Woolworths credit cards update in 2023

Credit card issuer Macquarie has announced that it will no longer offer Woolworths credit cards. Between June and August 2023, existing customers will have their Woolworths credit card replaced with a Macquarie Platinum Credit Card that earns points through the Macquarie Rewards program.

A Woolworths spokesperson told Finder: "We'd like to thank our credit card customers for their loyalty over the years and remind them they can continue to get great value offers they had with their credit card, including the bonus 10% off their monthly shop, through being customers of our Everyday Extra program, Everyday Insurance and Woolworths Mobile products."

We've kept other details about Woolworths Credit Cards below for reference. You can also compare a wide range of rewards credit cards available on Finder right now.

Types of credit cards from Woolworths

Note: The details below relate to Woolworths credit cards when they were available in Australia (before April 2023). We have kept the details for reference for existing customers, however these accounts will not be available after October 2023. If you're an existing customer, contact Macquarie Bank on 1300 150 300 for specific details about your account.

Rewards credit cards

The Woolworths Everyday Platinum Credit Card earns credit card reward points per $1 spent on eligible purchases both at Woolworths and everywhere else. The points are automatically converted to Woolworths Shopping Cards every 4 months, with a minimum of 4,000 points equal to a $20 shopping card.

Frequent flyer credit cards

You can use the Woolworths Qantas Platinum Credit Card to earn Qantas Points on eligible spending, with a higher number of points per $1 offered at Woolworths. Other benefits include complimentary travel insurance, a concierge service and exclusive discounts at Woolworths Group retailers.

Standard and platinum Woolworths credit cards

If you're approved for a credit limit of $6,000 or more, you'll be able to enjoy more benefits with a Woolworths Everyday Platinum and Woolworths Qantas Platinum credit card. But if you're approved for a credit limit of less than $6,000, you will be issued with a Woolworths Everyday Card that does not offer platinum benefits.

Benefits of getting a Woolworths credit card

  • 10% off at Woolworths once a month on selected dates

Each month, you'll receive an email offer for 10% off your shop at Woolworths when you scan the barcode on the back of your credit card and pay with it. This offer is available for spending up to $500, which means you can get a maximum of $50 off your shop. Keep in mind that this offer is not available in Tasmania and also excludes spending on certain items.

  • Everyday Rewards

If you link your Everyday Rewards account with a Woolworths credit card, you'll earn Everyday Rewards points when you shop at partner stores and scan the membership barcode on the back of your credit card before paying. This is in addition to the Qantas Points or credit card points you earn when paying with your credit card.

  • Earn more Qantas Points when you spend

If you're a member of Everyday Rewards and choose to earn Qantas Points instead of Everyday Rewards points, you'll get 1,000 frequent flyer points for every 2,000 Everyday Rewards points you earn. Apply for the Woolworths Platinum Qantas Credit Card and you can also rack up Qantas Points per $1 spent on all eligible purchases.

  • 50% off selected wine cases at Cellarmasters

If you buy a selected white, red or mixed case online and pay with a Woolworths credit card, you'll get 50% off the regular price. Note that delivery charges still apply.

  • Save with up to 10% on Woolworths Insurance

Use your Woolworths credit card to pay for a new Woolworths Car, Home, Pet or Travel Insurance policy to save up to 10% on the cost.

  • Visa features and benefits

Woolworths credit cards come with Visa benefits including exclusive entertainment and ticket offers through Visa Entertainment, as well as shopping, dining and travel offers through Visa Offers + Perks. You can also enjoy Visa's worldwide acceptance, contactless payment options and fraud protection services.

      Hi there,

      Thanks for getting in touch. It is essentially advisable to manage your own personal accounts and it will be your own sole decision to entrust it with other people.

      Hope this clarifies!

      Regards,
      Nikki

      Hi HH,

      Thanks for your inquiry.

      Any withdrawal from your account will be considered as a Cash Advance which will incur a fee amounting to $5 or 3% of the value of the transaction, whichever is the greater, applies to each cash advance made on your account, debited to your account at the time of the cash advance.
      Please you’ll still be charged cash advanced FEE but not cash advance interest

      Hope this information helped.

      Cheers,
      Arnold

      Hi BF,

      Thank you for your inquiry.

      If you applied for a Woolworths credit card but didn’t hear anything about your application, call the Customer Service team on 1300 10 1234 and follow the prompts to speak to a representative. You may also want to check the junk folder in your email as it can sometimes get tagged as spam.

      I hope this information has helped.

      Cheers,
      Harold

      Hi Pam,

      Thanks for your question.

      Yes, definitely. Aside from Woolworths store, you can also use your Woolworths credit card when purchasing online, over the phone, etc.
