If you see $21 cashback in target business, you should get the reward in 30 days. Has anyone actually got $21 deposited to their google pay?

For those who are having issues... my guess is that Gpay is experiencing heavy load that's delaying some of these.

I did this yesterday and got the $21 Target pending 30-day icon nearly instantly. I first noticed that the promo disappeared on the landing page and when I clicked the explore pane on the left I saw the little target icon/$21/timer indicating the 30-day wait period.

Last night I did the exact same steps with my wife's phone for hers and no amount of closing the app and reopening would cause that promo to process the same way it had on mine. I'm hopeful that at some point today her's will show up too.

Just a guess as I'm reading lots of people who seem to have done the steps right since yesterday who are in the same boat.

Possibly related and supportive of this "delay" hypothesis: around the same time I sent her $10 from my account (I had already received referrals so I had funds in my Gpay account) that I was then going to send back to myself completing her portion of the requirements for the $21 referral bonus. It shows that she received my payment and even shows that she has a $10 balance in her account. The problem is that whenever I go to send that $10 back to my account it wants me to pick a funding source (credit cards or bank account) but simply will NOT allow me to use an existing balance no matter what I try. It's almost as if not every part of the Gpay ecosystem has fully processed my $10 payment even though it looks like it has.

I did two 50$ gift card purchase from target using the card and still didnt get the reward. I used paypal to checkout. did anyone else faced similar issue and did you eventually receive the reward ?
Quote from SharpIdea6715 :
i did the same..
clicked use online and it opened my default browser(firefox)
selected 50$ gift card
paid using paypal
its been 2hrs and I got my gift card but no 21$ cashback from google.

is it issue with paypal or firefox(not focus)?
can anyone confirm if it works with paypal or firefox(of course mobile browser)

Do NOT use Paypal or anything other than the "Credit Card" option during checkout folks. Using any other form of checkout even funding it via the same credit card is not the same. Make sure you use the same credit card that you enrolled on your Gpay account too.

One of my cards is eligible for the promotion. Does this mean that I just go to Target website to pay using that card? Will Google Pay detect the purchase? I was expecting some sort of Google Pay option in the site

You cannot use PayPal directly to pay Target. Otherwise you are paying with PayPal, not your credit card, even if you have it linked to your credit card. However, you can use the PayPal key instead but just make sure you enroll that PayPal key with GPay as well.

I, too, used a Citi Mastercard but I don't think that's the issue since I used it with success on my account and then it didn't on my wife's account. Another possibility I considered is that Gpay doesn't allow the same card on different accounts. They may only allow one promotion per credit as a way to prevent people from creating several accounts to stack up on promotions. The problem is that people like us who legitimately have two Google accounts and use one credit card for the household... too bad.


Anyone else who has followed the steps exactly and not have it work use the same credit card on more than one account?

How can you do 3 referral links if the link the friend gives you just opens the app and you gotta be new and not accept other referrals? After 1 aren't you done?
