Net-a-Porter used to carry one of the strongest cashback layers in luxury. After Mytheresa's parent (now LuxExperience) bought it from Richemont in April 2025, the rates reset: Rakuten pays up to 2.5% on full price and 1% on sale, TopCashback pays 3%. The last Amex Offer expired in August 2025. What's left is the one-time 10% FIRST10 code, which TopCashback lists (so the two combine cleanly), a rewards tier program, and the twice-yearly sale. On a first order the stack clears about 13%. After that, it's the sale or nothing.

  • TopCashback
    3% full price (3% with the listed code), 4% beauty, 1% sale and fine jewelry
    3%
  • Rakuten cashback
    Up to 2.5% full price, 1% sale; unlisted codes may void it

Mr Porter has the card offer, Net-a-Porter doesn't. The $100-on-$500 Amex and Chase offers live through early November are Mr Porter only. Unisex pieces and accessories sold on both sites are cheaper to buy there right now.

Retailer overview

Net-a-Porter is the luxury womenswear site founded by Natalie Massenet in 2000 and, for a decade, the flagship of Richemont’s Yoox Net-a-Porter group. On April 24, 2025, Mytheresa completed its purchase of YNAP; the combined company is now LuxExperience B.V., with Richemont holding a third. The Outnet, the off-price sister site, was sold to a separate US operator in April 2026 and is no longer in the group, so the old “does Net-a-Porter price-match The Outnet” question no longer applies.

Under Richemont, Net-a-Porter’s affiliate program was unusually generous and the portals paid 6-10%. Under LuxExperience the rates have settled into the 2-3% range that’s normal for luxury, and the card-offer cadence has slowed. The site itself is unchanged: 800-plus designers, same-day delivery in New York and London, 28-day returns.

Cashback portal strategy

Portal Full price Sale Notes
TopCashback 3% (3% with FIRST10) 1% 4% beauty, 1% fine jewelry. Lists FIRST10, so the code doesn’t void cashback.
Rakuten Up to 2.5% 1% Store page is rakuten.com/shop/net-a-porter. No codes listed; unlisted codes may void. US site only.

TopCashback is the portal here, on rate and on code compatibility. Neither portal pays meaningfully on sale merchandise anymore, so during the sale the discount is the sale.

Credit card / Amex Offer strategy

Nothing is live. Amex ran $100 back on $500 through August 4, 2025; nothing since. Bank of America (3%, expired September 14, 2026) and US Bank (5%, expired March 2025) ran click-through offers that work like a portal rather than stacking with one.

Mr Porter, by contrast, has a $100-on-$500 Amex Offer and a matching Chase Offer live through November 8 and 9, 2026. For anything sold on both sites (unisex accessories, some sneakers, fragrance), buy it on Mr Porter while those run.

Net-a-Porter codes as apparel or department store; no travel-card bonus applies.

What to wait for vs. buy now

Buy now (with FIRST10): a full-price piece in a popular size that won’t survive to the sale, from a brand not on the exclusion list.

Wait for the sale: anything from Bottega Veneta or The Row (excluded from cashback on both portals, so the code is your only layer either way), basics, and any piece where 50% off changes the decision.

Buy on Mr Porter instead: anything sold on both sites, until the $100 card offers expire in November.

Common exclusions

  • Rakuten pays nothing on Balenciaga, Cartier, Gucci, Alexander McQueen, Bottega Veneta, Saint Laurent, The Row, fine jewelry, or fine watches
  • TopCashback excludes The Row, Cartier, Gucci, Alexander McQueen, Bottega Veneta, and gift cards
  • Sale merchandise earns 1% on both portals
  • Unlisted codes may void Rakuten cashback; TopCashback lists FIRST10
  • Final Sale items are non-returnable; 28-day returns otherwise

Checkout sequence

  1. Check whether the item is on Mr Porter too. If it is and you hold a live $100 offer, buy it there.
  2. First order? Have FIRST10 ready. Check that your brand isn't on the exclusion list.
  3. Clean browser session, ad blockers off. Activate TopCashback and click through to net-a-porter.com.
  4. Sign in (Rewards tier credits automatically). Build the cart. Apply FIRST10 at checkout.
  5. Check Amex and Chase Offers out of habit; nothing is live as of mid-September.
  6. Pay with your best flat-return card with purchase protection.
  7. Confirm TopCashback shows the order pending within 48 hours.
Worked example

$1,500 first order, full price, non-excluded brand

FIRST10 10% off$150.00
TopCashback 3% on $1,350$40.50
Card offer$0.00
Total saved~$190 (13%)

In May this page claimed $270 to $300 on the same order. The portal reset accounts for the whole difference.

FAQ

What happened to the 8% Rakuten rate?
It's gone. Rakuten's net-a-porter.com page (note the slug is net-a-porter, not netaporter) shows up to 2.5% on full price and 1% on sale as of September 15, 2026. The drop follows the April 2025 sale of YNAP to Mytheresa's parent, LuxExperience, which reset the affiliate program at both Net-a-Porter and Mr Porter.
Does FIRST10 void the cashback?
Not on TopCashback, which lists the code on its Net-a-Porter page and pays 3% with it. Rakuten lists no codes and says unlisted codes may void cashback, so use TopCashback for a first order.
Is there a card offer right now?
No. The last Amex Offer ($100 on $500) expired August 4, 2025. A Bank of America 3% and a US Bank 5% click-through offer have both expired. Mr Porter has live $100 offers through November; Net-a-Porter doesn't.
Which brands are excluded from cashback?
Rakuten excludes Balenciaga, Cartier, Gucci, Alexander McQueen, Bottega Veneta, Saint Laurent, The Row, fine jewelry, and fine watches. TopCashback excludes The Row, Cartier, Gucci, Alexander McQueen, Bottega Veneta, and gift cards. If you're buying one of those, the code is your only layer.
What is NET-A-PORTER Rewards?
A tier program launched in 2023: Silver, Gold, Platinum, and EIP, set by annual spend (EIP around ÂŁ10,000). It's perks, not points: free shipping, early sale access, personal shopping at the top tiers. Nothing to stack, but early sale access is worth something in a popular size.
What's the return window?
28 days from receipt. Final Sale items are non-returnable. Free US standard shipping threshold is unverified (sources conflict between $150 and $200).
