Everyone's favourite NordVPN has a massive cashback increase at Cashrewards for any new customers who missed out on previous deals. Offer ends Feb 13 11:59pm AEDT.

Be sure to check the terms below and TA's handy tips here

Special Terms

Cashback is eligible for new NordVPN customers only.

Cashback is eligible only on NordVPN plans, and not on any up-sold products such as NordPass & NordLocker.

Cashback may be ineligible if using codes not listed on Cashrewards, and ineligible on any payments made with Crypto currency.

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.

    Plus it's NordVPN's birthday, so purchase a 2 year plan to win 3 or 12 extra months of subscription time!

  • CrispyCrunchy on 11/02/2023 - 19:18

    Why is it showing 68% off?

    • mandelbrot on 11/02/2023 - 19:30

      It's 68% off their normal price. But the cashback is 96% of whatever you pay

  • dirtyhen on 11/02/2023 - 19:26

    What do you use VPN mostly for?

    • vodamerc on 11/02/2023 - 19:56

      Privacy and fast international speeds due to most local servers being GSL networks.

        • vodamerc on 11/02/2023 - 20:43

          Turn off threat protection and use your local server. International servers will be crap if you are with an ISP like vocus for example

            @vodamerc: I'm on Starlink, threat protection is off. I'm in Tassie, so the closest server is Melb, connecting to that one does seem faster than international ones.

    Y'all make sure you pick the standard plan too, as the cashback only applies on the vpn, not the bolt ons.

      I'm using it now to watch a live youtube stream via USA. Haven't had a hiccup. I only really use it for that and watching some BBC and Channel 4 stuff and haven't had any issues of lag or freezing.

    • Goose93 on 12/02/2023 - 08:41

      I had so many problems with NordVPN.
      I tried it for a year (out of a three year plan) and spent majority of my time with connection drop outs, white loading screens (they never timed out or presented an error), and issues reconnecting if there was a disconnect for some reason.

      I contacted their help desk 114 times in that year, where they had me try configure multiple different settings from “Auto” down to custom IPs and static connections.
      They never got their product to work and refused to refund me my money saying it was “past the return window”.

      I changed ISPs twice during that year also, so I know it wasn’t my provider being the problem.

      • FredAstair on 12/02/2023 - 09:24

        Any idea why people are downvoting you.¿

          No idea honestly.
          I was sharing my personal experiences with Nord and being transparent.

          There’s good and bad with all businesses/services.

          However I have found some people seem to get really defensive about a business they have no personal association with, purely other than buying a product. (Think Apple v Android debate nonsense)

    Pretty sure all the people complaining about slow speed have the Nord threat protection active. Straight vpn connection is always brilliant for me, only ~5% speed loss from my max connection speed. (To be expected with wireguard)

  • Cozzie on 11/02/2023 - 19:51

    Does this VPN allow you to watch Netflix contents from other countries?

        • agentzero on 12/02/2023 - 10:57

          It will lock you out until you do one of three things: transfer the “extra member” to a separate account, add the “extra member” user for $x/month (one additional user for Standard plan or two additional user for Premium) or enter your vacation access code to give you 7 days of access before locking the “extra member” again.

        That's California which does have state sales tax, not Oregon which doesn't.

        97035 is a post code for Portland, Oregon.

        • ace310 on 11/02/2023 - 21:03

          Was going to say the same.

          By the way how stable is the connection if I want to use it for torrents?

        • superbass on 11/02/2023 - 22:28

          I used that (and others too) and worked fine.

        • mandelbrot on 12/02/2023 - 15:01

          Interestingly I used Oregon and didn't get charged GST. But the cashback that was confirmed assumed the amount I paid included GST, so CB was only 96% of 10/11th of the price I paid.

      @harper, I did the same mistake and requested the refund. I will use another email address if I decide to purchase it again when the offer is back later.
      Can I request you to check Payment Details under Nord Account -> Billing -> Subscriptions?
      I noticed the card details are wrong under my Nord acc, so I am worried where my refund will go!
      Thx.

      Windscribe

    Anybody got 12 months free? I got only 3 :(

  • Nedkellyinthebush on 12/02/2023 - 00:04

    This deal has links to Cashrewards referrals only but it should link NordVPN referrals too! Both referrer and referee gets an extra 3 months
    So if you haven’t done it, just go to the ozbargain’s NordVPN page and get your referral! https://www.ozbargain.com.au/deals/nordvpn.com
    I suppose this could be done without breaking cashback? Can anybody confirm?

    PS seem to get more buffering lately, using cansas city for HBO. Experienced the same on BBC iPlayer. PS threat protection off.

  • M00Cow on 12/02/2023 - 08:20

    • G-rig on 12/02/2023 - 08:30
      +1

      Yep standard. Others had to get refunds and do it again.

      Cashback is eligible only on NordVPN plans, and not on any up-sold products such as NordPass & NordLocker.

      Ps. was going to leave postcode blank - I think they'd know you're in AUS unless using a VPN at time of signup.
      GST handy if want to claim on tax and if you need to identify your account.

  • ace310 on 12/02/2023 - 08:27

    Got it via United States, oregon for a total of usd $83.76. Cashrewards tracked it as $109.39 cashback. Haven't done the math as how much it cost me but is less than $10 for sure after all conversion fees.

    • G-rig on 12/02/2023 - 09:22

      So you paid in USD or just the postcode to avoid GST? Looking at the OP they say it converts to USD anyway so maybe it will work.

      83.76 US Dollars = 121.15986 Australian Dollars
      No brainer, may as well avoid the GST as well - but thought cashback was just for aus purchases.

      • ace310 on 12/02/2023 - 09:24
        +1

        Paid in usd via wise as I already had part of usd in account. Plus wise has better conversion rate.

          oh right, i've got mc and visa cards that do international for free, rates are good.
          Did your tracking come through?
          Could always try out Revolut i guess.

          ps. remember to cancel subscription auto-renewal in the settings (https://my.nordaccount.com/), as they try and bill ya before the exp date
          pps. reckon there will be another one of these deals before mid-end March?

  • gumbs on 12/02/2023 - 09:00

    Is this reliable enough to run 24/7 on a server and have auto restart enabled?

    I have a life time getflix VPN from the days when Netflix US had much better content. But it's flakey and their app doesn't auto restart. I'd consider paying for something better but only if it's actually better….

    • sessionzero on 12/02/2023 - 09:15

      It could be my setup but I've had a bit of trouble using the NordVPN app in a 24/7 environment. It eventually consumes huge amounts of memory and dies. I'm now using the OpenVPN client with a NordVPN config and it's rock solid. May be different for you of course but what I experienced.

    Make sure you disable auto renewal in settings after you set up. They auto renewed me several weeks before my subscription expired at almost 3 times the original rate. No notification before billing, no options just a big fat credit card charge.

    No GST because i live with the penguins.
    That's only 88.5% cashback.?????

    • G-rig on 12/02/2023 - 11:36

      Well there shouldn't be any GST if opted out of that by not paying it to start with
      still save 10$ so either way alright.
