Update 11/3/24: Deal is back, this time 120% instead of 130%.
Update 10/22/24: Back again
Update 2/26/24: Deal is back again at 130% (ht Carlos)
The Offer
- Topcashback is offering 130% cashback on new customers to PureVPN.
Our Verdict
You can buy a 27-month plan for $53.95 and make around $11 profit. There’s always the risk of something going wrong with the portal tracking, but I am seeing a 31-day guarantee from the VPN so if it doesn’t track you should be able to cancel.
Just make sure to use no a card with no foreign transaction fee as the charge comes from HongKong.
Deal History:
- Update 1/24/24: Deal is back at 130%
- Update 11/1/23: Back at 120%
- Update 7/28/23: Up to 130% now
- Update 1/25/23: Reduced to 120%
- Update 12/24/22: Offer is back again at 140% (ht ShawntheShawn). Cost is $23.88 so it should be like a $9-$10 moneymaker. (I’m not sure if all of the add-ons will get cashback; that would spruce up the moneymaker considerably if it does.)
- Update 11/28/22: Back up to 140%. Hat tip to Dominique
- Update 11/26/22: Down to 120% now
- Update 11/25/22: It’s up to 140% now (ht Davis), though the cost is half-price so the profit now is actually a little lower at around $9-$10 profit.
Buyer beware of this one. I had problems with it previously and was able to get it canceled and refunded when it didnt track and I was getting the runaround from the company (PureVPN)
Signed up for the 24(+3) month plan, and it tracked for me after about 1 hour
This gave me confidence to try. $156.87 pending on the $112.05 purchase also within just under an hour. Was too nervous to try any add-ons since the comments below mention there used to be a “VPN-only” restriction…even though I don’t see that in the terms now.
can you do this offer though TCB if you have done it in the past?
Signed up for the 2 year plan. Crossing fingers it will track.
I signed up on Oct 24, and the purchase tracked on TCB. However, a couple of weeks later, the retailer declined it! If you are going to try this deal, just be sure to cancel within the 30-day window if the retailer declines it. Seems like they are running a scam.
Used the offer and it tracked within an hour.
Turned off Ad-blocker for both the pages, to be sure.
Back today at 140%!
Is 5 yr plan eligible?
i got that
DO NOT DO THIS OFFER! This is a complete scam, and I’m saddened that TopCashBack is partnering with this terrible retailer. That makes me lose trust in TCB which I’ve thoroughly enjoyed in the past. This is a clear cop out where I have time stamp proof provided between the last click and the time of purchase.
Again, you will be scammed. I’ve warned you.
Here’s the reason they provided “Having chased the status of your claim with the merchant network it unfortunately appears your claim has returned declined. The reason given to us for the decline is “Not last referred click.”
The most common reasons behind this declined resolution is that TopCashback was not the last referred click when making a transaction.
We are very sorry about this unfortunate outcome, we do appreciate that this can be very disappointing.”
Its a scam. I agree. I contacted them for a refund.. They responded to stall me and did not followup. Ill file a chargeback tomm if I am not refunded. You have 30 days tro cancel per their own cancel policy on the purevpn website.”31 day money-back guarantee
If you don’t love PureVPN, let us know within your first 31 days. We’ll send
you a full refund.
+1 topcashback tracking didn’t work. Cancelled service with purevpn and requested refund.
I did it on Oct 24 this year. It was tracked on TopCashBack after a while but the estimate Payable has been showing “N/A” ever since. Worrying that it may not pay out in the end…
same. Have you gotten it?
It tracked. The estimated payable is 14 weeks. And under the dollar amount it said “confirmed,” so my hope is getting up.
tracked for me after a couple hours for like $75. Estimated payable is 14 weeks though….
Buyers beware. Topcashback has a bad reputation of not honoring the purchase. Tried 3 times with different purchase, tracked and 2 are still pending for more than 3 months.
Hi there,
I am sorry to hear this. Please reach me at [email protected] so I can take a further look.
Best wishes,

I have been with top Cashback for yrs. Overall pretty happy. This is one deal that has definitely gone bad. My lifetime earned is very high. I find them reliable. This vendor should be removed from all their programs.
