Tips to Boost your eBucks - 1 July 2021 to 30 June 2022

[Archie1]

Generally when does the eBucks reward level get updated? I slipped up in December so my rewards level dropped to 4 for January, so now I'm waiting to go back up to 5 to buy electricity, shop at Checkers, and hopefully fill up at Engen today before the fuel price increase. Does the update happen on the 1st, or is that wishful thinking?

I am sure the ebucks update will happen either late next week or early the week after.

Having said that, ebucks will calculate your rewards for the last calendar month based on your new level. So you could have theoretically still shopped at Checkers etc and you would have gotten 15% back if you now reach level 5.

So remember, when your ebucks is updated, it is for the previous month, not the new month. You should still carry on as normal. Only exception to this is perhaps the smart spend calculation since this occurs throughout the month (most times).

Can the ebucks spy please add some phones please.
Mine fell to its death yesterday

I doubt there is an eBucks "spy" anymore. He was probably also downscaled / watered down / replaced by a bot lol.

Probably why no good vouchers and products on 40% off ...

Or spend Ebucks at takealot on a new phone
I know no discount but sometimes it is cheaper than the ebucks store anyway, unless you et the 40% off but that is rare.

It’s going to be a tense affair this year wondering when to pull the trigger on a deal.

I am just saving up my eBucks for purchases on the iStore. I can't be bothered with the 40% discounts anymore because the nice stuff and/or nice vouchers are hardly ever discounted anymore.

Random question. Anyone having trouble using their virtual clicks card when filling up at Engen? Tried this morning and they say they only take physical cards now…

Did that and it didn’t work. They’re insisting on a physical card… I’ve enquired Engen on this on Twitter. Will provide feedback

I think he's referring to using his virtual clicks card to get points before actually paying.

I just filled up and gave them the number to enter manually and there were no issues

I filled up last Friday and the petrol jockey entered the number manually from the Stocard app on my phone. Same as always. Where was this?

Looking to upgrade to Premier to get into ebucks. How can I earn rewards on the purchases my wife makes? Are there any other options aside from pooling our income into a shared account and using a linked card?

Firstly if you both spend less than 10k a month then you should reconsider upgrading.

Secondly you can upgrade and get two credit cards. Give one to her. Then no need for shared account.

Are you referring to total spend or certain qualifying card transactions? Still familiarizing myself with the rules.

Thanks - would the second CC appear on her dashboard for her to manage independently?

Actually, now that I think about it. Set 1 alarm for midnight on 1 November and ride the 5min snooze to victory
