Bonus points: 100,000
Purchase rate: 20.99% p.a.
Reward point per $ spent: 1

Our verdict

Offers up to 100,000 bonus NAB Rewards Points and a discounted $45 annual fee in the first year, which goes to $195 after that.

The NAB Rewards Platinum card is suited to cardholders who want to get rewarded for their spending and like the flexibility of bank reward points. Right now, you can get 80,000 bonus NAB Rewards Points when you spend at least $1,000 on everyday purchases within the first 60 days from account opening. And another 20,000 points when you keep your card open for over 12 months. If you do collect the maximum 100,000 bonus points, you would have enough points for $480 worth of gift cards. You could also transfer them and get 50,000 Velocity Points for frequent flyer rewards.

The NAB Rewards program also offers point transfers Cathay Pacific (Asia Miles), Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer, Air New Zealand Airpoints, Accor Live Limitless and Flybuys. Similar to many other credit card reward programs, you can also get retail items or donate to charitable causes. But, while the discounted $45 annual fee in the first year helps you save in the short-term, keep in mind that you’ll need to pay the ongoing $195 annual fee in the second year before you can collect the last 20,000 bonus points on offer with this card.

Otherwise, the card's 20.99% p.a. variable purchase rate applies.

For the bonus points offer, what is included in everyday purchase? Can it include a car insurance payment?

Angus Kidman Finder

September 23, 2024

Hi Ravi, car insurance payments would qualify as everyday purchases if your insurer allows you to pay them via credit card – not all of them do. Also compulsory payments (such as CTP green slips in NSW) might be classified as “government expenditure” and not qualify. Hope that helps!

Hi,

If i made an online purchase from an international seller (eg: amazon) what would the charges be?

Thank you.

Rench Finder

June 24, 2017

Hi Wei,

Thanks for your inquiry.

There are no charges if you will be using your NAB Rewards Platinum Card when purchasing through international sellers/online stores, like Amazon. You will be informed by the seller/store if there are any fees that will include in your purchase. It should show the rundown and total of your purchase on the provided online receipt.

Cheers,

Rench
