How to apply

You can apply for the St.George Amplify Signature Credit Card online in around 10 minutes. Get started by checking that you meet the following eligibility criteria and have all the documents and details you will need for the application.

Eligibility criteria

  • New cardholder. To take advantage of the bonus point offer on this card, you must not currently hold an Amplify Platinum or Amplify Signature Credit Card from Bank of Melbourne, St.George or BankSA. You also must not have held any of these accounts within the past 24 months.
  • Residency. You must be an Australian citizen or permanent resident with a fixed address in Australia. If you're a temporary resident, you can apply if you have an acceptable visa with a minimum of 1 year before its expiry. Finder's guide to credit cards for temporary residents has more details on these requirements.

Card benefits

  • Up to 180,000 bonus Amplify Points. If you're a new Amplify cardholder, you can get 130,000 bonus Amplify Points when you spend at least $12,000 on eligible purchases in the first year, plus get another 50,000 points after your first eligible purchase in the second year. Note that these points transfer to Velocity at a rate of 2:1, so 180,000 Amplify points are worth 90,000 Velocity points.
  • Discounted first-year annual fee. Apply and get approved as a new cardholder to save with a $199 annual fee for the first year. If you're an existing St.George customer, you'll receive a $99 discount on the first-year annual fee. The annual fee will revert to $295 p.a. thereafter.

Rates & fees

  • Annual fee. This card charges a standard annual fee of $295 p.a.
  • Interest rates. The variable interest rate for purchases is 20.99% p.a., while the cash advance rate is 21.99% p.a.

Hi Jason,


St. George Amplify Rewards program offers flexibility as the points you earn never expire, giving you as much time as needed to build your balance. Hope this helps!

Hi Lauren,


While you won’t receive a policy, you will be covered with St George’s travel insurance if you meet the eligibility requirements (see here). You can obtain written confirmation of eligibility for cover for your overseas journey by applying online at: checkyourcover.com.au/stgeorge


Hope this helps!

Hi, It says 12000 to be spent in 12 months to get the rewards bonus points. what if the 12000 limit is spent before 12 months (say 6 months) when will the bonus reward points credited. Thanks in advance

Hi Abdul,


The terms and conditions state that once you meet the spend requirement, the bonus points will be credited within 90 days. Usually in practice, they are credited sooner – generally, in the statement month after you meet the criteria. For instance, if you get the the card in February and spend $12,000 by May, then in the June statement period, your bonus points are credited. Hope this helps!

Hi- what airlines/hotel groups can I use points?

Hi Lucia,


You can use the points on hotels in the Visa Luxury Hotel Collection. For airlines, you can transfer them to Velocity Points (Virgin) or KrisFlyer (Singapore Airlines). 2 Amplify Points equals 1 Velocity Point.


You could also transfer the points to Everyday Rewards, which would then let you transfer them to Qantas Points. But you would shrink your points significantly by doing so (3000 Amplify Points would become 2000 Everyday Rewards which would then become 1000 Qantas Points).
