Our verdict

This card offers up to 80,000 bonus Qantas Points, travel perks and a discounted $349 annual fee in the first year.

The Qantas Premier Platinum has competitive points per $1 earn rates and travel perks including lounge invitations and a discounted companion flight offer. If you're a new cardholder, you'll also get 50,000 bonus Qantas Points when you spend $3,000 on eligible purchases within the first 3 months from approval. And another 30,000 bonus points if you met the above spend criteria and haven’t earned Qantas Points with a credit card in the last 12 months. That’s enough for a return economy class flight between Sydney and Tokyo (63,000 points plus fees and taxes) or a one-way business class flight between Melbourne and Denpasar, Indonesia (57,000 points plus fees and taxes).

Pros

  • Up to 80,000 bonus Qantas Points
  • Up to 2 Qantas Points per $1 spent
  • Balance transfer offer of 0% p.a. for 12 months
  • Discounted $349 first-year annual fee

Cons

  • Charges a 2% balance transfer fee
  • The standard $399 annual fee is relatively high
  • Interest-free days won't apply if you’re carrying a balance transfer debt
  • Anything over $10,000 in a statement period earns a lower rate of 0.5 points per $1
