Our verdict

Offers 50,000 bonus Flybuys points and earns points per $1 on eligible purchases you make anywhere, with a $99 annual fee.

The Coles Rewards Mastercard offers one of the highest earn rates among cards that are linked to the Flybuys program, earning up to 2 points per $1 on eligible spending. As an example of rewards, you can redeem 2,000 Flybuys points for $10 off at partnered stores or 1,000 Velocity Points if you're chasing frequent flyer rewards. That means the 50,000 bonus Flybuys points could get you $250 Flybuys Dollars to save on shopping at Coles, Kmart, Target and other partners or 25,000 Velocity Points.

Pros

  • 50,000 bonus Flybuys points
  • 2 Flybuys points per $1 spent on eligible purchases up to $3,000 per statement period (then 1 point per $1 spent up to $8,000 per statement period)

Cons

  • Doesn't offer complimentary travel insurance, unlike some other rewards cards
  • Charges a 3% foreign transaction fee
  • Standard interest rates are relatively high

The Coles Rewards Mastercard offers 50,000 bonus points when you apply by 03 March 2025 and spend $3,000 in the first 3 months. It also earns 2 Flybuys points per $1 on eligible purchases up to $3,000 in a statement period, which drops to 1 point per $1 spent up to $8,000 per statement period. If you’re approved for a platinum card, you’ll also get access to complimentary insurance cover for eligible purchases. But you can’t apply for a platinum card separately, so you won’t know if you’re eligible for one unless you’re approved.

Does Cole’s Mastercard link with budgeting apps like Frollo?

Hi Ash,


From what I can tell from a quick look on a few forums, you can link a Coles Mastercard to Frollo. But I can’t confirm it on Frollo’s site.

Hi Marilyn,


All of the purchases you’ve described are eligible purchases, it covers all types of everyday spending. Purchases that are considered ineligible include gambling, cash advances, refunds, fees and charges, interest and payments to the ATO.


Hope this helps!

Can I get free access to Melbourne airport lounges (and if so, which ones?) with a Coles MasterCard?

Hi Tj,


This card doesn’t come with any lounge pass benefits. You may want to look at some of the reward card options for these perks.


Hope this helps!

If I have a Coles Reward Mastercard and use it at an eligible store scanning my Flybuys card, do I get 1 point/per $ for scanning the Flybuys card and also 2 points/per $ for using the Coles Reward Mastercard? Thatis 3 points in total.
