Gift card churn value

CommBank Smart Awards Credit Card Commbank

Ended — kept for reference

This page is my best effort to summarise the card's terms from the information I found. Read the bank's terms for full details, or contact the bank if you have questions.

I'd like to use my bonus for:

Can I get this?

This offer is advertised to the public. Bonus conditions and the bank’s approval requirements still apply.

Can I get this bonus if I have held a card before?

I have not checked the waiting period for this bonus.

See the waiting rules for every Australian bank →

What must I spend?

$6,000 within 120 days — about $1,500 per month.

Can I get the card?

The minimum credit limit is $3,000. This is the least the bank may let you borrow.

I do not have a minimum income for this card.

Meeting the bonus rules does not mean the bank will approve your application. The bank must assess and approve the card separately.

How long is this available?

I do not have an end date for this offer.

in Coles gift cards, $400 total, with 2,250 points remaining.

Should I keep it after the first year?

Keeping the card costs $228 each year ($19/month annualised) — the first year was $114.

There is no bonus in year two. The fee buys points on your spending, plus the card's perks.

Ongoing earn: 1.00x Commbank points per $1.

Keeping pays off only if the ongoing earn and benefits are worth $228/yr to you.

The maths behind churn value

$400 in Coles gift cards (83,750 of 86,000 Commbank points; 2,250 left over) − $114 card fee. Assumes you earn the bonus and pay in full; extra spend or interest changes the outcome.

This offer has ended. I keep this page so you can check the old terms.

What this calculation assumes
  • You make the required purchases and the bonus is paid.
  • You pay the balance in full — any interest changes the outcome.
  • The required spend is ordinary planned spending, not extra cost.
  • You close the card before the next annual fee, or you decide keeping it is worth that fee.
  • Gift card prices can change. I check them again at renewal time.
