Cashback on Tax-Free Childcare payments

Nilly141

Hi there,

Wondering if anyone has any latest tips/tricks to gain cashback on payments made in to the Tax-Free Childcare Scheme on Gov.uk, please?

Given that AMEX isn't accepted on these payments, I've been looking for other ways to gain cashback or at least some kind of equivalent reward (e.g. air miles) back, for such high payments.

I noted that up until very recently, Curve was the best way to do this, in combination with a credit card (although AMEX wasn't supported) using Curve Fronted. However, I understand that Curve Fronted is no longer available for new customers, as Curve have started issuing their cards as credit cards, not debit cards.

I also believe Zilch (which offered 2% cashback on TFC payments) is no longer working either.

I don't think the Chase UK debit card's 1% cashback would work with this either, as government payments/services are excluded.

So I was wondering if anyone else has made use of any other methods that could get cashback/equivalent (e.g. air miles) back when making these payments, please?
