Many Point Hacks readers are already Qantas Frequent Flyer members. But in case you (or your interested friends and family) are not, this post covers one of Qantas’ more antiquated policies – a joining fee for frequent flyer membership.
Qantas usually charges a $99.50 joining fee per person for Australian residents. But you can save that money by simply clicking through one of the free links below! Most overseas residents can also get it free, with New Zealand residents charged NZ$60.
Are you a Qantas Frequent Flyer member already? Then these codes are useful for signing up friends and family when needed.
Qantas runs promotions for free memberships with their frequent flyer program partners, including banks and other program partners. So it’s possible to find a range of promotional application codes, as these links follow a common format.

6 ways to join Qantas Frequent Flyer for free
Just click on any of the links below to join. You don’t actually need to make a purchase or be involved with any of the partners below to benefit from their code.
1. Qantas credit cards
If you want to sign up for a Qantas Points-earning credit card, such as the Qantas Premier Platinum, then frequent flyer membership will be offered for free.
2. Join your family for free
This is a special code advertised by Qantas Frequent Flyer itself, offering free membership to the family of their frequent flyer members.
3. Qantas Joey Club
Budding young Qantas Frequent Flyers can sign-up through the Joey Club program, which provides activities and resources for kids when they are travelling.
4. Red Energy
You could pocket up to 15,000 Qantas Points on sign-up and earn two Qantas Points per $1 spent on ongoing bills.
5. Everyday Rewards
As Qantas’ major supermarket partner, earn 1 Everyday Rewards point per $1 spent at supermarkets, then swap them to Qantas Points at a rate of 2,000 to 1,000. Read more here.
6. Qantas Money
If you’re not a Qantas Frequent Flyer member, then get the Qantas Travel Money card – which also serves as your frequent flyer membership card! You’ll earn 1.5 Qantas Points per $1 spent overseas. Read more here.
If any of these codes expire, just use a different one on the list. You don’t have to be a member or customer of any of those businesses to use the Qantas free sign-up codes. There’s no end difference overall.
To become a Qantas Business Rewards member, you’ll need an ABN. You can join that (separate) program for free here.

I can confirm Deliveroo Link still works
Even if you do, unless you get status with BA, you won’t need anything in the mail from them.
Friends/family would be simplest and just ask them to chuck the mail.
The only issue you might encounter is if you ever make a booking with BA when logged into your account, e.g. if using Avios. Then you would probably want a legitimate address of a close family member in play.
It’s a stupid restriction now the Qantas / BA join venture has been dissolved.
