How does ShopBack work?
For your cashback to be tracked correctly, you must download the ShopBack app or website (www.shopback.com.au). You then search for any travel brand like Booking.com, Expedia, AGODA, Virgin Australia and then you’ll be redirected to the brand’s website/app, as usual, to make you’re booking. As long as your browser cookies are enabled; the sale will track, and the cashback will be allocated to your ShopBack online account.
Usually, there is a waiting period before you can withdraw the money, this is a safety precaution to make sure the sale actually happened, and no refunds were made.
