    Hey guys. Just confirming the original banner contained an error. Terms are definitely $45 for you (referrer), $20 for your friend (referred), and your friend has 180 days to earn $10 in cashback (excluding bonuses & VPN purchases).

    Also note that the $45 won’t appear in your account until such time your friend has achieved the $10 in pending cashback.

    You can keep track of all your referrals on the following link:

    All the best ☺️

    • Hey TA, can the 'friend' be a family member - specifically my sibling who lives in the same house as me and uses the same internet connection?

      • Why not, different email right? Some people log on at work or public WiFi - same ip address

        • +3

          failed for my family member, did ask why and been told same IP

    • Just clarifying that the random referral links that we have here on Ozb will get the $45 /$20(referred)?

      The banner is updated. I'm just not sure if the random referral links are the same link?

    • Hi TA, quick question, if i refer a family member and they purchase a lyca sim, will the bonus earned from that count towards the referral spend? As it does fulfil the $10 cashback earned criteria..

      • +1

        Hey. It's an eligible purchase, and provided all criteria is met on the retail page, then sure. Cheers.

        • Thanks very much! So, i should disregard the comments above stating that referring a family member living in the same household will not count as a valid referral?

          My mom lives in the same house as me, can i refer her?

            • @trixieb: Yes would love clarification as i read their t and cs which say one per person, and we both are different persons so it should be ok i guess? Better to have clarification for joint families with multiple people in the same household sharing same internet but have their own devices

    shopback vs topcashback which one is better?

    • +13

      whichever has the higher cashback at the time :)

      • The only correct answer.

        (That said, some people will use TCB's guarantee on top of SB's cashbacks to get double pizza orders on the days there were 100% cashback.)

        • wow…. never thought of that, and didnt even know there was free pizza.

    $10 in 14 days is a step backwards (was 180 days), not sure if it's permanent.

      • Spending $20 is way easier than earning $10 cashback.

        TC always had the best rate but worse conditions for earning the bonus, now it's even harder.

    • Hmm good point should probably be highlighted as i assumed it was a $10 spend like previous ones.

      • It has always been $10 earned for TC, the difference now is that it's 14 days instead of 180.

        Edit: It has been changed back to 180 days.

        • Is TCB watching this post?

          P.S. Will delete previous comments to avoid confusing future readers.

        • Oh right, got confused with shopbacks $20 spend. Takes me ages to earn $10 when there isnt a Boost or Pizza hut challenge anymore lol

  • can I be your friend ?

  • +1

    D'oh! Signed up yesterday using the INSTA code…

  • +3

    with CR is closing down, I guess I'll be joining TC for my cashback.

  • I never got mine after referring someone and they did make an eligible purchase. Contacted support and they keep denying my claim.

    • Eligible purchase must be payable.

      Hi @y33tcity. Would love to hear from you directly so I can look into this. I find it extremely difficult to believe a genuine referral would be declined. Cheers.

    Good timing TA

    Wishing you luck in your new shop, assuming lots of lessons learnt from CR!

    Signed up last night, missed $10, and random referrer also missed $10.

  • Can the friend use the $5 on $20 spend too?

  • +3

    No wonder Cash Rewards is folding. TCB has been killing it on the cash back front for a while now. TightArse seems to be the kingmaker for these services lol. Awesome work to the TCB team.

      But have to give kudos to CR for even approving all pending cashbacks.
      Normally users will just lose anything not yet withdrawed, much like bankruptcy scenarios.

  • enjoy your referral bonus JimmyJam!
