Finally secured some leave to go on a stress-relieving vacation but ironically, your holiday woes may have just begun. First, you have to book the cheapest airfares and find comfortable accommodation at the best rates. Don’t even get me started on travel insurance, activity passes as well as a suitcase full of climate-appropriate outfits to last the duration of the trip!
ShopBack has compiled all your travel planning needs into one handy portal and, between 11th March to 31st March 2019, make any purchase through the page and you might win $5,000 in cashback.
15th March Double Cashback bonus: Purchases made on Booking.com will give you 12% cashback instead of the usual 6%.
For the uninitiated, ShopBack is a cashback reward programme that funnels actual payouts back into your bank account whenever you make a purchase through the platform. You’re going to be buying something anyway, doing so through ShopBack just means you’ll get a percentage of cashback right back into your pocket.
Here’s how it’d look on a typical vacation:
ShopBack’s Get That Flight Out promo has all your flight, accommodation and activity bookings conveniently sorted at a glance.
It’s also properly mapped out so you can plan your perfect trip, step by step.
Of course, the first and most important decision is how you’re getting there.

In line with the mega Game of Thrones (GoT) hype, let’s use a fantasy trip to Barcelona as an example, where we’ll get to visit real-life scenic spots that were filming locations for the iconic medieval series.
ShopBack offers 1.00% cashback for international flights booked on Trip.com, meaning you’ll only need to pay $1186.02 instead of the full $1,198 airfare. Other participating partners for flight booking include Qatar Airways (1.00% cashback), Emirates (1.00% cashback), Expedia (0.50%, 2.50% for hotel + flight package) and heaps more!

If you prefer the homestay experience, bookings on Airbnb grant you a $5 cashback for existing users and $15 cashback for new first-timers. For those eyeing a luxurious hotel stay instead, Expedia offers a 6.0% cashback, allowing us to call the gorgeous Gran Hotel Monterrey home for only $98.70 per night ($105 before cashback).
Bonus: For only 24 hours on 15th March 2019, enjoy double the cashback on Booking.com. That’s 12% cashback in total!
Once you’ve touched down, ShopBack also has your transportation modes sorted. Choose from vehicle rental platforms such as Rentalcars.com (6.0% cashback) and Auto Europe (up to 3.50% cashback), BusOnlineTicket (up to 3.00% cashback) for train and bus tickets, or Cruise Direct (2.0%) if you’re planning on setting sail.

It’s crucial to be comfortably dressed throughout your trip, but you also want to look bomb for those OOTD shots for the ‘Gram. Especially if you’re travelling somewhere with a much colder climate than sunny Singapore, investing in some winter wear before you jet off is a must.
