The latest bonus points deals from Qantas

We’ve got the latest Qantas deals here! For just one week, Qantas Frequent Flyer is giving members extra incentive to hold health insurance cover by handing out up to 150,000 Qantas Points and 50 bonus Status Credits on new eligible policies.

Plus, nab an extra 20,000 Qantas Points on car insurance. You’ll also earn a Qantas Point for every dollar spent on the premium and unlock full Qantas Points earning ability in the Qantas Wellbeing App.

Deal: Earn up to 150,000 Qantas Points with health insurance

Qantas Insurance is offering up to 150,000 bonus Qantas Points and 50 bonus Status Credits to anyone taking out a new Gold Hospital and Top Extras cover for a couple, single parent or family. Other policies may also earn some bonus points, but not as much.

Yes, the premiums for a top-level package will be quite high. It’s up to you to weigh up whether earning 150,000 Qantas Points in the first year (worth approximately $2,280 in our book) is worth taking out that cover for at least the first year (with a minimum of 60 days).

However, the 50 bonus Status Credits will be awarded after you take out any eligible policy (not necessarily top-level) before 30 November 2020.

Remember that Qantas Points earned this way could count for Points Club or Points Club Plus membership, unlocking many valuable perks. 120,000 Qantas Points could also be redeemed for numerous Business and First Class flights.

What are the catches with this offer?

There are three main points to be aware of:

• You must not have held a health insurance policy in the last 6 months with Qantas, nib, AAMI, Apia, GU Health or Suncorp, tr you won’t be eligible for any bonus sign-on points. This is because these insurers all share the same underwriter.
• You must hold the new Qantas Health Insurance policy for at least 60 continuous days to earn the applicable sign-on bonus. Once the points are successfully received, you are free to do whatever you wish with your health cover without losing the sign-on points.
• Only the top Hospital and Extras cover combined will net the maximum 150,000 Qantas Points.
