in Credit cards
I heard that "credit card cashback" was becoming a growing trend a while back but have never seen any other companies other than Airtime Rewards and First Direct Visa Offers. Where you register a certain debit/credit card and receive cashback via other retailers.
I can't remember how I came across the First Direct offer. It certainly wasn't in my bank control panel. But they have some good offers such as 5% cashback on LNER.
My other bank, Halifax, does have some cashback offers too, which are not tied to specific card numbers. Are they any more of these "credit card cashback" schemes, perhaps tied to Mastercard or another scheme?

HSBC also has Visa Offers like First Direct ( as well as a Rewards card https://www.hsbc.co.uk/credit-cards/products/rewards/)
Lloyds and Bank of Scotland do the same as Halifax, while Santander has a scheme which is similar.0 -

On Mastercard there is the Virgin Credit Card 'Moneyback':

However, this scheme is sadly closing at the end of February 2020!
Or Natwest Rewards Credit Card:

However this card does have a fee unless you have a Natwest Rewards current account. Note that along with 1% on supermarket shopping and various percentages at their 'partners', the general shopping rate is being cut from 0.5% to 0.25% cashback in February 2020.0 -
So, prior to the closing of the Virgin scheme, could you get double cashback by going via say TopCashback and then using the linked credit card?0

It has been known to work, but sometimes it doesn't 'double track'.
A bit of a lucky dip really.0
