Deal link goes to public product page because I couldn't work out how to submit this deal without a link - look at description or screenshot

Found this huge Qantas Points offer in the ANZ app a couple of days ago:

An exclusive offer to ANZ customers only.
Earn 160,000 bonus Qantas Points and $225 back to your new card when you spend $3,000 on eligible purchases in the first 3 months from approval. New card. T&Cs, >eligibility criteria, fees and charges apply (including an Annual Fee, currently $425). Screenshot

You can get to this offer via ANZ Internet Banking in browser, or in the ANZ App.

If you aren't an ANZ customer: I mentioned this offer to a friend who then opened a transaction account and was able to immediately see the offer in their new internet banking and apply for the card. The basic ANZ transaction account is $5 a month, which you can get waived if you deposit $2k into the account each month (doesn't need to stay in the account). You could close the account once you get your bonus points (possibly once you get the card?)

Aside from this massive number of bonus points, card features are:

  • Earn 1 Qantas Point per $1 spent on eligible purchases up to $7,500 per statement period
  • A higher Qantas Points earn rate compared to all other ANZ Frequent Flyer cards
  • Uncapped Qantas Points
  • Complimentary Frequent Flyer Membership and a discount on a 1 year Qantas Club membership
  • Two complimentary Qantas Club lounge invitations each year
  • Complimentary insurances including International Travel Insurance
  • Up to 55 days interest free on purchases

You can see the general details of the card (at it's usual lower offer value) here

I think this might be the highest consumer bonus points offer available at the moment, I certainly haven't seen any higher recently.

If you haven't earned Qantas Points from a credit card in the past 12 months, you may be able to stack with the New Cardholder Bonus of 20,000 points (from Qantas). The ANZ Black card is listed on the relevant page, and it doesn't specify that you have to click through the Qantas page to get the offer, but I haven't tried! The New Cardholder Bonus from Qantas ends on March 31 (there's no end date listed for the ANZ card offer).

Edit: Clarified end date in post applies to 20k top-up offer, not 160k sign-up offer.

    Everytime I click card it logs me out
    Everytime I login it takes me away from card

    Application showed non-customer offer in the end..
    Edit: Use different browser

  • justjennjustis on 28/03/2022 - 22:48

    Devastated - Just got approved for this exact card last Friday. Approval process was super quick for me though (within 3 business days) so defs doable by deadline.

    For those on the same boat as me - unfortunately this deal won't be eligible to you (found out after a solid hour of waiting on the ANZ line).

    Why is this offer so popular despite having to pay $200 Annual free net ($425-$225)

    I got the Amex Business Card 150K Points deal with $3000 spent and First Year $0 Annual Free.

      That is for a business card requiring an ABN;not everyone has an ABN with the minimum income.

      Most frequent flyer cards get up to 120k for the first year (some you get 90 + an extra 30k if you hold the card for more than 12months which is not great for churning)

          You could do the platinum card and get 110k points and $200 back, $295 annual fee (net $95). I think the minimum limit on that one is $6k. Still a decent offer.

    • LoungeLizard on 29/03/2022 - 10:40

      I would say No, you only get 2 x passes and insurance which may or may not be useful. If you spend a lot on the card then the extra QFF points might be worth it, but there are other cards with lower fees and similar points/$ ratios.

  • BeanCounter on 29/03/2022 - 08:46

  • Steve-o on 29/03/2022 - 08:49

    If you spend the required amount within the time frame for the sign up bonus Qantas points, do you forfeit these points if you cancel before they're transferred to your Qantas account? I hit the spending requirement pretty quick and don't like having to hold onto the card for months waiting for the points to transfer.

    • pjwellsey on 29/03/2022 - 23:04

      I would wait for the points to arrive before you cancel your card

      Hard to call up customer support to chase the points if you don't have any active card !

  • barge88 on 29/03/2022 - 09:38

    Roughly how many points would it take to say fly return to Europe or America? Or anywhere? Or if possible could someone post a link where I can find out. Tried having a Google but couldn’t find anything without logging in.

  • elementzer0 on 29/03/2022 - 10:11

    What's the minimum income (if there is one) for these cards? I want those points, but am just a low earning casual. It doesn't seem to mention anywhere.

      $75K

      Officially, they look at your whole financial situation.

      Unofficially (i.e. before they changed the website - might've been instigated by APRA, etc), it used to be $75k for the black ($15k min credit limit) and $35k for the platinum ($6k min credit limit)

      • elementzer0 on 29/03/2022 - 11:15

        Thanks. Saw a few sites saying 75k, but thought it was strange they didn't mention anything about it on any documentation.

      Love this perspective, thanks for the write up!

    • mrcosmo on 29/03/2022 - 22:43

      I just looked into these domestic flights and seems there is an additional $40 cost of taxes, fees and carrier charges when booking those Sydney to Melbourne trips at 8k points each way. So an extra $80 out of pocket on top of those points for a return trip. You can get a Jetstar flight for $90 without using any points.

      From Melbourne to London return the fees add up to $1000. I believe I read if you want to take advantage of the international flights you need to book almost a year in advance to get seats. So it makes me wonder what is the actual best way to use these points?

      By my calculations, with 160k points I can get a return flight from Melbourne to Bangkok and a return flight from Melbourne to Sydney, without any extra fees. I don't think you'll be getting 3 return trips to Singapore, or 2 to Tokyo unless you're paying the extra fees on top.

    • GoodEnoughMom on 01/04/2022 - 10:26

      Hi, do you know if we can activate the travel insurance by paying with points? Thanks.

      • ck009 on 01/04/2022 - 14:59

        No you can't…..you have to pay the entire ticket charges using the credit card for the travel insurance to activate. As fas as I know, AmEx platinum is the only exception (even a part-payment using the card will activate the travel insurance).

        • GoodEnoughMom on 01/04/2022 - 15:12

          Great! More things to keep in mind when choosing a card. Thanks for your information.

        • assailantsky on 02/04/2022 - 00:48

          Incorrect. Used this type of insurance several times:

          Before leaving Australia spend at least AUD$250 on prepaid travel costs for all travellers and charge these costs to your card account;

          https://insurance.agaassistance.com.au/anzau/page/overseasTr…

          Can be ANY prepaid travel costs including taxes when paying with points. Also need to have a return overseas travel ticket for yourself and all travellers

          • ck009 on 03/04/2022 - 17:07

            @Lado: Thanks for this. Do you have any similar reference article for AmEx cards - I looked up but didn't find relevant info.

                Before you begin to transact on your account, you will need to complete an ID check. Please head to your nearest branch with two forms of acceptable ID. "

                If I try to verify online, I have no reference number for my application. I tried using my CRN, but that's obviously not what it's looking for.

                      Hi, do you mean that you re-applied again with second application and it gave you the different option of online verification the second time? Does this mean you now have multiple ANZ accounts or are they superseded or merged?
                      I applied through the desktop and also got the email with only the in-branch ID verification option, so trying to see if I can avoid that, but don't want to end up with a bunch of duplicate saver accounts.

    I've applied for the card and get an application number. It says "We've sent an email to *******@gmail.com with your application details and instructions", but didn't get any email. Is this normal?

        Did you try to call ANZ?

            @Vaywyr: Okay cool, I'll wait too, was about to call as same thing has happened to me. I thought the application process was pretty slick, pre-filling so much stuff, and I was hoping for auto approval with the 60 second count down timer at the end but alas, told me I'd get an email which never came…
