A different way to earn Frequent Flyer Points this month! If you download and track your steps through the Qantas Assure app during the month of October, for each day you walk 8000 steps or more, you'll receive 30 qantas points. This means you can earn up to 930 Qantas Points this month, just from walking!

During the Qantas Frequent Flyer 30 million Qantas Poinst giveaway, App users will earn Qantas Points through the '30M Points Giveaway' challenge without having to purchase an Eligible Qantas Assure Product.
Qantas Points earned during this promotion will be credited to your QFF account on a fortnightly basis.
30 Qantas Points is the daily maximum number of Qantas Points that can be earned through the '30M Points Giveaway' during the Qantas Frequent Flyer 30 million Qantas Points giveaway.

As part of this promotion, Qantas are also giving you an entry into a competition to win one of 30 Qantas flight vouchers worth $1000 each, each time you do 8000 steps per day.

Also, if you have never downloaded the app before, you'll get 150 points instantly when you do.

    how much is 30 points worth?

    • BigBrother on 01/10/2017 - 12:51

      About 30 cents, if you sell it.

      • DingoBilly on 01/10/2017 - 21:01

        $9.30 for a month of walking…

      • Cc2018 on 01/10/2017 - 22:16

        How to sell points?

    Sometimes it's quicker to walk to your destination then flying qantas so great incentive

      Especially if you take into account Jetstar are Qantas. 30-50 flights per year for work and I learnt very early on never to book Jetstar. 75% of my flights with them were delayed 20+ minutes. I once waited 4.5h in a regional airport watching Virgin and Tiger flights come and go. At least they gave me a $5 voucher for food, it almost paid for half of my sandwich and soft drink.

        Haven't you learnt your lesson then? Start walking instead!

    • CheapSticks on 01/10/2017 - 17:44

      ha ha ha ! Cracked me !

  • iamalsotom on 01/10/2017 - 12:18

    Depends what you use them for. This webpage suggests that for flight upgrades they can be worth as much as 2.28c per point, or for purchases in the qantas store, as little as 0.68c per point.

    So that puts the value of 30 points at between 20.4c - 68.4c.

    Do this every day of October and effectively you'll earn between $6.12 - $20.52 worth of points.

    And the intangible benefits of walking 8,000 steps a day!

    • MikeKulls on 01/10/2017 - 17:47

      It's ok if you walk those steps anyway

  • iamalsotom on 01/10/2017 - 12:19

        He is talking about the source of the info re. the value of points he posted.

  • pointnlarf on 01/10/2017 - 12:21

    The app says 8000 steps is 15 points, 10000 steps is 18 point to a max of 22 points for 20000 steps…

    • melbourne guy on 01/10/2017 - 12:22

      I believe those are the normal rates you earn if you're doing the 28 day trial, or you have purchased a Qantas Assure product. You don't need a to hold a Qantas Assure product for this promotion.

    • melbourne guy on 01/10/2017 - 12:44

      Only issue with that is you can only earn a max 30 points per day per QFF account :(

    UNINSTALLED as phone not compatible /outdated

    Which phones are compatible with the Qantas Assure App?

    iPhone users

    If you have an iPhone 5s and above or the iPod Touch 5th gen and above, you can track your steps using the iPhone or iPod via Apple’s Health App. These devices come with software that take in sensor data from the accelerometers, gyroscopes, and compasses built into your phone. The co-processor then calculates your step count so a wearable is not needed (but can still be used!). To ensure that your steps are being tracked, you will need to carry your iPhone while stepping or running

  • CheapskateQueen on 01/10/2017 - 14:20

    Just installed the app and you can earn a few more points if you challenge friends… well the top 3 do, so looking for 2 friends haha

    Who wants to be my friend? Lol

    • montorola on 01/10/2017 - 16:07

      Depends, are you hot? Long hair?

      Geez, long time lurker. Decided to create an account just to reply to this.
      I'm on the same boat, nobody I know what's the app. I can message you an Invite!
      Edit* I can't start a private conversation on new account. Makes sense…

    • puffinfresh on 02/10/2017 - 21:11

      I have no friends in the app, so I come first in all the challenges and still get the (locked) points.

      • puffinfresh on 01/11/2017 - 12:07

        I see they've updated this. My comment was based on my experience with the app several months ago.

    This promo is good for newbies who haven't used the app before. After 30 days you'll get any extra points earned credited to your account as well as the points earned during this promo. After the trial period any points earned are locked until you sign up with a Qantas Assure product.

    Also noob question but you have to be a Qantas FF member do you? And how long does that take?

    • puffinfresh on 02/10/2017 - 21:13

      There are some locations in Sydney and Melbourne where you can scan a QR code and I guess win more points. I'm hoping someone can share the QR codes on here.

          Have you been able to get to Chatswood today mate? If you could possibly upload a pic of code, that'd be sweet! ;)
          Either way, thanks for trying! (for us too!)

          Hey, did you happen to get the one at Circular Quay in the end, if yes how many points did it give you mate?
          If not, no worries- hoping novousp (below) is able to get us the ones in Melbourne today and/or tomorrow so we can finally give it a go!

      • lilkid28 on 07/10/2017 - 15:31

        Yeah I get the impression it's for members that haven't downloaded the Qantas Assure app.

      If you have an iPhone 5s or newer, or an Android phone with a built in pedometer, you can make the app sync with the step count data on your phone. Just make sure your phone is on you as much as you can for maximum steps!

  • MRENB7 on 02/10/2017 - 13:24

    I can't for the life of me get it to sync with my Fitbit…keeps asking for me to allow it to access the data, but just keeps going back to the same screen. Anyone else with that problem?

  • tim_geo on 02/10/2017 - 23:44

    Had the app before, so only earning locked points for daily and weekly challenges.
    Just completed the 8,000 for the 30 points promo, I think the 30 points are unlocked from how it shows in the history. The test Will be if they post to my QFF accounts after 2 weeks…

  • themonty on 18/10/2017 - 17:21

    If anyone happens to be have a QR code pic from Chatswood Centre Mall today and can upload, please do.
    Otherwise/And if anyone else could do the same over the next few days, would be awesome:

    19 Oct 2017 (Instant scan & win)
    First Fleet Park, Circular Quay, Sydney

    21 Oct 2017 (Instant scan & win)
    Centenary Square, Paramatta, Sydney

          bad news, folks. First, they are there not for the full day, but just till 4 pm. My partner came there 15 mins later and they were all packed to go. There is the second bad news, all QR codes are unique and she managed to get only two for me and her, and once it's activated, it looks like you can't use it the second time!

          Will try to get more of them tomorrow as I will be there in the morning.

          P.S.: Get 1000 points for this code, so really nice one, but that's a shame they didn't say anything about time or rules of activation.
