Link ShopBack Cashback to Purchase?

I made multiple purchases from Amazon during the recent sales, and obviously have multiple cashbacks listed. My question is: how can I link a particular ShopBack cashback to a specific purchase? I can see a ShopBack transaction ID and obviously the seller that you purchased from, but it seems other than trying to reverse engineer the amount there's no way of knowing which one is which.

Maybe this is by design (privacy?) but thought maybe that there'd be at least something like the order number or something.

  • I’m in a similar situation and first off have just starred all of the Amazon order emails, then screenshot the Shopback activity.
    It’s a little basic, but I would just make a list of the orders from the Amazon order emails (because they have the only exact time/date of the order) from the first to the last (with the times/dates listed) then go through the Shopback activity screenshot and pair them up in the same order. I know the Shopback listings probably all have the same time and date, so that’s why you can really only go from oldest to newest, and pair them up that way. That’s only if they still say “Calculating”. Obviously if there is a specific cashback amount you can work out which order that would be from, I hope. If not, just continue the method above.
    TL;DR, make a list of the orders from first to last and match them with Amazon Shopback activity listings first to last.
    Does that make any sense? I’ve only had 2 hours of stress sleep. My brain 😵‍💫

    • Thanks yeah I tried doing it that way as well, but I'm not sure whether the sequence bears any relation. E.g. in my case I had one order ship (delivered yesterday) - I bought 6x Sensodyne toothpastes from a deal here, which was $33.74 total. Then I receive a cashback complete email for $8.84, which seems excessively large for that order?

      It's also the middle of the list of 3 orders that are tracked, but chronologically, it was the first item I purchased.

  • I think it's a common issue with Shopback. No way to easily separate multiple purchases from the same store. I usually have to use the price and cashback amount to link them.

    I know for hotel bookings they use the booking reference which makes it easy to link

  • Use an Excel spreadsheet.
