Eligible business spending

FAQs
Can I earn ANZ Business Rewards Points with an ANZ personal credit card?
No. ANZ Business Rewards Points can only be earned with an eligible ANZ Business Rewards Credit Card.
Can I transfer my ANZ Business Rewards Points to another person?
No. ANZ Business Rewards Points cannot be transferred to another person.
Do ANZ Business Rewards Points expire?
Business Reward Points must be used to claim a reward within 36 months of 31st December of the year in which they were earned. Rewards Points that remain unused after that period will be cancelled. Also, if you close your ANZ Business Rewards account by cancelling your points-earning credit card, any unused business Rewards Points must be used within 90 days of the closure date.
Is the ANZ Business Rewards program the same as the ANZ Rewards program?
No. ANZ Business Rewards Points are earned using ANZ Business Credit Cards. ANZ Rewards Points are earned using ANZ personal credit cards. They are separate points programs, and points earned in them cannot be merged into a single account. The main difference between the two programs is that ANZ Business Rewards Points can be earned on payments to the ATO, but ANZ Rewards Points cannot. As well, Qantas is added to the list of airline partners for ANZ Business Rewards only. The two programs have separate online rewards stores for points redemption purposes, although redemption rates are the same.
Is ANZ Business Rewards worth it?
Given that ANZ Business Rewards Credit Cards have both an annual card fee and an annual rewards program fee, whether or not the ANZ Business Rewards program is worth it for a business owner depends on their circumstances and spending patterns. Business owners should consider the cost of their ANZ business credit card and their spending habits when deciding whether to participate in the program.
Do remember, however, to factor in any other benefits that come with an ANZ Business Rewards Credit Card, which may include the sign up bonus points, waived annual fees, and domestic and international travel insurance.
