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 12 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.

Offer ends on 30 April 2025. Note that these points transfer to Velocity at a rate of 2:1, so 150,000 Amplify points if worth 75,000 Velocity points.

Hi Amy,

I’m a velocity member. If I take up this offer – are the points transfer to velocity 1:1? Also, can a second card be issued and linked to the account?

Hi Jason,


The points transfer to Velocity 2:1. This means that the current bonus of up to 150,000 Amplify Points bonus is equivalent to 75,000 points when transferred to Velocity Frequent Flyer.


Yes, you can get an additional cardholder with a $0 fee.


Hope this helps!

Hi Natalie,

The airport lounge passes are provided through Priority Pass, which has an airport lounge search tool on its website. Finder’s guide to Priority Pass also has examples of lounges around the world. I hope this helps.

Can the points and all future points get transferred to Velocity frequency flyer ?

Does this card allow me and my wife access to international travel lounge at airports, at no extra cost?

Hi Gill,

You can choose to transfer St.George Amplify Points to your Velocity Frequent Flyer account at any time, as long as you have a minimum of 3,000 points available. You also get 2 complimentary Priority Pass lounge passes each year you have the card, which gives you access to more than 1,400+ participating airport lounges around the world. You can also pay for further visits each year, with the costs available through Priority Pass. I hope this helps.

Amplify credit card with the 150,000 bonus points? Can they be converted to qantas points?

Hi Amy,

You can choose between earning Amplify Points or Qantas Points with this card, but the number of points are different and there is a yearly Qantas Rewards fee. Check out Finder’s St.George Amplify Signature Qantas Card Review. And if you choose Amplify Points, you can transfer them to Velocity Frequent Flyer or Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer. I hope this helps.

Is there a minimum annual income for this card?

Hi Zeph,

There is no specific minimum income requirement listed for this card, but you need to earn a regular, Australian-taxable income that St.George can verify.


Keep in mind that income is only one of the factors used to assess credit card applications. Other key factors include your employment status, assets and savings, existing debt and regular expenses. I hope that helps.
