View allI am pondering if it will be flagged as a gift card purchase and thus will not be an eligible transaction.
Thanks!
I also tested a currency conversion service called World Remit, which shows up as "Visa Debit - Purchase" on the statement when I convert to USD. There's a promo to get 3 transfers for free with the code 3FREE, so this might work for cash back, you could send the money to a Wise account, then transfer it back. Might not be worth it for you to deal with though, I have a bank account in the States so it's easy for me.
Oh wow, gift cards don't count? I thought they would, that's good to know, thanks. And also helpful to know that it is "Visa Debit - Purchase" which I am using to keep track. Surprising about the gift cards and lottery ticket though. I wonder if charity lotteries like hospitals, SPCA, firefighters would also not count. I wonder if an RHT would work for this since it just says that the purchase needs to be within 60 days and the money will be deposited 90 days. If the refund is after the 90 days maybe it will be fine to hold an RHT from day 60 to day 91.

Around what date do you expect the cashback, in case I'm lucky and get a few days afterward?
I asked them if it specifically has to say "Visa Debit - Purchase" on the statement and got the following reply:
"Any online purchase made with your Tangerine Visa Debit Card excluding cash equivalents like gift cards, lottery tickets, or crypto. As long as you purchased a service or product, it will count, including bill payments. It doesn't matter how it is written on your statement"
I'm watching it closely and tallying things up so I may leave one of those Funds Transfer amounts as the last few dollars of the $2000 limit and see if it counts, but that won't be verified for almost 90 days.
Spend $20 each and check it yourself.
I'm 99% sure it didn't work.
Don't think it worked.
I just did Costco.
EDIT: I asked tangerine and they replied saying CRA is an accepted vendor. Support message below.

If you pay your Bell Bill payment through app, Yes. It will be eligible. Loading your presto card is also eligible.
If I make a bill payment for Bell from the app or load my presto card, will it be eligible for the cash back ?
Did you call to ask to a rep after you made the payment?
so paying tuition fees online worked? I am planning to pay my professional dues online...
