How Kick fits into the Australian cashback industry

Cashback in Australia has been around for over a decade, with several major platforms operating in the market. Kick partners with the same licensed partner networks that publishers like Cashrewards, ShopBack and TopCashback use. The retailer pays a commission to the network, the network pays Kick, and Kick passes most of that commission back to you as cashback. There's no novel financial product here — it's standard performance-marketing.

What regulations apply to Kick

  • Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles — how Kick collects and stores personal data.
  • Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010) — consumer rights and fair trading.
  • Spam Act 2003 — email and SMS communications.
  • Australian Payments Network direct debit framework — administered by the Australian Payments Network — applies to all bank-account payouts.
  • Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (Cth) — large or unusual payouts trigger identity verification.

Security practices

All connections use TLS 1.2+ encryption. Stored data is encrypted at rest with AES-256. Payment infrastructure is PCI DSS v4.0 compliant. Multi-factor authentication is required for high-value claims. Kick never stores your bank password or your retailer logins, and the retailer never sees your Kick Cashback account.

Our Experience

We are a first-party cashback platform — we work directly with retailers rather than reselling another company's network. Our team negotiates cashback rates, manages partner relationships, and processes payments in-house. According to industry data published by IAB Australia, partner and cashback marketing represented over $1 billion in tracked Australian retail sales in 2024 (source: IAB Australia Online Advertising Expenditure Report). Kick Cashback is part of this growing sector and is committed to passing the majority of retailer commissions back to shoppers as cashback.

Our editorial team draws on direct experience working with major Australian retailers and global partner networks. We publish detailed cashback information, retailer terms, and shopping guides based on first-hand knowledge of how cashback tracking, attribution, and payments work. Where industry standards or regulatory guidance applies — such as the Australian Consumer Law administered by the ACCC, or the Privacy Act 1988 administered by the OAIC — we cite the relevant source so readers can verify our claims.
