Expert review

The Diners Club Business Card gives you a mix of rewards, perks and tools to manage business spending. This includes statements that meet the Australian Taxation Office (ATO) requirements for use instead of tax invoices – a handy feature if you find it hard to keep all your receipts and invoices organised.

With this card, you earn 1 point per $1 on purchases and cash advances but not for government charges (including payments to the ATO). It’s one of the few cards that offers point transfers to Qantas Frequent Flyer, along with a mix of cashback, gift card and shopping rewards offered through the Diners Club Rewards website.

The annual cost of this account is broken down into different elements: a $95 annual fee for the account and a yearly $77 rewards fee mean you’ll pay $172 per year with one card. If you want additional cards for employees, you’ll pay an $80 annual fee per additional card – so compare a few options to decide if this adds up for your business.

Card benefits

Diners Club Rewards. This card earns 1 point per $1 spent on eligible transactions, including purchases and cash advances. Transactions that don't earn points include account fees and charges, liquidated damages and government charges. The points you earn can be redeemed through the Diners Club Rewards program for gift cards, cashback, frequent flyer point transfers and a range of other rewards.
No pre-set spending limit. As a charge card, you won't be issued with a set credit limit like you would be with a credit card. Instead, your spending power will be determined based on your estimated expenses and ongoing spending habits. Just keep in mind that you will need to pay back whatever you spend within the 51-day statement period.

Expense management tools. The Diners Club Business Card offers statements you can use instead of tax invoices when submitting expenses to the ATO, separated GST details for purchases, quarterly BAS (Business Activity Statement) reporting and online account access.
Airport lounge access. This card gives you access to airport lounges all around the world. Just show your Diners Club card and a valid boarding pass at participating lounges to get entry. Some lounges also offer guest entry, usually for a fee. You can search for participating lounges on the Diners Club website.
Complimentary insurance. For travel, this card gives you access to international travel insurance, interstate flight inconvenience insurance and transit accident insurance. For shopping, you get access to purchase cover, extended warranty insurance and a guaranteed pricing scheme when you buy eligible items. Make sure you read the insurance product disclosure statement provided by Diners Club for full details on when you're covered and how to make a claim.
Merchant search tool. If you're not sure where you can use a Diners Club card, the website has a search tool that lets you see all the different businesses and locations that accept Diners Club.
