No other card programme comes close to offering the fantastic range of travel, lifestyle and shopping rewards available from Membership Rewards®.
Enrol in Membership Rewards for an annual fee of $501 and you will earn 1 Membership Rewards point for every $1 you spend on your Card. You can then redeem points towards a fantastic range of rewards.
Unlike many other rewards programmes, Membership Rewards points do not expire provided your Account remains in good standing. So you can accumulate points and redeem them as and when you're ready.
Maximising Points
The best way to maximise the points you earn is by using your American Express® Card as often as you can.
- Use your Card in the same way as you would cash or an EFTPOS card. You will earn Membership Rewards points while using your Card for everyday purchases such as groceries, petrol and dining out.
- Set up your Card Account to pay your monthly household bills. This way the bill is always paid and you earn Membership Rewards points.
- Give family members a Supplementary Card so they can also enjoy the benefits of Card membership while you earn Membership Rewards points on all their purchases.
- If you have more than one eligible American Express Card Account these will be linked into one Membership Rewards Account.
Earn 2 points for every $1 you spend on your Card by enrolling in Membership Rewards with Turbo™.
Give points a boost just by shopping at our fantastic range of Bonus Partners.
