What’s not so great...
While it may be Bank of Melbourne’s most rewarding credit card, the Bank of Melbourne Amplify Signature Credit Card doesn’t offer the highest Qantas earn rate in town.

Is buying gift cards count towards the $6000 eligible purchase?
Hi Vuzilla, sure as long as they are not cash cards and used for general purchases then they should be eligible. Cards such as JB Hifi or Bunnings etc. Not cash gift cards that are basically a perpaid visa or mastercard.
Dear Sir,Please may I ask do you have to spend 4000$ in 2 months.... or 6000$ in three months.. to qualify for the frequent flyer points.How soon after you have spent the money will I receive thefrequent flyer points.thankyou.tim
Hi Tim, with the Amplify Signature credit card bonus points offer. You need to spend at least $6,000 on eligible purchases made with the card within 90 days of card approval. Its a much lower $2,000 on eligible purchases on an Amplify Platinum Qantas credit card to receive the points. The bonus points will be credited to your points balance within 12 weeks after the eligible spend criteria is met.
How do you get the 2 Qantas Lounge Passes per year. Do you have to apply for them or is it automatically sent to you. I have had an Amplify Signature credit card for several years an never have been prvided with these passes. ??
