It can take from 1 hour – 7 days for your purchase to track from the retailer. Though almost all transactions track correctly there are times when cashback can fail to be tracked correctly.
If you have been waiting longer than 7 days please submit a ‘missing cashback ticket’. Once you have given us the required details we will then contact the retailers on your behalf and try our best to get your missing cashback allocated to you
Your cashback queries can take anywhere between 1 week to 2 months to resolve. However, as soon as you submit your missing cashback ticket claim our members support team will action this with the retailer and try to get your claim resolved as swiftly as possible.
Unfortunately, it is the retailer that has the final say as to decide on whether the missing cashback claim is a valid one. Our members support team will work extremely hard to get your missing cashback claim approved by the retailer as we only get paid if you do.
There are a number of reasons this can happen and methods you can use to reduce this such as.
- Price Comparison Sites, If you used a price comparison site other than HogWired to find the product and go to the retailer site from that site, then come back to us using our links there is a chance that the commission will still be given to the price comparison site instead. In which case we will not be able to pay you cashback. Therefore you should try not to search for a product or service using a price comparison site other than HogWired’s own price comparison prior to completing your purchase as you will run the risk of losing your cashback.
- Voucher Codes, you should only click on voucher codes and offers which are listed on HogWired. If you use another voucher code site your at risk of your cashback being given to that website.
- Online Purchase, as we are purely based online if you see something on our website and buy it at the retailer in store or by telephone then we will not be able to accrue your cashback.
- Browser Cookies and History and Pop-up Blockers, although the majority of transactions will still go through it is good if you could try and clear your browser cookies and history and make sure cookies are enabled prior to visiting our website or going to the retailer via our website. Please do NOT clear your browser cookies after you have arrived at the retailer website via our website as this can reduce your chances of the cashback being tracked.
- Visit only via HogWired links, if you type in the retailer directly in the browser www. search window and do not use our links you will not be credited cashback.
- Returns or Cancelled Orders, if you cancel or return your order your cashback will be declined or removed.
- Don’t forget to login, Although you think this might not happen it is amazing how many of our users forget to login before visiting the retailer website via HogWired.
Once you have enough ‘Payable’ cashback a Redeem Cashback button will appear on the last page of the My Cashback pages. Click this button to request a cashout.
- Our payments are made free or charge to you either via bank transfer (*Presently available to selected countries) or paypal, your choice.
- All cashback withdrawal requests and payments are generally processed once a week, so depending on the type of method you have chosen, it will take between 1-7 working days for your payment to reach your account.
You can change your payment method at anytime by visiting my account section and payment options.
Many retailers pay cashback only on the amount excluding VAT and Delivery and not the gross total amount of the purchase. Please see the terms and conditions on the store page for the retailer on our website. If you still believe that the right amount of cashback has not been given, please send us a support ticket with as much detail as possible to help with the claim.
