Qantas business credit card options
If you want a business credit card that earns Qantas Points, there are two main options:
- Cards linked to your Qantas Frequent Flyer account. These cards are linked to your individual Qantas Frequent Flyer account, similar to most personal frequent flyer credit cards.
- Cards linked to Qantas Business Rewards. These cards earn Qantas Points through the Qantas Business Rewards program, which you can redeem for flights or transfer to any personal Qantas Frequent Flyer account. This gives you the flexibility to use Qantas Points for your business, yourself or someone else (like an employee).
I am disappointed with the Qantas frequent flyer programme.
I wish to utilise Kris Flyer points. Can you inform me of current best deals with credit cards AUD spent to Kris Flyer points?
Currently, I use NAB credit cards linked to Qantas frequent flyer automatically.
Presumably, I can notify NAB to cancel this agreement and use this card for conversion to Kris Flyer points?
I believe Citi Bank used to have the best conversion to Kris Flyer. Is this still the case?
Business expenditure such as tax etc and other gov. depts; can you advise best card utilisation for points accumulation using which card to pay these bills? I note that some cards have exclusion clauses for payment to gov. institutions.
Many thanks in anticipation of your reply.

Hi David,
Thanks for getting in touch with Finder. I’m sorry to hear about how you are disappointed with the Qantas Frequent Flyer programme.
As of this time, there aren’t any credit cards in Australia that currently directly earn Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer Miles and that includes NAB. However, many reward credit cards such as NAB allows you to earn points for your everyday spending, which you can then transfer to your KrisFlyer account (or to another partnered frequent flyer program). With this option, you usually need to earn a minimum number of credit card reward points before you can redeem them for KrisFlyer Miles.
With this in mind, what you can do is notify NAB that you want to earn reward points instead. When you have enough reward points, then you can convert them into KrisFlyer Miles points.
Citibank allows you to get 1 KrisFlyer mile for every 1.5 Citi Reward points. However, you would first need to check with your provider to confirm since this may change from time to time.
As of now, American Express gives you a 1:1 transfer ratio from American Express reward points to KrisFlyer miles. You may also refer to our list of Singapore Airlines credit cards to know the other banks and how much points they give for 1 Krisflyer miles point. Please read details under the subheading, “Which banks can transfer rewards points to Singapore KrisFlyer Miles?”
It is worth noting though that many rewards programs exclude utility payments and government charges from earning points, or offer a reduced rate of points for these types of payments. To help you, see our guide about paying bills with a credit card to know each provider with reward programs that let you earn reward points for most everyday purchases as well as the types of transactions that are not eligible for earning points.
I hope this helps. Should you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out again.
Have a wonderful day!
Cheers,
Joshua
I am looking for an uncapped card that gives me the best redemption rate for qantas points, where I can spend $60,000 plus per month and I don’t want American Express. Can you advise which is the best at the moment, also with sign on points?
Hi Mark!
Thanks for the comment.

Can you advise the best business credit card, i want to just pay my quarterly BAs with this card. I have been told you can accuse Qantas points from these payments?
Hi Sam,
Thanks for your question.
You can check our article about earning points when paying taxes. You’ll be able to compare business credit cards that let you earn rewards and Qantas points when you pay to the ATO.
Cheers,

Is Amex the only business card to offer points on Govt dept purchase (i.e. RTA), currently 0.5 per dollar sent but going to 0.25 per $ from July 1.
Thanks
Hi Mark,
Thanks for your inquiry.
That is correct. You may also refer to our guide to compare credit cards that have rewards points earnings and allow payments to the ATO and see points per $1 for government charges.
Cheers,
Jonathan

Hi Simon,
Thanks for your question.
You can compare and apply by reading through uncapped frequent flyer credit cards.
I hope this will help.
