How can I spend my cashback?

Use it for your everyday essentials at the supermarket, treat yourself to a takeaway, buy the books you need for your studies or maybe even book a holiday. It’s pretty much like having cash in your bank account.

Book a viewing

The first step to getting cashback is choosing your room. Explore your options with an in-person, virtual or online 360° viewing.

Your questions, answered

Cashback

Will I receive a physical card?

You won’t get a physical card, only a virtual one (#ThinkGreen!). You’ll get an email with your username asking you to set up your password. You can then log in to see your card details and these details can be copied for online purchases or added to your Google Pay or Apple Pay digital wallets.

Where can I use my card?

You can use your virtual cashback card anywhere that accepts Visa Prepaid. You can use Google and Apple pay on all instore purchases where the card is accepted once you’ve added it to your digital wallet.

Does my cashback card expire?

Yes! Your cashback card does expire – you need to spend the money on your cashback card before the expiry date shown on the card. You won’t get a replacement card, so it’s use it or lose it.

If you already have a cashback card, you can check your remaining balance by logging into your card account or going onto the ‘Pluxee UK Card’ app.

Is there anything I can’t spend my cashback on?

Yes, there are some things you can’t use your cashback for – you can’t withdraw cash from an ATM, get cashback from merchants, obtain foreign currency or travellers' cheques, or settle outstanding balances on credit cards, bank overdrafts or credit agreements. Your cashback also can’t be used to pay for recurring transactions, adult entertainment or online gambling and betting.
