Update 7/5/21: New code INDEPENDENCE10 is working until the end of the day.
Update 7/4/21: Same error message last night, but working again. Today is the last day of the deal as well.
Update 7/3/21: Yesterday people were getting a ‘We’re sorry. This code has been used too many times.’ error, today it is working again. Possible it has a limited amount of uses per day.
Update 7/2/21: Looks like you can actually do more than $750 (obviously $750 per order limit).
The Offer

The Fine Print

- Limit $750 total value per person.
Our Verdict
Fee is $5.95 and maximum value is $250 per card I think. Discount comes off the value of card, not the fee. So basically $750 in gift cards (3 x $250) for $692.85. Great deal, I suspect this will end very quickly so get in now. Go through a portal for another 1%, not sure if that will track with the promo code.
Hat tip to GC Galore
nvm
Its back, was probably being updated with the 2nd promo code
It didn’t, just reposted.
Any who bought these with Amex and it counted towards minimum spend?
Crooked fuckers just clawed back my MyPoints from 3 months ago
They denied my Cashback on TopCashback. They probably didn’t want to pay out.
All of my previously tracked TopCashBack transactions now showing declined as well
I assume this is widespread. I think I’ve seen their reps post on here before.
William Charles , have you heard anything from them?
They became available about a week ago, and I have already cashed them out. My total was under $2000, if that matters.
All of mine went payable without issue. I bought 14 cards ($3500) which was the max I could do. I ran 8 of them through topcashback and 6 of them through Rakuten. All 14 ended up tracking ok for me. Topcashback payable and Rakuten showing it will be paid in next round of payout in November.
How are people liquidating these?
Organic spend for me
I bought ten thousand dollar personalized cabinets.
Whatever will you do with ten of them?
They are replacing my current kitchen cabinets so food pantry, cupboard, plates, and dog food storage?
I used the wrong word. Should have been customized not personalized.
Woof woof.

Just realized my final order was charged without the code being properly applied. Anyone else have this happen? I know I applied the coupon, I double checked it before purchasing. Going to call tomorrow, I really hope this won’t turn into an ordeal.
Does anyone have a screenshot of the 7/5 window? They’re denying me stating that it was only 7/2-7/4. I said it was working on 7/5 and that it applied at checkout and at the point of payment but the email receipt shows I was charged in full. 🤦♂️
Waiting on a callback from a supervisor. I rarely ever do this but I will be filing a charge back if they refuse to budge.
Did Swagbucks track automatically for anyone? It didn’t track for me on any order, so had to open tickets with proof of purchase.
Tracked for me. Took 24hr.
Used chrome incognito, swag button extension, left those tabs open for like couple hours after placing order. Also exported cookies incase I need to fight for getting CB. And took screenshots at each stage.
Been there like you. Hate it. Good luck.
Thanks. Does swag button help? I usually close the tabs right after. Is it better to leave the tabs open?
I do have all the order completion emails, but I’d have been happier if it tracked automatically.
I honestly don’t know the technicals. I use these extensions only when needed. If the button shows ‘cash back activated’ or similar, that gives me some peace of mind that cookies might be set properly to track it.
Again, without knowing technical details, i leave the tabs open just incase some requests to the Cashback network take a longer time or if a cookie has to expire to let the swagbucks/ebates/something to trigger the session as completed.
This is all an attempt to make sure Cashback is tracked well. So far this process has worked well for me. But I am sure i am overdoing it.
Hope yours get resolved through customer care easily.

May be a useless dp, but I just checked my cart as a guest and I still had the promo code attach to a failed transaction going through. Was able to purchase the 750 that was already in the cart at the 10% discount now. 🙂
Thank you for the dp! As long as you have the promo code saved, you can add additional gc to your cart; if you only had $500 in your basket, you can add another $250 vgc. This was a great promo, even though I wasn’t able to maximize it nearly as much as some posters here. My account had a 48hr reset period, and I was traveling, so I didn’t have access to as much stuff to try to get around the limits vs if I was at home.
Same, was abroad and my hotel blocked VPN to make it seem like I was in the US even! Crazy. Anyway, was able to buy $750 again with the trick above once I got back since promo code was already saved to my cart. So at least I got $1500 out of it. Just $2500K away from the CSP spend 😉
TCB tracked for orders on 7/2 that were all cancelled. Used Firefox.
TCB still not tracked for order on 7/5 that actually delivered. Used Edge.
I doubt TCB will move the failed trips to payable. I have three as well.
I agree, but the irony…
I just realized that the 7/5 purchase did not track likely because it would then exceed the $2k per month limit.
When the 7/2 purchases are declined, I hope the 7/5 purchase will then track automatically.
