PureVPN: 130% Cashback for New PureVPN Customers @ TopCashback AU

1990

Profit šŸ’° offer is back. Enjoy! Offer expires 9am AEST Monday 29th Sep.

All who purchased from the last offer in August are eligible again. Use a new email address for PureVPN. Same payment card is fine.

Only one (1) PureVPN purchase is permitted per member every 28 days (4 weeks).

My Tips:

  • Choose Max 2-year plan (+ 6 months) US$109.95 for the best value. Do NOT grab the 5-year plan offer in the pop-up. 5-year plan and add-ons are ineligible for cashback.
  • Use a new email for PureVPN if purchased before.
  • Pay with a card without international transaction fees if possible.
  • The tracked amount in your TopCashback account will be slightly lower than what you are charged. This is probably due to the currency conversion fees/taxes as PureVPN reports in USD which is converted to AUD. 130% cashback minus the fees/taxes.
  • If you use PayPal AU, PayPal AU may charge a currency conversion fee. It seems not possible to change the currency to USD to bill the card in USD instead of AUD. These fees are ineligible for cashback.
  • Tracking may take up to 4 hours.
  • If your order doesn't track, please cancel and request for a refund from PureVPN within 31 days under their 31-day money-back guarantee.
  • If you cancel for non-tracking, you can buy again. Use a new email address for PureVPN with the same TopCashback account. Same payment card is fine.
  • You can cancel auto-renewal/subscription after you have received cashback.

It is recommended to use the TopCashback app, click the 'Get 130% Cashback' pink button to the PureVPN website, mobile data (not Wi-Fi) and Chrome browser.

TA's Tips:

  • A new email address for PureVPN is considered a new customer.
  • Prior to using TopCashback, disable/remove all 3rd party plugins (AdBlock, uBlock, Pi-hole, Honey, etc), VPNs, avoid browsers such as Brave and close any additional browser tabs.
  • For iOS device: Apart from ensuring you’re not using an AdBlock app for Safari, the most important one is to ensure you have ā€˜Prevent Cross-Site Tracking’ turned off (see here).
  • Also important to remember that should tracking fail for whatever reason, please cancel using their free 31-day money-back guarantee policy. No point lodging a claim to possibly have it rejected by PureVPN as attributed elsewhere.

What will stop me getting my cashback

  • Cashback is eligible only on 1-year, 2-year, and monthly plans (Standard, Plus, Max). Cashback is ineligible on 5-year plan, Teams multi-user plans, and/or add-ons.
  • Only one (1) PureVPN purchase is permitted per member every 28 days (4 weeks). Check your TopCashback account to confirm last purchase date.
  • PureVPN is excluded from all signup and referral bonus thresholds. Reference the Tell-a-Friend terms for more information.
  • Cashback can only be earned by customers opening a new PureVPN account. Renewals are ineligible for cashback.
  • Cashback is ineligible on payments made with Crypto currency.
  • Cashback is ineligible on use of any codes not approved and posted by TopCashback.
  • Cashback is ineligible on use of gift cards for payment and/or purchase of gift cards.
  • Cashback is ineligible on purchases made via the retailer's mobile app.

What else is essential

  • Cashback is calculated and paid on the advertised cost of the plan only. It will exclude upsold products, GST, other taxes, credit card or PayPal surcharges.
  • PureVPN orders report to your account excluding GST and other taxes, and may show a further difference in purchase amount due to international conversion rates. This is beyond our control.
  • Engaging with plugins such as Honey, AdBlock, uBlock, Pi-hole, VPNs, and browsers such as Brave may prevent your order from tracking.
  • You must accept and allow all 3rd party cookies on the retailer's page if requested.
  • You must always return to TopCashback and click the 'get cashback' button through to the retailer's website for each new transaction. Ensure the TopCashback link is the last one used to visit the retailer's website prior to completing your purchase.
  • To be eligible for cashback, all transactions must be completed solely & wholly online and must not be assisted/negotiated via phone/chat/email. Failure to do so will cause tracking to fail and/or have cashback declined.

      Never works in China so not the best

  • +1

    Thanks, can I purchase 2? One from my TopCB account and one from my partners TopCB?

    • that’s genius! cant believe I never twigged to that

    • Dont see why not. As long as both PureVPN accounts have different and non previously used email addresses

    • Well I decided to not to do that after reading horror stories people have posted here who live in the same household: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/925042

      @trixieb any idea on that? My partner doenst have a TCB account. Does the same household issues happen only for referral system? If my partner sign up with a random referral from ozb can they purchase this vpn and get the cashback successfully? Thanks

      • @Techefy No signup and referral bonuses with VPN purchases. Please note:

        PureVPN is excluded from all signup and referral bonus thresholds.

        Here's TA's reply on 09/09/2025 regarding referrals and multiple accounts:

        Referring a family member is fine, provided the account is operated only by the person you referred (and not by you or anyone else). Please be very careful as the UK fraud team can and will close accounts that self-refer. I can't say much about the tools & processes they have at their disposal, but they are good at what they do. All the best.

        • Thanks for the reply. I did’t mean VPN referrals. I meant TCB referral system.

          My partner doesnt have a TCB account yet. If i send them my referral link to sign up they can use their own mobile device to sign up using mobile data (so I can receive $40 referral bonus in the future).
          Then (not related to any referral) they can purchase this vpn offer to get the profit.
          We will be using the same wifi connection, wondering whether it will cause some troubles.

          • @Techefy: TCB had $50 + $50 referral just earlier… Should have done it earlier tbh.

            • @ATangk: Yeahh missed that, and also $70 bonus. Thinking whether this getting this vpn bonus and referral bonus make it up to that

                • @trixieb: Thanks for the response.

                  I understand that purevpn is excluded from referral threshold. But does that mean ā€œthe first purchase has to be a non-VPN order to be eligible for the bonuses.ā€? Can they purchase the purevpn deal first and satisfy the threashold later to get the bonus referral reward?

                  • +1

                    @Techefy: I messaged TA and deleted my previous replies to avoid confusion. Here's TA's reply:

                    You have 180 days to accumulate $10 in cashback, excluding VPNs and bonuses. Doesn’t matter how many transactions, and does not mean just the first one.

                    Regarding my deleted comment on rejections of referral bonuses for the first order that is a VPN order:

                    And the rejections would have happened due to no other qualifying purchase in 180 days.

                    Hope this clarifies. Sorry for the confusion earlier.

                    • +1

                      @trixieb: Thank you so much for the clarification and reaching out to TA. You are a legend. I’m going to aks my partner to sign up and purchase this ā˜ŗļø

  • Anyone got tracking yet?

    • No, purchased 25 mins ago. Will update. Hopefully it tracks.

      • +1

        I bought about 2 hours ago but it hasn't tracked yet. I have messaged TA to check on tracking. However it is the footy weekend and we are all busy.

        • -1

          If not tracked no point, will wait

          And has nothing to do with footy

        • +2

          Just got tracking email.

          Tracked at $208.49. $39.8 profit.

        • +2

          Mine purchased at 12:24 and got TCB tracking email at 12:47 for $208.49 cashback with $168.69 purchase.

        • +2

          Received tracking email 4 hours ago, sorry forgot to update! Been busy.

          $208.49 AUD tracked, $168.53 AUD paid.

          Profit of $39.96 AUD.

          • @AkuroPlays: That will take 16 weeks so approx $9.99 a month earnings for 4 months

            It's not bad honestly with free VPN use

  • For us mouth droolers who use ChatGPT to work out what we are having for breakfast… if we last signed up on 26th August can we sign up today?

    We need your usual last purchase table!!!

    • +3

      Yes you can. Hence no table needed :)

    • Imagine if there was no 28 day timeframe to wait…

  • -1

    Good investment I did get my cashback

  • +2

    Not going to neg the deal as I guess it is worth it for profit but have had terrible experience with pureVPN. Randomly disabled my service 9months into a 5 year plan and can't get any help from their team. Agree with the negative reviews.

  • When does this end

    • Offer expires 9am AEST Monday 29th Sep. I checked with the rep TA.

  • I was just replying to TA comment. But he unpublished.
    Purchased at 10:18, for 168.69, tracked at 208.49

  • Since my iPhone updated to Ios26 not a single thing has tracked. Previously I had 100% success.
    Any ideas?

    • +1

      @Low Punt With iOS/Safari, please check you have ā€˜Prevent Cross-Site Tracking’ turned off, see here and here. (Credit to @TA and Mod for the screenshots.)

      Use the TopCashback app, click the pink button to PureVPN website. Under Settings, check that the TopCashback app has "Allow Tracking" turned on.

      • Do I need that turned off if I’m using the app and not safari? I generally use the app and then it preloads a site which often makes the respective app load. Eg. Click Aliexpress, Aliexpress seems to load in TCB app, then prompts to open AE app which I allow. Previously no issues . Cheers

        • AliExpress is different as the AliExpress app can be used with TopCashback app for cashback.

          However with PureVPN, you cannot use the PureVPN app for cashback. You would use the TopCashback app, click the pink button to the PureVPN website (not app) to buy the VPN. It could be that there is no tracking with the PureVPN app.

          Do I need that turned off if I’m using the app and not safari?

          Not sure but I've my ā€˜Prevent Cross-Site Tracking' turned off just in case. It was recommended by the rep TA to ensure tracking.

          Also check that the TopCashback app has "Allow Tracking" turned on. It doesn't appear to be turned on by default when I downloaded the TopCashback app.

          TA recommends:

          It is recommended to use the TopCashback app, click the 'Get 130% Cashback' pink button to the PureVPN website, mobile data (not Wi-Fi) and Chrome browser.

  • +5

    Bought Max 2-year plan (+ 6 months) US$109.95. Tracked in about 2.5 hours.

    • Paid AU$168.69 (Using card without foreign fees i.e. Macquarie Bank)
    • Tracked AU$160.38 (Excludes conversion fees, GST etc)
    • 130% Cashback AU$208.49
    • Profit $39.80
  • Charged: $168.69
    Cashback: $208.49
    Profit: $40.4

    • +2

      Is it $39.80? :)

  • Does it support Wireguard?

  • I am overseas right now, would i still be able to get this to work?

    • +1

      I've only seen the "you must physically be in Australia when you order" restriction on Temu offers. If it's not mentioned in the terms, you should be fine.

      If you don't get a tracking notice in about an hour you can just cancel within the 31 day money back guarantee. It's not too painful just chat with them, they send an email asking why and then process the cancellation after you reply.

      • Amazing thanks

        • Yup can confirm if worked for me, tracked!

  • +1

    Every time trying to do this cashback a bit worrying as I have encountered not tracking more than a couple times even have followed the tips on iOS.
    Luckily today all went well even I got payment error message for a couple secs popped up but then account got created> card got charged and cashback tracked an hour later
    Thanks op for the heads up

  • Does the Gmail "." New address trick work?

    • Yes it is :)

      • Oddly enough didn't work for me. Had to create a new email

        • Maybe you can try the +1 method instead as it works for me

  • -2

    It has been 7 hours and still no tracking for me.

    • +1

      the deal was posted 6 hours 30 min ago, mate

  • How long is it taking to get tracked?

    • Mine only takes 10 mins. Placed the order at 15:22 and tracked at 15:32. Impressed.

      • amazingly fast! did you use the app?

        • No, laptop, Edge. I tried app once but didn't use it. I usually use laptop or mobile broswer, always tracks. Much prefer to use laptop.

          • @bbking18: @Ash-Say Mine took 2.5 hours to track. Details here. There was a long delay from the morning purchase.

            • +1

              @trixieb: @trixieb I saw your comments and I am prepared it might take a while to track. So I didn't shutdown my laptop thinking I would check it later. I am really impressed when I saw the email (from my phone) while watching the footy final and I purposely check the time on both emails.

              Thank you so much. I will never know when purevpn deals will be on if you don't post. Appreciate your effort, always.

    • Ordered 16:14, no tracking so far.
      Edge browser with TCB extension installed.

      • Same here - It's been over an hour but still not tracked.

        Hopefully it will track overnight

        • Mine is over 7 hours ago. Still no tracking

        • Anything over 1 hour I doubt it will track. I'm going to cancel tomorrow, I hope no drama with the refund.

          • @OzBestDeal: Likewise if it doesnt track overnight, I am going to cancel tomorrow

            • +1

              @Ash-Say: @OzBestDeal @overule

              Sorry to hear. If still untracked after 6 hours, please cancel and request for a refund from PureVPN (within 31 days under their 31-day money-back guarantee).

              • Log into your account, choose "Subscriptions".

              • At the bottom of page, click "File a refund".
                Can state you need the money as the reason.

              • PureVPN has recently processed refunds quickly with a single request for refund.

              • In the past, PureVPN may not cancel and refund straightaway. There may be several emails from different staff to persuade you to stay with offers. Simply repeat your request to cancel and refund as you need the money (under their 31-day money-back guarantee). You will get the refund after a few emails.

              If you wish to order again, please use a new email address for PureVPN. Same payment card is fine. Not sure why it didn't track but please check the tracking tips in my previous comment.

              I've also had untracked PureVPN orders and asked for a refund. Reordered and it tracked.

              All the best.

              • @trixieb: Is it easier if I file the missing Cashback claim?

                • +1

                  @overule: Unfortunately there could be a high risk of rejection with a missing VPN cashback claim. The rep TA has strongly suggested:

                  Also important to remember that should tracking fail for whatever reason, please cancel using their free 31-day money-back guarantee policy. No point lodging a claim to possibly have it rejected by PureVPN as attributed elsewhere.

                  It is easier to request for a refund as per my steps here.

              • @trixieb: Thanks, I've waited overnight and still no tracking, so I will submit request for refund.
                TCB tracking has been really hit n miss for me. Pizza hut promo and PureVPN didn't track. The only one that tracks are trivagos and chemist warehouse.

                Really bad experience compared to ShopBack.

                • @OzBestDeal: Did you turn off Tracking Prevention in Edge for TCB and the PureVPN sites?

                  • @nategasm: I didn't touch any settings.
                    The TCB extension was green and reported it have access to the site.

  • +4

    Mine tracked in around 15 mins

  • +1

    Tracked in 15 minutes too (from the time in PureVPN welcome email until Topcashback confirmation email). I am impressed 😲

    I still use dot (.) trick for gmail account to be recognised as a new email.

  • hasn't been tracked yet for 80minutes

    • +1

      Mine tracked in 2.5 hours.

      If still untracked after 6 hours, please request for a refund from PureVPN, see here.

      You can reorder with a new email address for PureVPN and same payment card. Please check the tracking tips in the post. Thanks.

      • +1

        Thanks! I requested a refund and reordered it — this time it got tracked within 12 minutes.

  • +1

    Thanks for sharing OP! I didn't realise how frequent this is.
    The last time I did this was in July, so just did another one with Gmail +.

    I never received any confirmation/tracking email from TCB.
    Then I checked email preferences, mine has always been off xD

    When you guys say tracked, does it appear under TCB Earnings as pending?
    If so, that took about 20mins to appear in TCB.

    Nevermind, looks like I'm good.
    When the transaction is first reported, it will be given a ā€˜Pending’ status. This means that the merchant has tracked your transaction and indicated the cashback to be awarded.

    • +1

      Thanks. Your order has tracked and is pending.

      You would also receive an email (if your settings is turned on).

      Here is my purchase history and payment list.

      Ref: What do the statuses 'pending', 'confirmed' and 'payable' mean?

      • Pretty much every month. The problem is when after 5 accounts Google will start to question for a new phone number, etc.

  • +2

    mine tracked pretty quickly. less than 20 mins.

  • Mmm cant purchase with my 28d cards, says my card has declined even though i put in the otp :/

    • Not sure if it's an email issue. Please check here.

      • Totally new email, tcb account, device as I was doing it for my mum lol. Only the credit card was the same

  • July order got paid out. $35 profit. Shall I go for the next round?

    • Go for it!

    • Did it? Mine's still on confirmed

      • +1

        Well mine's confirmed too I thought it was pretty much payable at this stage.

        • Should be, but I'm not going to cancel them until I get the payout.

  • +1

    Thanks, have bought. Tracked in 12 minutes.

  • Anybody know how long it takes to go from pending to confirmed? I just don't want this to get rejected for some reason after the 31 day refund period.
    Cheers

    • Usually after 31 days. Use a new email address for PureVPN if you have bought before (to avoid rejection). Same payment card is fine. I've done a few of these offers and they have been paid in about 3 months.

      Here is my purchase history and payment list.

      Ref: What do the statuses 'pending', 'confirmed' and 'payable' mean?

      • Hey, thanks for replying. I did catch your comment about your transactions and did read that. I just wanted to spread the word to my friends but don't want them to get scammed and have it fall on me haha.

  • Can I cancel the auto subscription after the Cashback get tracked?

    • I prefer to cancel the auto-renewal after the cashback is paid.

  • Got this when it was available about 3 months ago, purchase didn't track, currently awaiting the outcome of a customer ticket submitted 3 months ago.

    • +1

      Was there a reason you didn't request for a refund with their 31-day money-back guarantee as recommended?

      Hope your claim is approved.

  • I purchased on 28th August, Does that mean I need to wait til 29th September to be elligible? or can I buy today on the 28th of September?

    • +1

      You can buy today. Everyone is eligible to buy from the last offer in August. Use a new email address for PureVPN. Same payment card is fine.

  • -5

    Given all the 2 pages of hassles, pain, drama and total fails with VPN & TCB as I read here, it will be a no from me at this time. But good on you all that did succeed thru all those numerous hoops.

    It also amazes me as to how the few constant whingers can constantly attack ING for their 3 requirements for a great interest rate return every month…but are not bagging this crowd? Or are you lurking here as well?

    Bring back Cash Rewards…. Earned a bucket load, super simple and never failed…for me.

    • Never been an issue for me and ive done it about 5 times. If it fails, you can cancel it and try again. ING is a bank, customers benefit them by leaving interest in and can see why its getting a bit old with the requirements. Topcashback AU is the best out of cashback sites.

      • This is my 8th one, not had one declined yet

    • Never been an issue for me mate.
