Update: it seems the $89.99 subscription is not tracking at 101%. Maybe it’ll get uplifted later or you’ll have to file a claim. See these comments. See also this comment for more description.

The Offer
- Topcashback is offering 101% cashback on Adobe Creative Cloud Monthly Subscription Purchase ($89.99 cost).
Our Verdict
There’s also an Amex Offer for 25% back on Adobe; I believe these would stack and end up a ~$23 moneymaker. Just note sales tax might eat into those profits. Not sure if it’s worth doing or not, but it’s a good deal for someone who wants to try out an Adobe subscription.
(Does anyone know if this might stack with the AmEx Business Platinum benefit to get $150 per year in Adobe credits? That’s for annual plans, but maybe the $150 in credits gets triggered, in practice, with the monthly plan too?)
Hat tip to reader Matt
Anyone know how to cancel the plan ?

How to find the correct Individual Monthly Plan – $89.99/mon:
1 Click the TCB offer link for it to track and to get to the Adobe site
2 Manually type in Adobe.com on that new tab
3 On the right side under ‘Creative Cloud’ click Creative Cloud All Apps free trial
4 Select the ‘Monthly $89.99/mo’ option on the right side of the menu
I recommend downloading TCB’s extension so you can live track whether the offer is still activated before submitting an order. Offers typically will only stay activated for a certain amount of time, in my experience ~15 minutes and sometimes less. Good to have whatever portal’s extension turned on during the time you’re using one of their offers for peace of mind.

Thanks I Just placed my order but it is saying they will give me 7 day trial first? then they charge 7 days later? is this how it works and will i still get tcb credit?
TCB closed my account a few hours after submitting, I signed up to TCB for the first time for this offer.
I emailed support and they asked for proof of purchase/payment so I’m assuming they didn’t do their due diligence and note that Cloud Services pretty much forces a 7-day trial on you when you first sign up for their subscription. There is an option to manually cancel the trial and start your paid subscription after you sign up but I didn’t want to do that and have their system erroneously mark me as fraudulent for ‘cancelling’ so I decided to let it ride out the trial.
TCB didn’t see that I paid yet and thought I was trying to pull a quick one…
Up to you if you want to cancel the trial so payment is made to Adobe and reported to TCB. That’s what I probably should have done in hind sight.
Hopefully this is an isolated incident and TCB isn’t this incompetent.
89.99 for monthly all apps?! thats crazy. i pay 19.99 for that. and i still think thats overpriced because i used to pay 15.99 before resubscribing this year. thats CRAZY. wait til black friday or feign canceling to get a better deal. 89.99 jesus christ…
They just try to cash in on their image processing AI, in a couple of years, everyone’s gonna have similar or better options. And since I personally angry with what they did to Macromedia, FrameMaker and Aldus, I just keep jacksparrowing the few apps I occasionally use.
Does it have any AI features? I’ve been making stuff with AI for the last several months and already have one paid service.. I don’t really want to go back to trying to learn Photoshop, etc. and been quite impressed overall with AI stuff. Just wondering if it’s worth it to sign up basically.
Photoshop definitely has at least one AI generative ‘fill’ option, I can say that. PS is the only thing I’ve installed so far and in the opening tutorial it showed me how to use it’s AI generation tool. Came with 1000 credits for me.
It starts you off with a 7-day trial before it charges you if you want to check out the full suite. I didn’t sign up for this to actually use the software though.
I have been able to use my edu email to get student discount pricing on the adobe suite yearly rate which has also triggered the amex biz credit. If only they would allow for multiple payment forms like Dell, could be getting it for free
isn’t the yearly rate $239.88 so they also get $150 credit back and 25% too?
I just did the business subscription at 89.99 and it tracked as one of the 85.8% deals not 101%. Submitted a ticket for missing cash back.
Did you do the cloud monthly, otherwise it 85.8%
I was about to ask how anal TCB is with their instructions/criteria since this is my first time using the site. Ended up choosing the $89.99/mon individual plan. TCB is showing $90.88 pending.
From what I saw only the individual plan had a ‘true’ Monthly plan for $89.99/mon. Business had ‘Annual, pay monthly’ and ‘Annual, prepaid’.
TCB def could’ve clarified better.
Confirming this.
As others have indicated, you apparently do not want to do the $89.99 business plan.
Instead, you want to look at personal/individual plans, which will show a $59.99/mo Creative Cloud Monthly Subscription. If you click into the plan options, you will see that the $59.99/mo is for paying annually, and there is an $89.99 monthly option.
I used that monthly option, and TCB showed $90.88 ~10 minutes later.
After creating an account and using this offer yesterday my account seems to be locked for some reason. Waiting on a reply from support. This happen to anyone else?
Same here. I did creative cloud all apps (under business) at $89.99. TCB tracked $77.25 cashback. I submitted a ticket.
Couldn’t find any individual plans for the creative cloud.

I looked into the $150 Adobe benefit on Amex Biz Plat before and found it to be useless because you end up having to pay more for the Team plan, not Individual 😒
Terms: “Valid only on purchases of annual prepaid business subscriptions of Adobe Creative Cloud All Apps or Single Apps for teams or Adobe Acrobat Pro for teams, and on additional licenses added to an eligible annual prepaid subscription during an existing subscription term. Adobe Creative Cloud InCopy App is not eligible. Individual and Student & Teacher plans are not eligible.”
That’s really stupid. They should allow individual plans.
I buy all app year subs through Dell when Amex has the 20% offer (don’t have Plat) and built up a couple years.
Two years ago the individual plan triggered the credit for me. Haven’t tried recently.
I tried it last year, it doesn’t work on personal. Only biz subs
Didn’t even think of that.
I started looking around after the Adobe breach caused me a huge headache. Besides the Amex offer, the tax rate was several percentages lower for me. Plus was able to put off the raise in prices a little.
