- Topcashback is offering 11% on many categories.
Our Verdict
Pretty sweet cashback/points deal for a retailer like Walmart. There are big exceptions for things like Electronics and the like, but still a lot of useful categories like Clothing, Toys, Furniture and many more.
Can anyone confirm if a meta quest 3 counts as a toy or electronic? When I search the meta quest 3 on the rakuten site itself it shows at 10%…
There are certainly less reputable portals out there than TopCashBack, but as Blynx posted I often find offer terms posted are incorrect, and you end up getting less or denied CB. Much easier to stick to Rakuten unless there is a significant difference, enough that it is worth waiting significantly longer for a payout for.
The 5% bonus on visa GC is nice though.
No thanks to TopCashBack, they list merchants that don’t track (for example 8% on Amazon on Echo devices during Prime day). Then when you file a claim, their own site says that it’s not possible to file a claim because this merchant isn’t support. Looks like fraud to me…
of course electronics is 1% arggh
11% on many categories (not sure if they are the same ones) on TopCashBack.
Gladly take 10% with Rakuten over 11% with TopCashBack, that extra 1% isn’t worth the time and headache to file claims and tracking drama.
My experience with TCB has been ok… Was there a lot of drama for you?
More than half of my cash back would have been lost if I didn’t keep track of them and submit ticket claims, including claims on “bonus” cash back that didn’t track because the original purchase was not tracked. And then waiting months for CB to be “payable”.
TCB works OK with a handful of retailers, but I expect drama every time with them so use it for only small amounts of CB.
Hi There,
If you are frequently having trouble with your purchases not tracking, I would strongly suggest that you ensure you are following the steps outlined in our guide, as missing any of these steps can result in missing cashback. A lot of merchants will have their own terms, which is key in ensuring you get the cashback.

Agreed, Rakuten tracking with the plugin is near perfect for me.
TCB is up to the grace of god.

I’d gladly take 3% at Rakuten over 300% with TCB.
3%+2% card is still 5% which is worth the ‘hassle’, while it is doubtful whether the 300% advertised by TCB tracks for even 0.001% of the people who are gullible enough to be scammed again and again.
