    Entertainment's heyday was in the era of the paper book. I used to be able to swap vouchers to keep going to my favourite places. Probably not great for the business, but definitely good for me. When they went to the app all that stopped, and that's when it started to go down hill. Not sure how popular it is these days but I hardly hear anyone talking about it anymore. Bring back the paper book haha.

    • Splashtash on 05/07/2025 - 22:29

      Agreed… now there is nothing great except maybe Woolies 5% discount on gift cards. Justified if u shop at Woolies a lot

        I'm pretty sure they only offer 4% off Woolworths giftcards, but please correct me if I'm wrong. If it was 5% I'd jump onto it as I spend a lot at Woolworths (there are heaps of other options for getting 4% off).

          oh gosh whats that company that went bust in your profile.

      It went down hill when the company got purchased by BPS Technology (now called IncentiaPay). They lost the spirit of the book. It used to be free for businesses to have a listing. Now they want $10k!

      It’s definitely not as valuable for all of the reasons mentioned so far. I have never not had it, but each year it seems less and less useful, mostly because there are so few offers for cafes compared to in the past. I’ve had a look and I’ve not yet spent what it cost me last year (I still have 2 months left).

      And the app; what a nightmare.

    • ohgee on 05/07/2025 - 23:56

      It's far from what it was then when potential savings were barely worth the cost of the book, sharing with friends definately helped the value proposition. At this point it seems to be a scam for vendors and consumers alike.

      "not great for the business, but definitely good for me"

      I have been signing up on deals similar to this one. Last one I signed up I believe was $70 with a $30 VISA gift card and a $20 David Jones one so I thought I'd take a shot.

      I'd say 70% of the places I go to redeem the offers at just give me a funny look. Sometimes that is handy because they don't even make you 'redeem' the offer. However I've had others so confused by it I swear they think I'm trying to run sort of scam. I was at a small cafe redeeming a 25% offer (I tried there because of the offer) and the lady said "I'll give you the discount but I've worked here X years and I've never heard of that in my life".

      The advantage of the paper book was also that offers didn't get pulled mid year. I've definitely had offers disappear in the app.

      Definitely worth checking the list / app on their website to see if there's any decent offers around you that you will actually use before signing up. If you travel around a bit the multi city can be good as it will often give you somewhere to try for food / entertainment with an offer.

      • Ryder08 on 06/07/2025 - 10:23

        I had the same issue with Dimmi (also called The Fork). You would book a restaurant and redeem a $50 off when you had enough points. When you went to pay you always had to go through multiple staff to get the discount. Most had no idea what Dimmi was and the $50 off was never recorded on the booking (on their side).

          The Eat Club app has a system where you can add their own debit card to your phones wallet. Then you pay the vendor with the card and they automatically apply the discount you redeemed to your total bill.

          Very nice system because you don’t even need to tell the vendor your using 25 - 45% off your bill.

          • Kanosha on 06/07/2025 - 11:17

            @D0OMZDAYZ: I haven't tried this yet but that sounds like a better system than trying to argue with the staff for the discount.

          • Mingenibbler on 06/07/2025 - 11:37

            @D0OMZDAYZ: I use EatClub and it’s great once you get over the initial anxiety

            • ElCrypto on 06/07/2025 - 13:16

              @Mingenibbler: Anxiety that the card wont work or something else?

              • Mingenibbler on 07/07/2025 - 10:24

                @ElCrypto: About the card not working and the process having some error that either embarrasses me or inconveniences someone else. I’m extremely low income and have severe anxiety disorder haha so maybe an outlier compared to most ppl who could probably eat a full price bill if technical difficulties arose.

            I accidentally used my default payment card instead of the eat club payment card and offer not redeemed. They contacted me and refunded the discounted amount after I submitting payment evidence.

            highly recommended

    All near me 25% off and only three / searching the site a few better BUT in the old days mostly 2 4 1 / Not worth it in my opinion

    • hamza23 on 05/07/2025 - 21:46

      You will also find that quite a few of the businesses with 25% off are 20% off via NRMA Blue which you can grab for free at the moment.

      • dimant on 06/07/2025 - 07:10

        Agreed NRMA discounts are same and at the same location for most of the eateries. Even available outside NSW as well.

    If you have HSBC Savings, they give free access to it too. I got it before when I opened my account and it has been useful. Not sure if it is exactly the same as this paid version but it is called HSBC Instant Savings - Frequent Values by Entertainment for anyone who wants to dig deeper.

    • John on 05/07/2025 - 23:49

      Yes the savings are a bit lower (like 20% instead of 25%) but I think that is offered to Credit Card holders, which is no longer fee even for Premiere member.

      • streetsmart on 06/07/2025 - 00:05

        oh okay, I've had it for a while. Shame they removed for Premier, thanks for the info.

      • streetsmart on 06/07/2025 - 23:30

        Apparently, only for credit cards now and as above, the discounts are not the same as paid version. Got the access 3.5yrs ago when I opened a savings account (Premier).

    Agreed that it’s not of much value anymore
    You can tell by their desperation to sell these - they’re giving away $30 gift card, plus a free upgrade.
    Even that won’t be enough to convince people who’ve purchased the app version and found the offers useless

    I get better offers in the Linkt app, even my electricity provider AGL has similar or better offers - and there is no extra membership required than what I’m already paying them as a customer

    So, anyone reading this comment -and planning to buy one - DONT

    • lunartemis on 06/07/2025 - 06:41

        Not loyalty as such, but they have a tab in the app for 'Rewards' and there are some decent offers there from time to time. They have also been doing a bunch of competition promos recently, I won $20 toll credit last week.

  • Chris17 on 06/07/2025 - 08:25

    Entertainment’s sad decline reminds me of Groupon’s.

    I was in America when Groupon and its rivals first came out. With all the referral bonuses and cashbacks, plus scores of dummy email accounts, at one stage I was literally being paid to eat at cafés around New York and New Jersey. Now Groupon is scammy rubbish - just like Entertainment.

  • Headless on 06/07/2025 - 08:38

    i bought this last year at the same price and yeah, waste of money
    Hotel & flight premium discounts (exclusive) are not exclusive at all, but are premium (often higher cost)

    Used to be fantastic

  • dammitjay on 06/07/2025 - 09:30

    Lot of negs on here so I thought worth giving the other side. In the past 12 months, 22 offers redeemed at $523 estimated value. I never have an issue justifying the purchase. We dine out a decent amount and whenever I'm a different part of the city (Perth), usually check here first for a place we've never been to. It's been pretty good discovering new places to eat.

  • souths123 on 06/07/2025 - 10:10

    a few years ago I got 3 months for 99c, still not worth it as I used nothing in there. I can get discounts through NRMA rewards for dining, Cheapeats and first table for free. Used to use The Fork all the time too before they left Australia. I can also get 5% discount on WW gift cards through NSW Seniors, plus I also get the Restaurant Choice gift cards when 10% off and use those as well….occasionally The Best Restaurant on special as well, but that isn't as good.

  • Vienta on 06/07/2025 - 10:31

    Key points to note and be aware

    • Many merchants/business refuse to honor their discount when dispite their business is in the Entertainment app.
    • Surcharge applied when purchase gift card.
    • Check area you often visiting and see if there is enough number of business like resturants and cafe you want to visit in that book to justify the purchase.
    • Many good and value for money offer has long gone in Entertainment book you hardly find why spend this money to have book.
  • skew on 06/07/2025 - 11:08

    Definitely had some value from it in the past. Used it for quite a few B1G1F not necessarily food. E.g. Rock climbing saved around $30 and a also used for several good cafes. We easily made up the value of it when purchased on discount. Seems better value is found in Perth.

  • odysseus on 06/07/2025 - 11:34
    +1

    I also still get value from it. The others mentioned here are good in the CBDs, but don't have good coverage outside it. However, entertainment has better coverage in the suburbs than them. So I can understand if you are mostly in the city then you're fine with the others but outside it still has value, as that's the only program I find with offers for many places.

    Haven't had any problems redeeming though of course it could happen but doesn't seem a general problem. Lots of people comparing to 'what used to be' but like with other discounts it's all about what you can get now, not any use saying something was cheaper years ago, which doesn't help now.

  • ruddiger7 on 06/07/2025 - 13:37

    The app sucks, vendors can leave whenever they please. I booked chinese down the road and over the span of a couple of days they removed themselves from the app. Of course they couldnt do that with the book.

  • Bargainitis on 07/07/2025 - 16:21

    I still get value out of this app but you have to be targeted with the right vendors.

    For $70 cost, I get way more value from it.
