    Might be targeted, was on my For You page.

  • +2

    mine says Purchase(s) must be made by 18 May 2025 11:59 PM. T&C says otherwise

    • Same, I wonder which date is correct - although I've already used the offer.

  • Not on my FY page, unfortunately

    Getting an error when trying to buy Amazon GC on the app but worked fine on the website.

    • Yep, error whatever I try to buy on the app. And online no $50 denomination GC's that I want.

  • Spend $500 or more & get $50 bonus cashback

    mmm pass

    • lol, what a rip-off.

    • +6

      Works to be 10% too so whats wrong

      • +5

        That offer is only if you spend $500 at TGG.

  • i don't have it

  • +1

    thx OP. got $50 amazon GC. 12% discount all up - not bad.

  • Thank OP

  • +1

    Got spend $50 get $3 not bad

  • +1

    Didnt take up the spend $50 get $3 and received this one.

    Does anyone else have to jump through hoops to find the 'For You' page? I have to scroll right down to the bottom of the page to find it. There has to be an easier way.

    • In the App it's the second tab at the bottom (on all screens). Very hidden away on the website though.

    • +1

      Same here. I took this one. Will probably miss out on 'Spend $50 save $10' next week

  • On average, how long does it take for the bonus to show up?

    • Previous promo for me applied the bonus instantly. I just bought an Amazon GC for $50 after activation. The 2% tracked but not the bonus yet.

      • Hasn't shown up for me yet.

        • +1

          Neither. I wonder if we should chase up.

          • @dealz4all: Hasn't shown up for me either.

          • @dealz4all: Shows 'Pending Approval' on the banner in the My Offers tab. Might be worth waiting.

    • +1

      My confirmed cashback just came through.

      • So did mine :)

      • Mine too. Took about 9 hours for me for both the promo $5 and the cashback to be approved.

  • Mine's $3 bonus cb on $50 spend, but I did also use the same deal from the weekend so that might be why it's lower

  • +3

    probably for those who didn't activate the $3/$50 one, listen learned lol

    • +2

      I hear you.

    • +4

      I listened, i got $5/$50

    • +1

      Haha, lesson :D

    • I activated, but missed, so $5 off this time

  • Thanks got $5 for $50..will load up amazon

  • The picture in the e-mail and account still shows Catch.

    The promotion may end on 18th or 25th.

  • +2

    They need to fix or replace their payment gateway service. Always have a problem verifying/accepting CCs.

    • And accept American Express!

      • +1

        lol they would be losing money accepting Amex. People will buy $3000 worth of GC at once

  • The email states the end date is 18 May and that the promotion is only open to members who receive an invitation directly from Cashrewards. The T&C's state

    This promotion is open to members who have successfully activated the bonus offer within their Cashrewards account (“Eligible Entrants”) and is valid between 1st May 2025 12am AEST and 31 May 11:59pm AEST (“Promotional Period”).

    This may not require an emailed invitation? Attention to detail is lacking.

  • Didn't take up the spend $50 get $3 and received this one.

  • +1

    What a teamwork….

    Deal page

    • Yes not good.

    • The left-hand didn't speak to the right-hand…common in large organisations, eg NEW staff get thrown in the deep-end etc

  • Considering a gamble on a 7-Eleven gift-card to buy FUEL @ Mobil, BP or Ampol ?

    Feb-25 & Mar-25 gamble was a success but things can change quickly & there's NO 7-Eleven store nearby…@WookieMonster / anyone?

    • I used a 7-Eleven digital gift card at Shell Reddy Express last week. That is the latest I know.

    • It's known to work perfectly fine. Though if you're worried about it being revoked in the future just buy the Cashrewards Fuel & Auto Gift Card instead.

      • 7-Eleven GC $50, Cashrewards-Fuel GC $100…thanks for your suggestions though.

    • Ampolcash has higher 2.5% cashback

      • +1

        Thanks for suggestions. On RE-consideration, I'll wait for the future $5 bonus with LOWER-spend, https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/899389

        I've a few gift-cards, including AmpolCash & I can't spend them fast enough, lol.

  • Jan-25 purchases were approved ~ $10, but I did NOT meet their criteria. This include $5 activation via email which I thought was easy-tracking by CashRewards. Replicate this tracking error 100 times & the loss is in the thousand. How can CashRewards survive? 😱

    • Maybe Cashrewards has changed their system & display of Promotional-Bonus @ DESKTOP & APP?

      I did received CR-email & activatED it via DESKTOP-Firefox-browser. Observations @,
      DESKTOP-Firefox-browser: there's NO-display of $5 Cashrewards Promotional Bonus. Past activationS were shown as pending @ My-Rewards & subject to meeting criteria.
      Chrome-browser using Android15-mobile-phone: I click on 🤍, @ Your-Promotions, this offer is shown as Active(blue-highlighted)…End 18-May.
      CashRewards-APP-Android15: same as 'Chrome-browser using Android15-mobile-phone'

      The complexity of these system, being,
      a.DESKTOP: WindowsOS & mac-OS…& the many browsers people can-use.
      b.Mobile-phone-OS: Android15 & iOS…& the many browsers people can-use.

      All these supported systems: likely separate-datasets that need to interface with a CENTRAL-system.

      Maybe tracking has a HIGHER success-rate with purchases via CashRewards-Android-APP & then proceed to retailer-partner via Chrome-browser?

  • +2

    Has anyone’s purchase been tracked ? The deal FY is activated but no signs of tracking the 5bucks.

    • Actually no, normally it appears pending soon as activated right? Mines not there even after the cashback for the gift card purchase is tracked

      Edit. On the offer banner itself it says pending approval

    • +1

      They have changed the system.

      Previously they used to add the $5 cashback as a PENDING entry within your list of tracked purchases.
      Now, it just sits under the FOR YOU link as PENDING APPROVAL.

      In a nutshell, they have gone backwards in terms of user experience.

  • ebay? Coles?

    • +2

      Buy the Cashrewards Liquor Gift Card, go to Liquorland and pay for a Coles Myer GC using it.

  • I got $5 cashback on $20 spend.

    • My 15-May-25 email noted min. $50 spend. Is your comments relate to this deal?

  • Alright bought, let's see how it goes

  • Already got my 2% and the $5 from my Amazon GC

  • +1

    just got the bonus cashback approved

  • In anyway we can buy coles or Woolworths gift card through cashrewards?

    • Buy the Cashrewards Liquor Gift Card, go to Liquorland and pay for a Coles Myer GC using it.

      • Tnnx

    • Shell gift card can buy you Coles/Myer gift cards at Coles express or similarly if 7-eleven gift card is accepted at Coles express or Ampol. Not sure if ampol has woolies gift cards though

      • +3

        I was able to use a 7-Eleven digital gift card to purchase a Coles Group & Myer gift card at a Shell Reddy Express earlier today, but a lot of Shell Reddy/Coles Express service stations appear to not stock them for some reason.

        EG Ampol service stations sell WISH gift cards, but EG have set up their checkouts to automatically reject 7-Eleven digital gift cards and Cashrewards Fuel & Auto gift cards as a payment method if you are purchasing any gift cards. (You will get an Items Not Allowed error on the EFTPOS terminal, and the service station attendant will see the same error message on their screen.)

        Ampol Foodary service stations do not sell any gift cards issued by Woolworths Group (e.g. WISH gift cards).

        • Swapping gift-card: what you highlight is the risk of availability & the risk of IT-system blocking purchases…& complex Payment-Gateway system that drive those EFTPOS-machines. Maybe buyers should be cautious when stepping outside the norm, eg using 7-Eleven GC to buy fuel, swapping-GC etc.

          Seems like Woolworth-Group (owns EG-Ampol) don't want to give commission to the owners of 7-Eleven & CashRewards for selling WISH-GC. People swap-GC: they-lose.

          Must be challenging to keep this current, https://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/gift_card_deals_retailer_f…

        I went 2 reddy express today in Adelaide, both don’t sell coles group gifts cards anymore, they said reddy is under OTR now.

  • Expired? Not in my 'For You' section anymore

  • @WookieMonster, why do you think this fail?
    I failed to pay for fuel @ EG-Ampol petrol-station with AmpolCash gift-card: barcode. I applied 'EG-Ampol ADDITIONAL 6c off per litre fuel offer' via scanning my Everyday-Rewards-Card: targeted-promotion ending 11-Jun-25.
    Maybe EG-Ampol blocks AmpolCash gift-card for promo with HIGH-discount ? Thanks.

    • +1

      That is the first time I have heard of that issue.

      What was the error on the EFTPOS terminal (or printed on the rejection receipt)? The error should point to the issue.

      Were you using a digital AmpolCash gift card? If so, I wonder if there is a bug in the EG Ampol checkout that caused the error. I know this person stacked an Everyday Rewards card and the RACV discount, but then was not able to stack those with an AmpolCash digital gift card, so that sounded like an error in the checkout.

      I have never had issues stacking an Everyday Rewards card + paper Woolworths fuel voucher + Origin Energy fuel discount + digital or physical AmpolCash gift card in the same transaction (including two weeks ago).

      I think the best thing to do (if you can be bothered) is call EG Ampol and complain to them about the checkout seemingly rejecting your gift card.

      • Weird, https://ibb.co/bMSMHPLC

        Declined…Prod 13 NOT allowed-> 'What was the error on the EFTPOS terminal (or printed on the rejection receipt)?'

        Yes-digital & note that I cut-off the images @ the edge of the barcode that was scanned by the EFTPOS-terminal-> 'Were you using a digital AmpolCash gift card?'

        Whether it's system-bug / intentional-blocking (higher 'ADDITIONAL 6c'), users should ALWAYS consider the risk with gift-cards.

        YOU've been great, candid & open👏. However SOME aren't & falsely give confident to a incentivise-system that has-RISK & people' BAD-experience is littered @ all these gift-card deals….maybe 'wolves in sheep-clothing' lives here 😱

      • Buyers should be cautious with gift-cards because,
        a.Management intentionally block payments: maybe test pay a product with $0.02?
        b.system-bug,

        Payment-Gateway system is complex with checking & blocking. In my case 3 SEPARATE-owners are involved: Everyday-Rewards, EG-AU & Ampol.

        13-Jun-25 phone-call: EG-AU blames it on WPay-Payment-Gateway &/or Ampol: apparently when people buy a AmpolCash-Digital-GC that has a large-discount, it's flag & may be block depending the products &/or discount attempt-payment @ EG-AU. My GC was a gift sourced elsewhere & NOT via OzBargain deal.
