Headline rates are often "up to" figures that apply to specific categories. The full tier breakdown below shows exactly what each purchase type pays — something most comparison sites don't publish.
John Lewis cashback is worth a look, but it comes with a caveat that regular shoppers will recognise: the retailer's own "never knowingly undersold" price-match promise. If you're buying a big-ticket item, the cashback amount needs to be weighed against whether you'd get a better deal by price-matching to a competitor who might not offer cashback at all. The tier breakdown here is simple — most purchases fall into a single general band — so there's not much category-hunting to do. The real decision is whether to use a cashback site or push for a price match instead, and that depends on the item and the day's competitor pricing.
