This was amazing for my last Japan trip - most (if not all) of my bookings were valid and tracked perfectly. Yes, this included Disney and USJ.

Note: There seems to be NO cap on the 28% - the additional 8% has a cap of $20.

You won't get Cashback on:

Disney Cruise
Items specified in this list
Store promotions, discounts or special deals unless otherwise stated
Any Gift Card, Voucher or store credit purchase
Any Gift Card or Voucher redemption
Other loyalty programmes unless otherwise stated
Purchases made with Vouchers or Promo codes not featured on our platform
Taxes · Booking fees · Credit card charges
Any exceptions will be at the store's discretion.

Note: The "exclusions link I linked above is very confusing - it splits the list into two categories, special activities and excluded activities. It is the excluded activities (currently the Singapore GP and bookings made with SG Culture Pass credits) that is "excluded", not the special activities.

    Looks like a great deal - will give this a try for our upcoming trip to Bangkok/Phuket.

    Since this is only capped to $20 per member, does anyone know any other good travel experience website for discounted experiences?

    • Poison Ivy on 16/01/2026 - 13:32

      There is no cap! The only cap is the Apple Pay bonus.

      • A female dog on 16/01/2026 - 13:58

        Oh, nice one! thanks heaps

    • evgpek on 16/01/2026 - 14:55

      Last time I was able to buy some tailored suits on Pelago in Thailand with this cash back :)

  • Fiximol on 16/01/2026 - 13:31

    Check your Amex for $15 back from $100 offer for Pelago for discount stacking.

    • evgpek on 16/01/2026 - 14:56

      30 off 300 for me

  • djrossco on 16/01/2026 - 13:39

    I highly recommend Pelago. Used them recently to purchase a bunch of tickets for stuff in Singapore and Hong Kong. Just check the exclusions list for ShopBack like Disney.

    • knobbs on 16/01/2026 - 14:08

      Ohhh booooo was just looking to buy Disney through them haha. Good thing you gave a headsup

      • knobbs on 16/01/2026 - 14:15

        @gotyourback can you please clarify this exclusion/special activity list?

        SB site says you will not get cashback on things in this list https://pages.pelago.co/shopback-exclusion-special-activitie…, but then in the list it says special activities are applicable for SB cashback???

        Will Tokyo DisneySea/Land tickets be eligible for the 28% cashback or not?

        Note: The "exclusions link I linked above is very confusing - it splits the list into two categories, special activities and excluded activities. It is the excluded activities (currently the Singapore GP and bookings made with SG Culture Pass credits) that is "excluded", not the special activities.

          As I said in my post, this list is confusing but can confirm that in the past, it was confirmed the only exclusions are on the "exclusions" list.

          I was paid out for my Disney and so have many others (click on Pelago on this site to see past shopback deals)

          • knobbs on 16/01/2026 - 14:47

            @Poison Ivy: Yeah I saw your note, was trying to get GYB to confirm. Couldn't see anywhere in OP you stated you got cashback before for booking Disney as well, or where it was confirmed previously.

            • Poison Ivy on 16/01/2026 - 14:54

              @knobbs: All good. Probably for the best to get him to confirm so we have a trail if there are any issues, which seems to be a regular occurrence with SB lol

              I mentioned Disney in my first line.

        • sakuratest on 16/01/2026 - 14:48

          Yes, you will get cashback on disney tickets as I've been there back in October. I had the same special list.

          The price of ticket is more expensive comparing to official site iirc but overall with cashback, you will save quite a lot.

          • knobbs on 16/01/2026 - 14:54

            @sakuratest: Just saw I can't book for October yet anyway. Getting excited for nothing

    Oof annoying - literally booked 3 activities through them last weekend at 23% off.. may need to determine if its worth rebooking them all.

    Few things to note:

    • I used my AMEX card for the $15 back and was surprised to not get charged an international transaction fee (Qantas Ultimate).. I'm sure Pelago always used to process payments outside of Aus, so not sure if something has changed?

    • Shopback did have an 'Earn more' promotion for an additional $30 off $250 spend, which I had previously joined up to and my partner joined up at the time of booking; only for Shopback to then say all rewards had been redeemed after the fact. Seems a bit cheeky to let it still be joined and then pull that..

    • Also the Apple Pay component never tracked for me when I booked, so be prepared to need to chase them on that..

    • tripdubz on 16/01/2026 - 14:37

      Got charged a foreign transaction fee on my HSBC star alliance cc last month.

      • hubs1982 on 16/01/2026 - 15:12

        Same here, got stung 3% with me Westpac Altitude MasterCard 😢

        • OnlyHans on 21/01/2026 - 02:24

          Bought Skybus tickets twice via Pelago - first time StG credit got charged the foreign transaction fee, while second time Westpac debit didn't. Bizarre.

    • eecan on 16/01/2026 - 14:52

      Been a while but when I had my AMEX it charged a foreign fee only when when you were charged in a foreign currency. At the time it was AUD = no fee regardless of the location of the payment processor unlike Mastercard/VISA.

      • VladImpaler on 16/01/2026 - 16:28

        Pelago wouldn't accept my AMEX this time so had to use NAB who added a 3% foreign transaction fee.

    • txb on 16/01/2026 - 15:28

      AFAIK amex only charge a foreign fee on non AUD denominated transactions, irrespective of the merchant is overseas based

    • nategasm on 16/01/2026 - 21:48

      Reminder that we have a wiki page where you can check if "Australian" sites charge international fees. I also added a note regarding Amex not charging fees for AUD which was already in the Card wiki.

    Didn't know about Pelago until now, good promo!

  • celerybirthdaycake on 16/01/2026 - 14:30

    Just in time for Skybus. Thanks!

  • SBOB on 16/01/2026 - 14:34

    This was amazing for my last Japan trip - most (if not all) of my bookings were valid and tracked perfectly. Yes, this included Disney and USJ.

    Day passes for Japan for Disney and usj?
    Do they just supply a QR code or something for scanning at the gate?
    Trip in a few months so tickets not available yet for my trip, but any tips much appreciated:)

    • pumpkins on 16/01/2026 - 16:45

      I used the previous 28% off Pelago offer earlier in the month for about $1400 worth of tickets etc in Singapore - I now have almost $400 cash back pending. For universal studios I could actually load the codes Pelago gave me in their confirmation booking (under the QR code) directly into the Universal Studios app and they came straight up as valid tickets with names and everything, including any bonus vouchers (like % off of $ off food/drinks). For other places I just showed the QR code that Pelago provided. Worked seamlessly for USS, botanic gardens, Jurrasic park at Gardens by the Bay, Harry Potter, water park etc.

  • Rosie77123 on 16/01/2026 - 14:36

    Can someone confirm if I buy 5 x Disneyworld tickets for $5,000 do i get approx $1,400 back. Is there a cap on what I can get back?

    • kitehoo on 16/01/2026 - 21:55

      I need to know this too

  • fivespice on 16/01/2026 - 14:52

    I thought USJ and Disney are excluded per the list?

    • Rosie77123 on 16/01/2026 - 15:00

      is that just Hong Kong and Toyko Disney?

  • DraggyX on 16/01/2026 - 16:14

    That's weird, the activity I was looking at was $180, now it's $220, is it just me or some got jacked?

  • rxjb on 16/01/2026 - 16:38

    Headed to Bali. Worth buying through here or buy local?

    • RTX9090Ti on 16/01/2026 - 20:20

      Worth buying tru bonnie blue bangbus.

  • iluvbargainz on 16/01/2026 - 17:40

    I have used Pelago several times and highly rate. Used them to buy theme park tickets on the Gold Coast with great cashback.

  • ooii on 16/01/2026 - 18:36

    I booked Disneyland Hong Kong and it tracked.

    • kitehoo on 16/01/2026 - 22:37

      How long after booking did it take for the cashback track to show in shopback please mate?

  • Skyisblue on 16/01/2026 - 19:15

    You reckon Disneyland Anaheim in Los Angeles would be eligible for cashback?

    • kitehoo on 16/01/2026 - 21:55

      I want to know if Orlando tracks

  • Aznbargainboy on 16/01/2026 - 19:36

    Has anyone ever tried the Pelagos Singapore Attraction pass bundle? I can’t find exceptions and looks like it’s decent value?

    • simmogunner on 16/01/2026 - 21:05

      Bout a little ago with a view of using for Universal Studios, Gardens by the bay and teh Singapore Flyer. With cashback turns into a pretty big saving.

        Thanks ma. Bit the bullet last night and just did it. Tracked straight away. Pretty stoked with the savings.

  • EtherealArchelon on 16/01/2026 - 20:56

    Everything I want to book (Gardens by the Bay, SIngapore Zoo) won't let me book for April. :(

    • simmogunner on 16/01/2026 - 21:05

      Have a look at the Pelago Singapore pass. Cashback eligible and should allow April bookings.

      • EtherealArchelon on 16/01/2026 - 21:25

        "This Pelago Pass is valid for usage between 1 April 2025 to 31 March 2026, 23:59 hrs. Pass is valid for 30 days from activation or 31 March 2026, 23:59 hrs, whichever is earlier. All redemptions must be completed by 31 March 2026, 23:59 hrs."

        Nope.. Just out of range unfortunately. I'll just have to hope for another deal.

  • kitehoo on 16/01/2026 - 21:54

    Can anyone confirm if this works on walt disneyworld in Orlando tickets ?

    Its confusing

  • isss on 17/01/2026 - 09:51

    anyone still waiting for the apple pay bonus cashback tracked ?

    • roadeh on 17/01/2026 - 10:09

      Yep.. ended up cancelling and re-booking as per my comment; https://www.ozbargain.com.au/comment/17279637/redir

      Neither time the Apple Pay bonus has been tracked. I've taken a screenshot of the 8% rate and will be chasing Shopback up after the 7 days elapses..

  • isss on 17/01/2026 - 13:26

    mine is tracked for similar apple pay promotion on 19 December using my westpac credit card. but this one doesn’t specify which card i need to use , so i use my ANZ credit card. maybe i wrongly see the requirements, anyone?
