How SaveCombo Works
SaveCombo is a community-driven platform where Australians share "combo deals" — multiple savings layers stacked on a single purchase to achieve the true lowest price.
What Are Combo Deals?
A combo deal layers multiple independent discounts on the same purchase. Instead of using just one coupon or one cashback portal, you stack them all together. Here's an example on a $2,199 phone:
4 layers stacked = A$274 saved (~12% off)
Layer Types Explained
Each combo deal is made up of "layers" — different types of savings that stack together. Here are the 8 layer types:
The starting sale price from a retailer. This is the advertised price before any stacking.
Portals like ShopBack, CashRewards, and TopCashback give you a percentage back on your purchase.
Visit the cashback portal first, click through to the retailer, and complete your purchase. Cashback is tracked automatically and paid out within 30–90 days.
Credit card offers, BNPL discounts, and banking app deals (CommBank, ANZ, Westpac, NAB, AmEx).
Open your banking app, find and activate the offer before purchasing. The credit or cashback will appear on your statement within 5–10 business days.
Bonus points from Everyday Rewards, Flybuys, Qantas Points, and store loyalty programs.
Link your loyalty card or activate bonus point offers in the loyalty app before purchasing. Points are credited after the transaction settles.
Promo codes, member discounts, and site-wide coupon codes that stack with other offers.
Enter the code at checkout in the promo/coupon field. The discount is applied instantly to your order total.
Buy discounted gift cards (e.g., 10% off at Coles) then use them at face value at the retailer.
Buy discounted gift cards first from the specified source, then use them as payment at the retailer. This locks in your savings upfront.
Retailers like Officeworks beat competitor prices by 5%. Show a lower price and save even more.
Show the competitor's lower price (screenshot or live webpage) at the counter or via live chat. The retailer will match and beat the price.
Education pricing via UNiDAYS, StudentBeans, or direct .edu.au email verification.
Verify your student status via UNiDAYS, StudentBeans, or a valid .edu.au email address. Then access the education store or apply the discount.

Stack Loyalty Programs
Everyday Rewards, Flybuys, and Qantas Points often have bonus multiplier offers that stack with cashback.
Check Gift Card Promos
Buying discounted gift cards (e.g., 20x Flybuys on Apple GCs at Coles) is one of the most powerful layers.
