Hi, I need to pay about $5000 to ATO as income tax in the next few weeks. I want to charge it to a credit card to get bonus points or cash back. I am aware that most credit card don't allow rewards on government related transactions.

Do you know any credit card which allows rewards on the ATO transaction?

Thanks.

    amex.
    or:
    ANY CC but use intermediary provider ie Snip, and many more too many to list just google. of course you need to pay a bit fee for the service

    you can use BeemIt, but
    'Payment (including through Checkout with Beem It): There is a $2,000 per day payment limit, and a rolling 30 day limit of $10,000. '

    Apple gift cards of course.

      But there is a sign at my local Woolies saying

      The ATO will never ask for payment by apple gift cards

      I'm confused.

        ATO prefers Google gift cards now, woolies is just being friendly. You can trust the internet

    Thanks, all. I have shortlisted some cards and will use them with Beem It.

    • daft009 on 14/11/2021 - 09:46

      Use any visa/mc with beem it and earn full points

      • ledgisv2 on 02/12/2021 - 00:07

        I plan to do the same. Do you have any idea if westpac credit card will incur any fees while using beem it to pay ATO?

          It shouldn't, I use my St George Visa
          Just do a small tester.. Only way to be sure

            @daft009: Good to know I have a St George card. Do you use it with Been It?

          • daft009 on 02/12/2021 - 09:59

            @daft009: oops i mean "it should"

          • georgegates5 on 05/12/2021 - 21:36

            @daft009: i had st george visa card, and it never work with Bpay beem it.

            Westpac mastercard seems to work fine with beem it bpay.

            how did you managed to get it to work? or was this a recent beem it update?

            • daft009 on 06/12/2021 - 07:59

              @georgegates5: Just added it and it worked.
              Been using for 3-4 months

              • georgegates5 on 09/12/2021 - 07:05

                @daft009: weird tho. oh well will have to try a different visa card in the future.

                • bobwokeup on 09/12/2021 - 15:15

                  @georgegates5: I just added my St George card too and it works. Might have been an issue at the time you were trying to add?

            • ledgisv2 on 08/12/2021 - 22:58

              @georgegates5: Was it westpac credit card. I wanted to fulfill the spending requirement to get the 400 cash back. Can you confirm if it incurs any fees or not?

  • kanad on 15/11/2021 - 22:58

    Citibank. Using the payall feature you can pay to any bsb & account. There is no fee till Oct 22.

      This ^ is how I’ve been doing it although I didn’t know that the fee-free offer had been extended again.
