August's Finder Score figures are in: We've crunched the numbers to find our 5 favourite frequent flyer credit card offers on the market right now.
Whatever your points program, we've got cards with massive bonus points offers, premium perks and high earn rates. If you use your points wisely (that means reward flights and upgrades) these cards should more than cover their higher annual fees.
1. Qantas American Express Ultimate Card
The Qantas American Express Ultimate Card has a Finder Score of 9.64.
This card gives you 90,000 bonus Qantas Points if you meet the spend conditions. And while the $450 annual fee is high, it's instantly offset by the $450 yearly travel credit. When you consider that the card pays for itself with the credit alone, the fact you can also earn 1.25 Qantas Points per dollar, plus the bonus points, makes this an excellent frequent flyer card.
2. ANZ Frequent Flyer Black Card
The ANZ Frequent Flyer Black has a Finder Score of 9.9.
If you hold this card for 12 months and spend $5,000 on eligible purchases for the first 3 months, you'll end up with a whopping 130,000 Qantas Points by the end of the year. The annual fee is on the higher side at $425, but you can also get $200 back if you meet the bonus points conditions. This a rewarding Qantas card for big spenders.
3. Qantas Premier Titanium
The Qantas Premier Titanium has a Finder Score of 9.76. This card is a points monster: 150,000 bonus Qantas Points, 20% bonus status credits and an earn rate of 1.25 points per dollar spent. In exchange you have to pay a $1,200 annual fee and earn at least $200,000 a year.
I can't afford this credit card. But if you can, it's very rewarding.
4. Westpac Altitude Velocity Black
The Westpac Altitude Velocity Black has a Finder Score of 9.62. This card is the strongest Velocity Points offer in our database right now. You can get 120,000 Velocity Points (although the final 30,000 come in the second year you hold the card). The annual fee is around the average at $370 and you can earn 0.75 Velocity Points per dollar spent.
5. Westpac Altitude Qantas Black
The Westpac Altitude Qantas Black has a Finder Score of 9.62. This is a great card because of the 120,000 bonus points. The fee is not too high at $370 but you only earn 0.75 Qantas Points per dollar spent. This card is really about earning those bonus points.
