Key details to keep in mind

• Qantas Frequent Flyer membership. You need to be a Qantas Frequent Flyer member and have to provide your membership number before you can earn Qantas Points with a CBA credit card. The name on your CommBank credit card and your Qantas Frequent Flyer account must also match. If you're not already a member, check out Finder's guide to joining the Qantas Frequent Flyer program for free to save on the $99.50 joining fee.
• Qantas Frequent Flyer Direct fee. The $30 annual rewards fee for Qantas Frequent Flyer Direct adds to the card's costs. Remember to factor that in, along with the card's annual fee and other potential charges.
• Point transfers. Points will be transferred to your Qantas Frequent Flyer account at the end of each statement period (basically once a month). You should see them in your account within 3 days of the transfer.
• Existing CommBank Awards Points. If you earned CommBank Awards points before opting in to Qantas Frequent Flyer Direct, they will automatically be converted to Qantas Points and transferred to your frequent flyer account at the end of the next statement period.
• Rewards program conditions. Once your CommBank Awards points have been exchanged for Qantas Points, the conditions of the Qantas Frequent Flyer program apply and you can't convert them back to CommBank Awards points.
