eBay cashback goes via eBay Partner Network (EPN). They report transactions in a batch the day after they occur. They're seven hours behind UK time, so their day ends at 7AM our time. The transaction data is usually available late afternoon EPN time (around midnight UK time), often several hours later. Then Topcashback have to collect the data from EPN and process it to work out where to allocate each sale.
So any purchase made on Saturday is unlikely to appear in your TCB account until Monday morning.
EPN tracking isn't the most reliable, sometimes they can be running a few days in arrears.
There's nothing TCB can do to speed this up, they don't know how much you've spent until EPN provide the data.

Probably a coincidence but just logged on and several items in my watched list have increased in price on average 6%. Will be interesting if they reduce on Sunday after this offer finishes.

can somebody clarify. If I've already bid on and won an item but only pay after clicking on the link on Topcashback.com will I definitely get the cashback?

Should be ok, as long as TCB has tracked it you can always enter order no etc if they have missed it.

19 Nov 16#26
Hey we would always advise you to click through when placing your bid for cashback to track onto your account. However if you clicked through when you made the winning bid and to pay this should still track to your account as normal. If it isn't showing after 7 days we would then advise you to claim. Kind Regards, Steven

Heated, lots of good cashback deals of late. Personally id rather have an outright 10% off as cashback takes ages and is never guaranteed but next best thing...

Hey, The prices on the items are on sale for are something that is out of our control and is set by the sellers. We have increased this to 10% to help our members get the best deals on cashback. Best Wishes, Steven

Thanks guys but It looks like it won't count anyway as it states that "cashback is not avaliable (yes they misspelled 'available') on bids place (oh and yep they missed out the 'd' in 'placed' too!) with a sniping service/tool"
According to the T&Cs it's not a legitimate way to win items on ebay despite it still being authorised by the site.

isn't this cashback just 10% of sellers fees though like always with ebay cashback through tcb? I remembr being very disappointed before at like 12p cashback from £150+ spend
Theatreguy13 to derp1664
19 Nov 161#14
Nope, this changed quite a while ago. It's on purchase price, not fees.
TopCashbackRep to derp1664
19 Nov 16#37
Hey This is how eBay use to track cashback and pay cashback to our members. This has now changed and they do pay cashback on the full purchase amount. So the 10% is now for the purchase amount. I hope this helps Steven

Hey eBay transactions on average take 48 hours to track onto your account. However we do ask members to allow 7 days for their cashback to show on their account. If it doesn't track after this time we would then advise you to claim and our Claims team will look into getting this added on your account. Best Wishes, Steven

Odd. eBay tracks every time for me with tcb.
Two things you should always do when doing any cashback
Go to browser settings ( explorer, safari, Firefox etc) and clear recent history (including cookies very important)
Clear all history. Then open up a new window (or tcb app)
Search the merchant. Click through to the merchant (ebay) and it will open in a new window
I'm the new window. Complete just the cashback transaction. Ie login and pay for eBay item,
Then when you close the eBay window, the previous topcashback window will often say we have registered your visit and will track shortly
Works every time for me

Hey I am sorry to hear this we would expect these to track as normal to your account within 48 hours but it can sometimes take 7 days. I would advise you clearing your cookies and disable any adblockers before you click through. This should then help them track to your account. Best Wishes, Steven

19 Nov 16#43
lets face reality my proletariat friends, nectar points may as well be bloody brownie points and 10% cashback on god knows what, its up to ebay it seems, of course thats if it even tracks, and seems to be only running for one day anyway! how much stuff can you buy in one day? thats precisely why they do it.. so you buy buy-it-now items, which are rarely discounted on ebay, the main discounts are from auctions*

Looks like this might be about to end. Its not showing up as 10% on TCB's front page of offers any more, although it's still showing at 10% when you get to the cashback link.
I got the impression it's for all members. The 10% showed up on TCB for me, and i'm not a Plus member. Cashback hasn't actually tracked for me yet though, as i've only just bought some stuff.

Would it work for listings where I make an offer? What if they accept it after the TCB deal ends, would it still track as I put the offer in while the TCB deal is live.
