Business Credit Cards

A business credit card that earns Qantas Points is one that’s intended for the use of a business, not for an individual’s personal use. This means you’ll need an Australian Business Number (ABN) to apply. They can be useful for any sized  business, by helping to track business spend. Perhaps you are a sole trader or you have a small business with a handful of employees. There are several types of business credit cards, including ones that earn you Qantas Points.

What makes a business credit card that earns Qantas Points different?

This type of credit card will earn your business and in some instances the individual Frequent Flyer member Qantas Points on your card spend. Depending on which you choose, some credit cards even have bonus points offers (meaning a boost to your business’ points balance) or complimentary Qantas Business Rewards membership.

 

What is the best credit card for small businesses?

While there’s no 'best' credit card for small business, the credit card that is best for your business will be the one that fits in with your existing business spending. This means you'll need to look at a range of factors, such as:

  • Purchases that are eligible to earn you Qantas Points
  • Capital expenses
  • Do you have additional staff that need credit cards
  • What are your business travel payment needs
  • Will an interest free period create additional savings for your business
  • Additional benefits
  • Cash flow management.

Some credit cards also link with accounting software which can help with financial reconciliations at tax time.

You can then match the types of transactions you make with the credit card features. For example, if your business uses a credit card for flights and regularly pays it off, a credit card that earns Qantas Points might offer competitive value. On the other hand, if your business relies on the credit card for credit, interest-free days, a low rate or low fee a business credit card might be the best option.

Qantas Points for the Qantas Business Rewards cardholder, and rewards for your business

With Qantas Business Rewards, you can earn points on your business expenses on top of the Qantas Points earned through the credit card spend. So, if you’re a sole trader or owner of the business you’ll be earning twice. Or, if the credit card is used by your employees, the business will earn points as well as the cardholder.  Once you’ve saved up some Qantas Points into your Qantas Business Rewards account, you can choose whether to transfer them to your personal Frequent Flyer account, or to use them to reward your staff. Take a look at Qantas Business Rewards to see all the ways you can earn points for your business.

Business credit cards for travel

If your business becomes a Qantas Business Rewards member, you or your employee’s feet don’t need to leave the ground to earn Qantas Points. However, if you or your employees need to travel for business, you could earn even more benefits associated with travel. As well as the Qantas Points and Status Credits earned on eligible flights, the business will also earn Qantas Points and a flight discount based on the amount of Qantas Points you earn in a year.

Business credit cards and foreign transaction fees
There are many business credit cards offering 0% foreign transaction fees, but there are other important things to keep in mind:

  • Annual fees. Although many credit cards have annual fees, you can potentially save money spent on those fees by paying 0% in foreign transaction fees. 

  • Overseas ATM withdrawal fees. It's important to remember that things can work differently in other countries, especially when it comes to ATM charges. These can attract a fee from the ATM provider worth at least $3 or between 2-4% of the total transaction, so make sure you budget accordingly and do your research. 

  • Purchase rate. Being money smart and paying your credit card balance by the due date on each statement will ensure that your overseas spending won't attract interest at the credit card's standard rate - a rate which could reduce the value you get from having no foreign transaction fees.

  • Other travel benefits. Some credit cards offer additional perks, such as complimentary travel insurance, airport lounge access or Qantas Points for your eligible spending. Be sure to check what you need to do to activate these perks so you get maximum value out of your credit card e.g. paying for your airfares on the credit card offering the reward.
