$10 Google Play credit for Chromecast & Chromecast Audio

Deal Link:
Expiry:
February 24, 2016
Saw this deal while looking at the Google Play store. https://store.google.com/category/tv_and_audio

The $10 credit is good for both Chromecast and Chromecast Audio this time. Google Play store offering free delivery.

Terms of the offer are here: https://store.google.com/terms/chromeca ... _credit_10

I was looking for a Chromecast Audio myself so this offer was timely. :D

Might be useful for other RFDer's as well.

Didn't it used to be $20 for a Chromecast?

Actually I think that ended a month ago. $10 is still better than nothing for people that needs one. Thanks OP, ordered one! This beats over paying for those on kijiji!

As I recall from when I bought mine last time, you get the money in your Google Play account once it's registered, so no. I bought mine from a store in town...

I believe this deal is google store specific according to:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/02/03 ... purchases/
http://www.androidcentral.com/get-10-go ... cast-audio


can someone who has bought from a third party confirm progress? I have a not-yet activated CC audio, I would like to take advantage of this since I missed out on the previous $20 credit due to Chromecast Audio being excluded.

Since the regular Chromecast does movies, audio, etc. and the Audio CC does audio only. What is the advantage of getting the Audio one?

I believe I can answer that. If you don't have a TV or prefer to stream just music, this is a better buy. The CC Video does not have a 3.5mm aux output. It only has hdmi out that requires a complicated workaround (which I have done) in order to output audio to an amplifier/speaker without a hdmi port for example.

Also with CC Audio, you can group multiple CCs and create multiple rooms/multiple speakers set up - playing the same song in every room, for example (This is the main reason I chose the CC Audio over the CC Video device). CC Audio can also output higher bitrate audio and has optical digital mini-TOSLINK output (I haven't tested that)

To use the $10 credit do I need to link a credit card to my account? I'd rather not use the credit than have my card linked.

It doesn't say that the item has to be bought from the Google play store.

For the previous Google Play credit offer back in December I bought the Chromecast V2 from a local store. No issues getting the Google Play credit.

Is it worth the upgrade from the old chromecast to the new one? The old one works completely fine but the new one have some performance upgrade that might be useful.

London Drugs has the CC on sale tomorrow where you get a $10 London Drugs gift card with a CC purchase. Wonder if you can combine that with also receiving a $10 Google Play credit?

Thanks, discount applies at checkout, so it still shows at $45 on the site for anyone wondering.

I sub to All Access family, so I'll use that $10 credit pretty quickly. $25 for the CC audio is low enough for me to try it out.
