Google Nest has no birthday reward for you. The only birthday on Google’s store pages is Google’s own: a sale for the company’s 28th anniversary that ran September 13 through 27, 2026, and it’s over. No cashback route turned up either.
What Google Nest Is
Wikipedia’s Google Nest article says “Nest Labs was founded in 2010 by former Apple engineers Tony Fadell and Matt Rogers” and “On January 13, 2014, Google announced plans to acquire Nest Labs for $3.2 billion in cash.” It adds that in July 2018 all Google Home electronics products began to be marketed under the Google Nest brand. Nest devices are sold in the Google Store, which is where the anniversary sale ran.
The Anniversary Sale Is Not Your Birthday
Google’s store magazine page read: “Celebrate Google’s 28th birthday with special savings on the latest Google Pixel phones, Fitbit wearables, and more.” It ran “From September 13 through September 27, 2026,” and the page said “Act quickly: deals end on September 27, 2026.” It’s the company’s birthday and it applied to everyone. The sale text names Pixel phones, smartwatches, earbuds and Fitbit fitness trackers, and Nest devices aren’t in that list.
No Real Cashback Route Found
Price.com’s Nest page says “Cash back and coupons are not currently available for Nest.” TopCashback’s Google Nest, Google Store, Nest and Google addresses all returned not-found pages. Fluz lists Google Nest at “1.5% cashback,” its generic baseline. Rates move, so check the portals again before a big purchase.
What Was Actually Checked
The anniversary page, Google’s help page on creating a Google Account, the Google Store’s connected home category page and the Google Home Premium help page were read. The category page has an email box that says “Be the first to know about Google Store news, tips, and offers,” with no birthday text anywhere on it. The Google Account help page does say “You’ll be asked to add your birthday and gender,” but that’s part of setting up an account and it comes with no reward.
Eligibility and Cost
There’s nothing to claim. The help page says Nest Aware became Google Home Premium on October 1, 2025, so Nest Aware is the earlier name. Google One members get a store-credit perk, and it isn’t tied to a birthday either.
