The ANZ Rewards Platinum Credit Card
Tantalising new cardholders with its incredibly appealing introductory offer, the ANZ Rewards Platinum Credit Card is a platinum rewards card with plenty of benefits. New cardholders can take advantage of complimentary insurances, a Platinum Concierge service, a pretty decent earn rate on the ANZ Rewards program, plus a $0 first year annual fee and 120,000 bonus Reward Points to your new ANZ Rewards Platinum credit card.
What we love...
When it comes to introductory offers, they need to be enticing or there’s really not much point. Happily, the intro offer on the ANZ Rewards Platinum Credit Card is very enticing indeed, providing new cardholders with 120,000 bonus Reward Points to your new ANZ Rewards Platinum. All you need to do is be approved, obviously, and spend $1,500 on eligible purchases in the first 3 months. The annual fee is also waived for the first year.
While you should check the terms and conditions, most purchases count as ‘eligible’ apart from fees, cash withdrawals, and gambling and gaming transactions. The bonus Reward Points and credit will be credited to your ANZ account within 3 months of the eligible spend criteria being met.
Now to the everyday. As this is a platinum rewards card, you can expect a higher earn rate than the standard ANZ Rewards Card. This means you can earn 1.5 Reward Points per $1 spent up to $2,000 per statement period, and 0.5 Reward Points per $1 thereafter.
In terms of point redemption, the ANZ Rewards program offers a wide range of gift cards, merchandise, travel and more, with plenty of options to choose from.
Of course, you need to consider how much you pay out on the card to work out whether it’s actually worth it. Fortunately, the ANZ Rewards Platinum Credit Card has a relatively low ongoing annual fee for a platinum rewards card plus, it currently offers no annual fee for the first year. You can choose to add up to nine additional cardholders to the account to help you earn points faster, but be aware an annual fee applies for each cardholder.
What’s not so great...
As is so often the case with platinum rewards cards, the ANZ Rewards Platinum Credit Card does not fall into the category of ‘low rate’. However, you can avoid paying interest, simply by shunning cash advances and clearing your balance each statement period. Apart from that, there’s really not much to complain about with this card.
Why should you choose this card?
If you’re looking for an affordable platinum rewards card, the ANZ Rewards Platinum Credit Card may well be a winner. For a relatively low ongoing annual fee, you can benefit from its awesome introductory offer and rewards program, plus a great range of features. These include a 24/7 Personal Concierge, access to Visa Entertainment, and a full suite of insurance covers.
- International Travel Insurance for up to 6 months
- Interstate Flight Inconvenience Insurance
- Rental Vehicle Excess In Australia Insurance
- Extended Warranty Insurance
- Guaranteed Pricing Scheme

Overall Rating
A particularly rewarding platinum rewards card, the ANZ Rewards Platinum Credit Card offers a good earn rate on the ANZ Rewards program, a great selection of features, 120,000 bonus Reward Points and all for a nice no annual fee offer in the first year.

Hi, I am after business credit card which offer virgin velocity points. Is there a recommended one I will need at least 8 to 9 cards upto 5k limit on each prefer with annual fee is reasonable or some offers going on Thankyou
Hi Kamla, thank you for your question. Whilst we are not able to recommend one card over another, there are several cards to choose from (e.g. American Express Velocity Business Charge Card which is a business card that earns velocity points, and Virgin Australia Velocity Flyer that also earns velocity points). We suggest heading over to the list of Business credit cards and Velocity credit cards we created, and reviewing your card options.
Can you cancel this credit card anytime?
Hi, thanks for your question! For information on cancelling cards, you should deal with the bank directly. Thanks!
Can the Rewards Points for ANZ Rewards Platinum Card be converted into Qantas points, if so is it 1 to 1 conversion
Hi Cecilia, no, ANZ Reward Points do not convert to Qantas. They normally convert to Velocity (at a rate of 2:1) but redemption was suspended at the start of Covid and has not resumed. They also convert to Airpoints, KrisFlyer Miles and Asia Miles. I hope that helps.
Is there a minimum income required for this card?
Hi Jana, ANZ does not list a minimum income requirement for this card. Your income and assets will be weighed against your expenses & liabilities and that will help determine your eligibility. You will need to be able to service at least the minimum credit limit of $6,000. I hope that helps.
