How do Qantas frequent flyer credit cards work?

A Qantas credit card allows you to earn Qantas Points for each dollar you spend using the card. These points are then added to your Qantas Frequent Flyer account and you can redeem them for rewards like flights, upgrades and shopping.

You’ll need to be a Qantas Frequent Flyer member to earn Qantas Points. If you are not already a member, some cards offer complimentary membership.

Frequently Asked Questions about Qantas Frequent Flyer Credit Cards

A Qantas credit card can be a good way to earn Qantas Points, however they often have higher annual fees and interest rates than non-frequent flyer cards. If you are considering a Qantas Frequent Flyer credit card, it’s a good idea to first ask yourself the following questions:

  • Do you pay your closing credit card balance in full each month? Interest rates on frequent flyer credit cards are typically around 20% p.a.
  • Do you want to earn points to redeem for flights or flight upgrades?
  • Are you already a Qantas Frequent Flyer member or keen to sign up?

A frequent flyer credit card might not be the best option if you:

  • rarely pay off your credit card balance in full,
  • only plan to use your credit card occasionally, or
  • only want to redeem points for other items like cashback, gift cards and shopping vouchers, not flights.

If you are likely to carry some debt on your credit card, it’s possible that the interest you pay will outweigh the benefits. In this instance, you may want to consider a low rate credit card instead.

There are a few things to look out for when comparing Qantas frequent flyer credit cards. These include:

  • Points earn rate – check how many Qantas Points you can earn per dollar spent. Also check whether there are any point caps that apply.
  • Sign-up bonus – many cards have large bonus points offers for new customers. You’ll usually need to spend a certain amount in the first few months of having the card to receive the bonus Qantas Points.
  • Annual fee and interest rate – frequent flyer cards typically charge higher annual fees and interest rates than non-rewards cards. Check whether or not the higher cost is worth the rewards you expect to earn on the card each year.
  • Extras – some cards offer additional features such as complimentary travel insurance, purchase protection insurance and lounge access. Remember to read the T&Cs to make sure any complimentary policy suits your needs.

If you’re considering taking out a Qantas frequent flyer credit card, you can start your search by comparing cards with Canstar, using the comparison tool at the top of this page.

There are a few ways to earn Qantas Points with a credit card, such as using a Qantas credit card directly or exchanging rewards points on other cards for Qantas Points.

  • Frequent Flyer Credit Cards: You can earn Frequent Flyer Points per dollar spent and they will be transferred to your Qantas Frequent Flyer account. The number of Qantas Points you earn could vary from card to card.
  • Rewards Credit Cards: You can also transfer reward points into Qantas Points. Rewards credit cards have their own reward programs where you can earn reward points per dollar spent. Many of these programs allow you to transfer your points into airline points, including Qantas.

Qantas Points can expire if you don’t earn or use any points over an 18-month period. Using a Qantas credit card could help you avoid having your points expire, as you can earn points per dollar spent.

Most everyday purchases will be eligible purchases, but there are some transactions that won’t be eligible. This will depend on the credit card provider. Common exclusions include interest, fees and charges, cash advances and balance transfers.

Important information

For those that love the detail

This advice is general and has not taken into account your objectives, financial situation or needs. Consider whether this advice is right for you.

Canstar may earn a fee from its Online Partners for referrals from its website tables, and from sponsorship or promotion of certain products. Fees payable by product providers for referrals and sponsorship or promotion may vary between providers, website position, and revenue model. Sponsorship/promotion fees may be higher than referral fees. If a product is sponsored or promoted, it’s an ad and it is clearly marked as such. An ad might appear in different places on our website, such as in comparison tables and articles. Ads may be displayed in a fixed position in a table, regardless of the product's rating, price or other attributes. The location of an ad doesn’t indicate any ranking or rating by Canstar. Payment of fees for ads does not influence our Star Ratings. See How We Get Paid to find out more.

The Credit Cards Star Ratings are updated daily based on product features at that date, except for the Overseas Travel profile which is updated annually. Current rates, product features and fees are displayed and may be different to what was rated. The results don’t include every provider in the market and we may not compare all features relevant to you. You can find a description of the initial sort order below the table. Depending on which card feature/use you are looking at, the results will be sorted as follows:

  • Low fee is sorted by Star Ratings, then lowest Annual Fee, then alphabetically by brand.
  • Rewards is sorted by Star Ratings, then lowest Annual Fee, then alphabetically by brand.
  • Frequent Flyer is sorted by Star Ratings, then highest airline points per dollar, then alphabetically by brand.
  • Balance Transfer is sorted by Star Ratings, then lowest balance transfer rate, then lowest rate for the longest period, then lowest revert rate, then lowest upfront fee, and then alphabetically by brand. Please note that Balance Transfer Star Ratings are not for balance transfer suitability but are instead based on the Low Rate profile. 
  • All card types is sorted by highest Points per dollar spent, then lowest Annual fee, then alphabetically by brand.
  • Overseas Travel is sorted by Star Ratings, then lowest currency conversion on purchases, then lowest annual fee.

 

You can use the sort buttons at the top of each column to re-order the display. Learn more about our Credit Cards Star Rating Methodology and our Travel Credit Card and Travel Debit Card Star Ratings Methodology. The Occasional Overseas Traveller rating is shown in the table. The rating shown is only one factor to take into account when considering products. 

The products and Star Ratings in the table might not match your exact inputs in the selector. Sometimes the methodology uses profiles with categories or bands (e.g. income, loan amount or monthly spend), but sometimes a single methodology, without any categories or bands, is applied. The results will show the products that most closely match your selection, based on our profiles. If you are unsure about any terms used in the comparison table please refer to the glossary.

What is a Target Market Determination?

A Target Market Determination (‘TMD’) is a document that explains which people particular financial products may be suitable for (the target market) and sets out any conditions around how financial products can be distributed to consumers.

Why do product issuers provide Target Market Determinations?

From 5 October 2021, TMDs are compulsory for most financial products.

Issuers and distributors of financial products must take reasonable steps that are likely to result in financial products reaching consumers in the target market defined by the product issuer.

We recommend that you consider the TMD before making a purchase decision. Contact the product issuer directly for a copy of the TMD.
