The ANZ Frequent Flyer Black Credit Card offers plenty of points and travel perks, including a big bonus Qantas Points offer for new customers, lounge invitations and complimentary travel insurance. It also earns a competitive 1 Qantas Point per $1 on eligible purchases up to $7,500 per statement period, then 0.5 points per $1 for the rest of that statement period. But with a relatively high $425 annual fee, you should make sure you get enough value beyond the bonus points if you plan to keep this card.

Our expert says
"I took out the ANZ Frequent Flyer Black Credit Card about a year ago. I was looking to switch from a Virgin Amex to a Qantas Visa, as Virgin flights were harder to redeem for US travel and Amex sometimes incurred a surcharge or wasn't accepted. The ANZ card has more bonus points on application and Visa is much more widely accepted. But the earn rate is slightly less, the ongoing annual fee is slightly more, and after you spend $7K in a month you only earn 0.5 points per $1 spent. I also found the Amex app much easier to use than the ANZ app, especially for payments. I like this card overall, but I'd like a few more perks, the removal of the half points cap for a $425 card, and an easier to use app."

ANZ’s conditions say that the offer is only available if you haven’t held an ANZ Rewards card in the last 12 months. As you cancelled over 12 months ago, you should be eligible if you don’t currently hold any other ANZ Rewards cards. Hope this helps.

Hi,
I would like to ask about ANZ Frequent flyer black credit card.
If I want to close the card before 1 year how much point will I get.
Thanks

The number of points you would earn would depend on your spending. To get the initial sign-up bonus of 90,000 points, you’d need to spend at least $5,000 on the card in the first 3 months. If you cancelled the card at that point, you wouldn’t earn any additional points. If you kept it, you’d typically earn 1 point per $1 spent (up to the monthly cap of $7,500). But the only way to get the additional 40,000 points is to renew for the second year.

I am planning to purchase a car soon. If I pay my down payment with this card, will it qualify towards the minimum spend criteria ? Also I am planning to pay off this card bill using another balance transfer credit card. Will that have any impact on the points earned ?
Sarah Megginson Finder
December 12, 2024
Hi Kushal,
Yes this down payment would be considered an eligible spend, as long as the transaction is processed as a purchase (at the point of sale) and not a BPay payment.
Once you have earned points on your card, you’re free to use the card however you please in accordance with the terms and conditions. Some cards require you to keep the account open for a set period (usually 12-15 months), but that’s not the case with this card, so if you wish to apply for a balance transfer to pay it off that wouldn’t be likely to present any issues.
Keep in mind that you may not be approved for the balance transfer card, so make sure you have a back up plan to pay off the balance if this happens.
Hope this helps!

Are car insurance and registration considered eligible purchases and how long does it take to receive my CC
Richard Whitten Finder
December 10, 2024
Hi Kelly,
If you pay for you car insurance with the card that should earn you points. Government charges like registration fees won’t earn points, however.
The card should take 5 to 10 business days to arrive.

Once you meet the criteria with spends in the first 3 months and the $200 dollars annual fee rebate is credited to the card account can you transfer it out to another bank account other than ANZ?
Richard Whitten Finder
October 07, 2024
Hi Troy,
You’d have to check with ANZ but I suspect it would be complicated. It’s a credit card account and so transferring money to a bank account is either not allowed, or is considered a cash advance (which means a fee plus a high interest rate).
But you should check with ANZ directly.
