How Kick Cashback Works

What is cashback? Cashback is a reward where you receive a percentage of your purchase price back in cash after shopping at participating stores. With Kick Cashback, you earn cashback by clicking through to a partner store from your free Kick Cashback portal at kickpay.co, then completing your purchase as normal.

How does Kick Cashback work? Kick Cashback partners with 650+ Australian retailers. When you shop through the Kick Cashback portal, the retailer pays Kick Cashback a commission, and Kick Cashback passes most of that commission back to you as cashback. The cashback is tracked as Earned at the time of purchase and moves to Available to claim quickly — within minutes, not the months you'd wait elsewhere.

Is Kick Cashback free to use? Yes. Kick Cashback is 100% free for shoppers. There are no membership fees, subscription costs, or hidden charges. Kick Cashback is funded by the commissions paid by partner retailers.

Cashback Categories

Kick Cashback offers cashback across all major shopping categories: fashion, electronics, travel, food and drink, home and garden, health and beauty, sports and fitness, automotive, entertainment, telecommunications, jewellery and watches, pets, and more. Rates vary by retailer.

When You Get Paid

Cashback is tracked as Earned at the time of purchase and moves to Available to claim quickly — within minutes for most categories. Travel, insurance, and subscription purchases stay in the Pending stage longer (30-120 days) due to retailer return and refund windows. Payouts to your bank account use a short holding period and tiered limits based on account age.

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.
