    I cannot see this anywhere.

    • It's just advertised at the moment, the challenge should appear in time.

      • advertised as being on 1 Feb?

        • Yep, $5 bonus on $50 spend and SB Plus is all the info it gives.

  • Will buying a $50 gift card and using the monthly $5 off ShopBack plus qualify for this bonus?

    • +2

      We'll know once the challenge appears and we see the full T&Cs, every other similar past deal has been fine with both (using the $5 off coupon and buying GCs).

    • That would be awesome

  • +5

    Never using shopback again! Used it during the eBay 10% cashback black Friday sale and 2 transactions didn't get tracked. Unable to even file missing cashback anymore

    • +1

      Contact their customer service and ask them on what grounds they are rejecting your cash back! If we don’t make a splash, they will take us for granted!

      • +2

        I tried from the app but it won't let me file a claim. I'll navigate to see if there's other options to contact their CS

      • +1

        I think Trump has been through their customer support team and fired them all.

    • -4

      You get this with every cashback platform though.

      Usually just means your adblocking software is too strict or you're doing something else incorrect.

      I've done $1800 worth of cashback with Shopback and haven't had an issue in a long time now, but I am pretty careful with following all the steps.

      • +5

        I knew someone would say this. I shop with CR and TCB and I've experienced maybe 1 issue. With SB, it's almost every transaction with issues.

        • -2

          You're almost certainly doing something wrong then. I've had issues with CR myself which is why I went back to SB after initially moving away from SB because of issues. Since moving back 2 or so years ago it's been good for me.

          Once you realize they're all the same with similar issues you realize it doesn't matter so much.

          For some reason people try and make this into some us vs them debate though. Hate the way our culture is going with that crap and making even which Cashback app you use some political argument.

          If you're unsure just google cashrewards or topcashback tracking issues. Guess what you'll find?

  • +3

    Nope - no more shopback. Ban them from this platform. They are regularly rejecting legitimate cashback claims and it's got to the point where it's actually silly. Negged.

    Admins: ban shopback.

  • +7

    Another downvote for ShopBack. They have a recent history of conveniently not tracking items, and customer support has been nonexistent.

    Realistically should be banned on this site until they get their house in order.

  • +3

    Ban Shopback from Ozbargain. So many issues with cashback either not tracking or tracking incorrect amount while their customer service is as useful as a bucket with no bottom.

    • +1

      Bucket with no bottom can at least be used to cover their asses

  • It is not a deal of there is price to join!?

    • +2

      There are plenty of deals posted here that require subscriptions (Prime only deals etc.), price to join is not a deal breaker.

      In this case you also get a $5 coupon for GCs when you join.

    • It is a deal

  • Not showing on my app yet

  • +3

    Surprised to read these comments about SB not tracking… I use all 3 and haven't had any issues (touch wood). Use the in app browser and/or a dedicated web browser only for cashback purchases and clear cookies via "manage site data" each time

  • Still, nothing showing. Where do you know this from, OP?

    • First banner on the SB website home page, on the app home tab, scroll down a little to see the SB Plus ad.

    • It doesn't start until Midnight tonight AEST

      • +3

        It starts at 4pm!

        • Aaah - thanks!

  • +1

    I see a 20% off Amazon gift card too but it says its for a $20 gift card but only offers a $10 one 🤔

    • It says 20% on a $10 gift card for Amazon and it worked. $2 Cashback tracked.

  • +4

    This challenge entitles you to a $5 bonus Cashback when you spend at least $50 (inclusive of GST, exclusive of delivery & all other fees) at online stores, on Gift Cards or in-store via ShopBack

    • +1

      Just bought $50 super swap, let's see if it tracks for the bonus

      • Same, did you pay with Westpac for the extra 1%.

        • Yeah did, normal SB and westpac tracked, the bonus $5 hasn't moved.

  • +1

    It seems plus day is 4 - 9.59pm only. So only a quarter day?

  • Does anyone know if purchasing a $50 Amazon gift card would be fine?

    • +1

      Yes, includes gift card purchases, so effectively $50 Amazon GC for 10% discount from 4pm.

      • Thanks :)

  • Does multiple purchases to make up $50 work?

  • Bought $50 Amazon GC but hasn't flagged for completion of the challenge yet…

    • Same

  • +1

    Has any other Shopback Plus members received their monthly $5 off gift card promo code? I've tried buying different cards of $50 and there's no code there to apply despite SB taking their membership fee for this month :(

    • My advice next time once u get your monthly members special, cancel it straight away, it will come up again to entice you to re-join at the beginning of every month, thats how I see it…

    • Got mine last night. It doesn't show when you tap apply coupon on the checkout page?

    • +2

      https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/16220874/redir It takes an extra day after payment lately

      • +1

        Weird, mine was available immediately.

        Of course I forgot to apply it to the $10 Amazon deal and ended up using it on a Giveaway purchase.

  • Bought $50 SB fuel card 20 mins ago, $5 bonus hasn't yet tracked

    • They stated that the bonus will be added within 48 hours.

    • Mine still hasn't tracked either, got the $50 ampol

  • Bought $50 swap, says 5.04 to go on the promo???

    Nvm it tracked a different purchase but the GC purchase yet

  • Bait and switch, not responsive to support, basically ignore you and no recourse

  • I purchased at the Bose Store, and the bonus tracked quickly. My wife bought a $50 ShopBack home swap card, but the bonus was not tracked on her account.

    • +1

      Same, bought $50 super swap and has not tracked for $5 bonus cashback. Always worked in previous $5 promos.

      • +1

        Mine isn’t tracked yet for super swap but it says up to 48hrs, hopefully it comes through

  • Has anyone’s gift card purchase got the 5 dollar bonus yet ?

    Everything tracked a month ago on the exact same promo.
    I did exactly the same thing yesterday - joined ShopBack plus, bought a $50 gift card and paid 45 using the five dollar discount , got the normal cashback but haven’t got the five dollar bonus yet. A month ago everything tracked within five minutes.

    • I made the same transaction yesterday, and the result is the same as yours so far.

  • -1

    Did not track

    • Yeah super swap didnt track for the bonus yet…

      • I bought SB Fuel Card

  • -1

    Still nothing! 48 hours are up tomorrow then I will complain!

  • bought an amazon $50 GC and still hasnt tracked the $5. My GC cashback moved to confirmed this morning. I bet another failure again from SB.

  • @gotyourback can you look at this?

  • Still hasn't tracked.

  • No tracking yet either

  • It has beyond 48 hours timeframes without tracking, So Annoyed 😠

    • It is not beyond 48 hours yet. Let us keep this factual. Earliest you could have bought under this offer is 4pm Saturday.

  • +2

    @gotyourback How do we report a missing cashback for these types of promo? In the 'Report a Missing Cashback' form on the app, the ShopBack gift cardss option is greyed out and it says 'Not eligible for cashback'.

    • +2

      I've sent an email to [email protected].

      • +1

        We'll get someone to be on it! Sorry about this

  • @gotyourback enlighten us. Still no cashback tracked.

  • Imagine this not tracking :/

  • +4

    No bonus tracking for super swap

    • +1

      Same. A rare fail for me mine always track

  • This is quite frustrating.

  • Bonus didn't track like everyone else.

  • +1

    Pathetic. Same transaction last month got me the $5 cashback; this time around, no cashback (yet). Negged until I get my cashback.

    • Cashback manually applied after contacting Shopback. A man of my word, negative vote retracted.

  • Hasn’t tracked for me either

  • +1

    Bonus didn't track, contacted the support and got a case no. Let's see how it goes.

  • +3

    Upon reviewing the challenge progress, it appears that the challenge has already been fully redeemed prior to your cashback being tracked.

    I understand that this can be disappointing but the challenge bonus is running in real-time and it is based on a first come first serve basis if your order was tracked after the challenge has been fully redeemed then you will not qualify for the bonus.

    However, we value your support and we'll proceed to manually credit the missing $5 Cashback for this time off as goodwill. It will be reflected within 48 hours.

    Since when was it advertised as limited redemptions??

    Seems like a cop out as it didn’t track for anyone?

    • +2

      Wow total bs… It's also a plus only event, so they limit numbers for plus members?

    • +3

      Sorry @gotyourback, but it was not advertised as a limited redemption offer. The T&Cs, which I have a copy of, do not state this.

    • The T&C does state 'Available while redemptions last'. I bought my gift card at 5.03pm aedst and it didn't track. They either had very limited redemptions this time, there was a massive rush at 4pm or they are telling you porkies. Or gift cards just didn't track properly as noone in this thread has confirmed they had a gift card purchase track for the challenge.

    • +1

      Just got the same reply. Seems like a copy and paste as I also got a $5 goodwill cashback. Lots of negativity regarding ShopBack lately, seems like it's becoming justified.

      • I guess I need to email them to get this $5 good will BS…. I got my family members onto this too… what a mission to get their $5.

    • Also another thing

      I don’t think anyone else here has had that $5 bonus track yet either. I think Shopback’s just lying.

      Anyone here that has had the $5 bonus track yet??
      Provide a screenshot if possible?

    • +4

      I bought a GC 5-10 minutes after it started and it didn't track, so limited redemptions is just a poor excuse.

    • Limited redemptions is 100% a cop out. Even the Amazon 20% bonus on $10 giftcard hasn't progressed, although that has at least paid out.

      • +1

        I just checked the terms and it does say while redemptions last, but that’s vague , usually that means during the promo period what a load of garbage , I’m annoyed

    • That's not the way SB do this type of promotions, I suspect the rep just made up some excuse. Has anyone heard from GYB?

      • GYB is now just a generic user for Shopback customer "support", not a specific person as it used to be.

        • Oh dear that makes me sad.

    • Lies. SB was known for displaying # of # rewards remaining for challenges which pissed people off when they bought with too few rewards remaining (AFAIK it has been a long time since they've done one; not displaying that number would piss even more ppl off). And they said the same for the Amazon GC which did not run out of stock.
