, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 14 Pro Max, Apple Watch Ultra, Apple Watch Series 8, Studio Display, Pro Display XDR, Purchase of Gift Cards, Gift Wrap, Shipping, Apple Developer Programs, Purchases via trade-ins, AppleCare purchased individually (or after associated product ships).

  • Important: Cashback tracks to member accounts between 2-7 days after you receive confirmation from Apple that the product has been shipped.

  • Apple sells and ships products to end user customers only; you may not purchase for resale. Eligible only to a customer for up to five (5) units per eligible product, except iPhone, in which case only two (2) units within a thirty-day (30-day) period are eligible.

  • Cashback is eligible on purchases paid with gift cards, and eligible on the purchase of Apple refurbished products.

  • Cashback is ineligible on EPP purchases (Employee Purchase Program).

  • Apple Education Store eligibility: full time or part time students aged 18 or over with current student union or student ID card and studying at an accredited Australian university or Apple approved institution; lecturers or staff at an accredited Australian university; teachers or lecturers working at an Apple approved & registered education establishment within Australia. Additionally, products purchased from Apple's Education Store must be for personal, education, or research use.

  • Information on Education pricing on Mac computers and selected accessories (for members that are eligible based on Apple's T&Cs): After clicking 'Shop Now', navigate via the Education link in Apple's footer menu before adding items to cart.

      Cashback is affiliated with Cashrewards exclusively, doubt JB will match it

      • CandyMan on 24/11/2022 - 23:19

        For example get Apple to price match jb price on iPad 9th gen which is a $50 discount (rather than a $40 gift card) + Cashback + discounted gift cards

        • CandyMan on 25/11/2022 - 11:48

          Rep advised price matching invalidates Cashback :(

  • wazman67 on 24/11/2022 - 21:55

    Does anyone have experience getting cash rewards when shopping through the Apple Store app on iPhone? Safari directs the app to open and complete purchase - will that purchase track, or do I need to remove that app temporarily?

    • I Smell Pennies on 24/11/2022 - 22:17

      Do not use the Apple Store app on your iPhone! It will not track. Using the Cashrewards site through the link in this deal ensures it fully tracks as tracking is far superior and it does not redirect to any other link except Apple.

      But as TA always says: Best to use the Cashrewards app for the highest chance of tracking!

        Appreciated!

  • goandgoo on 24/11/2022 - 21:56

    Last year they had 8% cashback uncapped on Cyber Monday. Worth waiting or best to pull the trigger tomorrow?

    • goandgoo on 24/11/2022 - 23:17

      Actually apparently the Cyber Monday deal last year was 5% uncapped so perhaps will pull the trigger tomorrow…

      • DoctorCalculon on 25/11/2022 - 00:11

        Bigger cashbacks > 5% will always be capped. Has always been the case historically.

  • zzzman on 24/11/2022 - 22:00

    Guess I’m getting the Apple Pencil 2 tomorrow!

    10% off ultimate home card from Aldi
    Converted to Apple GC at JB
    $40 gift card for $219 Apple Pencil.

    10% Cashrewards on $179 (or is it $219)?

    And I assume this has to be done in the Cashrewards app or the Apple website (and not Apple Store app)?

    • I Smell Pennies on 24/11/2022 - 22:18

      Correct, do not use the Apple Store app as it will not track! Best to use the Cashrewards app for the highest chance of tracking!

      We’ll know soon enough. My gut feel is it will track the full amount, but with Apple, anything can happen.

    • karseeeejaaaa on 24/11/2022 - 22:49

      Exactly what I wish to do.
      How do I convert the Ultimate card at JB? Walk in and ask for a swap??
      TIA

      • zzzman on 24/11/2022 - 22:56
        +1

        Buy Apple gift cards at JB and tell them you want to use card.

        Swipe ultimate GC and choose credit and enter PIN on card.

        • I Smell Pennies on 24/11/2022 - 23:10

          Or add the card to Apple/Google Wallet and tap (more discreet, and some JB stores are dogs who don’t allow you to use these gift cards to buy another gift card)

          • goandgoo on 24/11/2022 - 23:20

            @I Smell Pennies: I'm not sure if you can add the TCN cards to Apple wallet. Either way they'd get too suspicious if you start scanning multiple cards…

            Have a look at the TCN thread - first JB flat out refused to convert the GCs but 2nd one was more than willing

        • karseeeejaaaa on 24/11/2022 - 23:32

          Thanks mate. And does it matter if this is the Ultimate Home/His/Teen etc. ?

  • gasman70 on 24/11/2022 - 22:08

    So basically anything worth buying is ineligible for cash back. What an absolute crock.

    I just want a base model Mac Air for my son starting year 7 in Jan, confused about where the best deal is/might be as need to save the most $$$. Can someone give me a heads up on where to find/watch the cheapest deal today, tomorrow etc as not very savvy on all of this. Thanks in advance.

    • OSienna on 24/11/2022 - 22:58
      +6

      Okay.. let's have a look at the deals currently available, assuming that you're after the base model MB Air M1 for your son (RRP is $1,499):

      1. Education Store: $1,349 + $100 cashback. Discount = 16.7%

      2. Apple BF Sale: $1,499 + $240 GC + $100 cashback. Discount = 22.6% (assuming you were going to buy $240 worth of stuff from Apple anyway)

      3. Amazon / Officeworks: $1,297. Discount = 13.5% + any additional savings from discounted GCs

      Now if you're travelling overseas in the next 60 days and claim the GST back through the TRS, that will automatically gain you entry into the OzBargain Elite Members Club!

      • I Smell Pennies on 24/11/2022 - 23:07

        Even if you sell off the Apple Gift Card at 10% off, The Black Friday deal is more worth it

      • nightelves on 24/11/2022 - 23:33

        So Education Union not covered by cashrewards?

      • leroy on 25/11/2022 - 09:47

        Excellent, thankyou for taking the time.

      • leroy on 25/11/2022 - 11:04

        I purchased from officeworks for $1,134.65 with Amazon price match and 5% price beat. Thanks for your help.

    • unity1 on 24/11/2022 - 23:05

      Same. I'm going in store tomorrow morning and seeing whether they will pricematch JB and still issue the $240 gift card.

      • Shuey on 24/11/2022 - 23:21

        I think someone called up an Apple rep and asked this (it’s in another thread with the Apple GC offer) and said it was either, i.e. price match or GC, not both. But still worth a try in store

        • unity1 on 24/11/2022 - 23:31

          That's what I'm thinking but hoping for the best.

          • sfac on 25/11/2022 - 09:55

    Dumb question but how long is Apples return window? Is it 14 days?

    I've been wanting a new laptop and don't know if I will like the M1 air. Can I try for a while and return if me no likey or does it have to be unopened?

    Planning on getting through edu store if possible…

    • wordsmith on 25/11/2022 - 00:11

      You may have till 3rd Jan to return products due to extended holiday returns.

    • I Smell Pennies on 25/11/2022 - 00:14

      14 days for iPhones, January for all others

      • Sittingonthemoon on 25/11/2022 - 00:41

        It's until January for iPhones too. I purchased a 14 last week and it's on the receipt

  • boretentsu on 24/11/2022 - 23:23

    Can we expect to see any other promotions from Apple other than the giftcard?

    • kaleidoscope on 25/11/2022 - 00:33

      its been that way for a while. I dont see why that’s a problem? Their credit can be used for both hardware, media and services.

    If you buy an eligible product (Airpods Pro 2) and also an illegible product (Iphone 14 pro) in the same transaction, do you still receive cashback for the eligible product. Or is better doing it as two separate transactions.

    • rain-e on 24/11/2022 - 23:57
      +2

      Probably best to do it separately tbh. Plus you can then use the bonus gift card from the airpods on the iphone and get that out of the way

      • letmesee on 25/11/2022 - 00:01

        Thanks, even better, For some reason, didn't even think about using the gc in that way

    • I Smell Pennies on 25/11/2022 - 00:13

      If you have an ineligible item, I believe the entire cashback is void

        • Jasonofoz on 25/11/2022 - 00:17

          Am I missing something Shuey?

          Price is 1,749 so with 100 CB, it's still not the cheapest I have seen an M2 Air.

          Maybe I am just being greedy but wanted to sanity check…

          • Shuey on 25/11/2022 - 00:30
            +1

            @Jasonofoz: $1,899 - $100 CB - $240 GC - $200 (Flybuys/Coles 20X points) = $1,359

            Potentially a bit less for TRS as I’m travelling at the end of the year

            • Jasonofoz on 25/11/2022 - 01:31

              @Shuey: Sanity checking here…as I'm getting this for son's school next year…

              $1,749 - $100 CB - $240 GC - = $1,409

              I'm on the apple education site via Cash rewards app and just at checkout.

              So I have to pay full 1,749 upfront, correct?

              Unfortunately I don't have any other GCs or Flybuy deals.

              • Shuey on 25/11/2022 - 01:36
                +1

                @Jasonofoz: Yes, you would pay the full amount upfront i.e. $1,749. The 100 CB will take a bit of time, 2-7 days. $240 GC will be emailed to you once they have processed the order. Hopefully you have something else you could buy with it.

              • Shuey on 25/11/2022 - 11:14

                @Jasonofoz: Btw, I just realised you were were buying from the Education site.. at the check out, did yo Lu see the $240 GC being mentioned there? If so then that’s okay, if it isn’t stated then that would mean the purchase will not be eligible for the GC. I bought mine from the normal Apple Store and before check-out it does show the GC as a “Special Offer” which will be emailed to me once order is processed/ship.

                If not, best to cancel and do the normal Apple Store way. A bit less but still you get to offset with the GC

            @Jasonofoz: You need to factor in gift card that you receive as part of the "discount". If that card is no use to you then this deal won't be that great compared to others.

            • Shuey on 25/11/2022 - 00:38

              @zootv: Yep, I do have another device to buy so the GC would come in handy. Every bit helps, I guess

        According to what others have said on OzB, and Apple's T&Cs for the promo - yes, I think so.
        "Qualifying purchases can receive a discount equal to the value of the eligible Apple Gift Card off the price of the eligible product and will be charged for all items at check-out, including the Apple Gift Card."

      How did you get $80 saving? I know you cannot claim the $80 Apple gift card at the time of purchase.

      • rkm on 25/11/2022 - 01:01

        It charged me full $399, its just a way of representation from Apple, saying you saved $80 in this purchase. $80 Gift card will be sent once item is processed.
        Subtotal A$ 399.00
        Free Shipping A$ 0.00
        Order Total A$ 399.00
        Total savings A$ 80.00 (this will be sent as gift card)

        • edfoo on 25/11/2022 - 01:03

          Ah not exactly though. You still paid $399 for the APP2, you just have $80 store credit to spend on something else later.

          • rkm on 25/11/2022 - 01:07

            @edfoo: yes true, after all its Apple - even in a simple confirmation email they know what/how to write/represent :P
