- Updated: 19 October 2026 (facts checked 19 Oct 2026 against TopCashback Australia's own pages)
- Independent explainer. SavySaver is not operated or endorsed by TopCashback.

Disclosure: this page has no TopCashback referral or affiliate link, so SavySaver earns nothing from it today. SavySaver also publishes a ShopBack referral code. See https://savysaver.com.au/disclosures/.

**Short answer:** TopCashback is a free Cashback site. Click through while logged in and buy as normal. Cashback should show within 7 days and becomes Payable after the store's returns period, once the store has paid TopCashback. There's no minimum payout.

## Do this today

1. Log in before you click through.
2. Make TopCashback your last click before checkout.
3. Only use voucher codes published by TopCashback.

## Purchase to Payable

1. Tracked: on your Earnings page within 7 days
2. Confirmed by the store after its returns period
3. Payable once the store has paid TopCashback. Stores are usually invoiced after month-end, then it can take one or two months for the money to arrive

## Withdrawals

- No minimum (bank transfer or PayPal from $0.01 Payable). Some methods can set their own minimum
- Bank transfer, PayPal, or Reward Wallet gift cards
- One payout type per 24 hours
- 72-hour wait after you change payment details

## Common decline reasons (per TopCashback)

- Cancelling, amending or returning all or part of the order
- Voucher codes not shown on TopCashback
- Quotes, saved or renewed quotes, or buying by phone
- Not meeting the store's terms (including new-customer-only offers)
- TopCashback not being the last site visited before purchase

## Refer & Earn (checked 19 Oct 2026)

- New member joins via a valid referral link (17 Sep 2026 to 24 Feb 2035) and earns at least A$10 at eligible brands within 180 days: A$20 sign-up bonus
- Referrer: A$20 once the qualifying transactions are available
- The bonus that applies is the one advertised at sign-up
- Paid by bank transfer or PayPal

SavySaver doesn't currently publish a TopCashback referral link.

## FAQ

**Is TopCashback Australia free?**
Yes, according to TopCashback. Its terms say membership is completely free and that you can withdraw Payable Cashback free of charge.

**Is there a minimum payout on TopCashback?**
TopCashback says there's no minimum payout. Its terms say you can withdraw by bank transfer or PayPal once you have $0.01 Payable, though some payout methods can set their own minimum.

**Why does TopCashback take so long to pay?**
TopCashback says stores are usually invoiced after the end of the calendar month in which you bought, and it can then take one or two months for the money to reach TopCashback before your Cashback becomes Payable.

**How does TopCashback Refer & Earn work?**
Under the current terms, a new member who joins through a valid referral link and earns at least A$10 at eligible brands within 180 days gets a A$20 bonus, and the referrer also gets A$20. The amount that applies is the one advertised when the friend signed up.

**Can I use a voucher code with TopCashback?**
Only codes published by TopCashback itself. TopCashback says a code from anywhere else, even one posted by a member, will likely get your Cashback declined.

**Is Top Cashback the same as Cashrewards?**
No. Cashrewards was a separate Australian Cashback site. It stopped offering Cashback on 8 September 2025 and closed.
