Gift card churn value

Qantas Premier Platinum (No Qantas Points Credit Card for previous 24 months)

Churn value: $51 in gift cards.

You pay $349 in first-year fees.Spend $5,000 in 90 days.You get $400 in Woolworths gift cards.

The recorded minimum requirements are that you earn at least $35,000 a year and can take a credit limit of at least $6,000. Meeting them does not guarantee approval.

It is only worth it if you pay in full each month and close the card before the next $399 fee.

What is churn value?

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?

This offer has no waiting period. New Qantas Money Platinum credit cardholders only.

See the waiting rules for every Australian bank →

What must I spend?

$5,000 within 90 days — about $1,667 per month.

Can I get the card?

The minimum credit limit is $6,000. This is the least the bank may let you borrow.

You must earn at least $35,000 a year.

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 Woolworths gift cards, $400 total, with 2,130 points remaining.

What do I do, step by step?

  1. Apply. Check the income and waiting rules in “Can I get this?” first. If you do not pass those, the bonus does not come.
  2. Spend $5,000 in 90 days on bills and shopping you had to pay anyway. Do not buy extra things just to hit the number.
  3. Pay in full each month. Interest can eat the whole bonus. The churn value at the top assumes you never pay interest.
  4. Use the points for gift cards. Points you never use are worth zero.
  5. Close the card before the next fee — keeping it costs $399 a year. The next section helps you decide if keeping it is worth it.

When this is not worth it

  • You pay interest, or you cannot pay in full each month.
  • You buy things you do not need to hit the spend target.
  • You have no trip or use in mind for the points.
  • You keep the card into year two out of habit and pay the fee again.

Should I keep it after the first year?

Keeping the card costs $399 each year ($399 annual fee) — the first year was $349.

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

Ongoing earn: 1.00x Qantas points per $1.

Keeping pays off only if the ongoing earn and benefits are worth $399/yr to you.

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.
