Qantas Business Rewards
The Qantas Business Rewards program enables you to earn rewards points1 on business expenses paid for on your BusinessChoice Rewards Platinum Visa.

All businesses with an ABN are eligible to join. Qantas Points are credited to the ABN holder's Qantas Members’ Business Rewards account within 60 days of the first eligible purchase or card account has been linked to the BusinessChoice Rewards Platinum Visa facility.
The Westpac BusinessChoice Qantas Business Rewards Terms and Conditions (PDF 115KB) will detail how and when Qantas Points will be earned on card purchases and how points will be credited to the business' Qantas Business Rewards membership.
