Overall Rating

Make no mistake, this titanium card (literally) is a high-end, top-tier product that rewards you with abundant points, massive travel features and premium lifestyle extras.

Frequent travellers will also benefit from the 20% bonus Status Credits (the only credit card with this offer), premier lounge access and big savings on worldwide travel.

Editor’s Review: What I love about the Qantas Premier Titanium credit card

This card is a lot to unpack, but it’s worth it. I’ll break down the terms behind the limited-time bonus points first, then look at the other features and rewards.

Bonus Qantas points: You can earn an enormous 150,000 bonus Qantas Points when you spend $5000 on eligible purchases on your card in the first 3 months from approval. Points are credited to your account within 2 months of reaching the spending criteria.

Just note this offer isn’t available if you’ve held a Qantas Premier card within the last 12 months.

Collapsible with Arrow

Qantas says these purchases are not eligible for the bonus points and points per $1: Cash Advances, Balance Transfers, Special Promotions, BPAY payments, purchases of foreign currency and travellers cheques, transactions made in operating a business, payments to other Citi branded accounts, bank fees and charges such as interest and ATM charges, transactions made using Qantas Points and government related transactions. Government related transactions include transactions with government or semi government entities, or relating to services provided by or in connection with government (for example but not limited to transactions made at Australia Post, payments to the Australian Taxation Office, council rates, motor registries, tolls, parking stations and meters, fares on public transport, fines and court related costs).


How many Qantas Points can you earn?

This card rewards you differently depending on what you buy and where it’s from. You’ll earn:

  • 1.25 Qantas Points for every $1 you spend in Australia up to $12,500 per statement period, then 0.5 points thereafter.
  • 2 Qantas Points for every $1 you spend overseas, either online or in person.
  • 2 additional Qantas Points for every $1 you spend on Qantas Products, which are: flights booked directly through the Qantas website, Contact Centres and selected travel agents, purchases of Qantas Frequent Flyer and Qantas Club memberships, joining and annual fees, and purchases from Qantas Wine and Qantas Marketplace.

There are terms and conditions for earning rewards so it’s worth reading the PDS to make sure you’re getting the maximum amount.

You can also earn extra Qantas Points (even while you sleep):

20,000 points through the Qantas Wellbeing app
You and any additional cardholders could earn up to 20,000 Qantas Points in a year by completing daily, weekly and monthly challenges. These include everyday activities like walking, swimming and sleeping, and completing car safety checks. Points are credited to your account every 2 weeks.

Shopping with big brands through My Card Offers
You can earn bonus points when you shop with top Australian retailers via the Qantas Money app. Each week you’re emailed discounts and special offers as well.


Travel features

This is where the Qantas Premier Titanium shines. Here’s a rundown of the included travel perks:

20% bonus status credits: A benefit unique to this card is the 20% bonus Status Credits on eligible Qantas flights for you and all additional cardholders. You need to book and pay for the flight on your card using the Qantas website or the Qantas Premier Titanium concierge, and it must be a Qantas operated or advertised flight.

Additional terms: I did notice in the terms that this offer can’t be used to move you from Platinum to Platinum One Qantas Frequent Flyer membership nor can a Platinum One member use the status credits to retain the Platinum One membership status. Bonus Status Credits will also not contribute to Lifetime Status, Loyalty Bonuses, Platinum Bonus Reward, Platinum One Member additional benefits.

Lounge passes: Every year, you’ll get up to 4 complimentary single-entry lounge passes. A pass can be transferred to a companion travelling under the same booking.

2 passes will get you into the luxurious Qantas First Lounges in Sydney, Melbourne or Los Angeles. The other 2 are for the domestic Qantas Club lounges or Qantas-operated International Business lounges (not including the Tom Bradley Terminal in LA).

10% off Qantas flights: The 10% discount is available for two bookings per year for two people on all fare classes (international and domestic) on Qantas and QantasLink flights. It applies to the base fare and not other taxes and fees. The booking has to be made through the dedicated Qantas Premier Titanium Concierge service and paid in full to get the 10% discount.

6 months interest-free on eligible Qantas purchases: the interest-free period is automatically applied on your first purchase of a selected Qantas product within the first 6 months of the date your card was approved.

Products include Qantas gift cards, flights booked through the Qantas website, Contact Centres and selected travel agents, purchases of Qantas Frequent Flyer and Qantas Club memberships, joining and annual fees, and purchases from Qantas Marketplace.

Complimentary Qantas Wine membership: This card comes with a Qantas Wine Premium membership, which includes free delivery within Australia and a bonus 3 Qantas Points on purchases when you use your Qantas Frequent Flyer details. Qantas Wine offers wine, champagne, beer and spirits.

Other features and extras

Dedicated concierge service: Not only will your Qantas Premier Titanium concierge take care of big tasks like booking tickets, making reservations or organising accommodation, it’s how you can get 10% off your Qantas flights. You’ll find the dedicated concierge number on the back of your card or in the Qantas Money app.

0% p.a. on balance transfers: Available for new Qantas Premier Titanium customers only, for 6 months you’ll pay 0% p.a. on balance transfers made within 90 days of card approval. You can transfer up to 80% of your available credit limit. Once the 6 months is up, you’ll pay the cash advance rate on the remaining balance.


What’s not so great

This card is flush with features but that also means a lot of terms and conditions. You’ll need to check the PDS to make sure you’re getting what you expect before you make purchases, especially on discounts and status credits.

The annual fee is a big step up from a standard credit card, but that’s because it’s a top-tier card for high income earners. As always, you need to check you’ll earn more in benefits and rewards than you spend in fees.

If I had one gripe it’s that I’d have hoped to see more lounge passes available, but getting up to 4 each year is still twice as many than most credit cards offer.

Also note that the 44 days interest free won’t apply if you have an active balance transfer. You’ll pay the purchase rate on your account immediately.


Who suits the Qantas Premier Titanium credit card?

The Qantas Premier Titanium card is full of unique privileges and advantages that suit high-flyers and big spenders. It benefits those who fly with Qantas regularly and want to earn Qantas Points and boost their Status Credits.

It offers plenty of opportunities to save money on discounted fares, shopping and insurances, making it a good fit if you get a thrill out of maximising your funds.

The Titanium offers (not) a lot but delivers even less. The 10% savings on travel can be better achieved by simply looking for sales. You also get hit with a booking fee which takes back some of the savings. $12,500 maximum monthly spend for extra FF points....so why target people who earn over $200k - there should be no maximum. The extra status credits - they frequently get them wrong or don't award them without being chased up. Concierge - based in the Philippines, frequently poor line quality, some staff very good but also often get staff who do not completely comprehend the issue and cannot fix the problem without referral elsewhere, and promised return-calls may or may-not be returned. It's metal, but not like Centurian - this is a cheap sandwich of metal and plastic and nowadays you rarely use the card beyond a tap so if you were hoping to impress (it doesn't) you will be mostly out of luck. Access to lounges - most who get this card are already high FF status and therefore don't require the passes - and unlike other cards (eg Qantas Ultimate Amex) - you cannot transfer them to anyone else so they go unused. Insurance - Titanium is $5k max on car excess. Some hire cars have a higher excess than this so you aren't actually fully covered. Q Ultimate Amex is 20k for hire car which means you never have to take out additional insurance. $1,200/year plus $100 for additional card-holder - zero back in travel (beyond the discount). Q Ultimate Amex is $450/year and you get $450 travel credit. All in all, it looked like it offered something a bit different - perhaps a card with exceptional service that was widely accepted. In the end it is simply an overpriced way to get an additional 150k points. Suggestions for improvement: Move Concierge back to Australia, Remove booking fees on flights using concierge, make points accumulation unlimited per month, give some kind of credit for travel, raise the insurance coverage for Car Rental, make the Lounge Access transferable....that would be a start

    Hi Quinn, if you’re referring to being able to get the bonus points, there’s no spend per month requirement. You just need to make sure that you spend at least $5,000 of eligible purchases within the first 3 months from card approval. It can either be a one time spend or a staggered spend totalling $5,000.

Hi Roland, I have already sent you a question however I have more. I have just seen the Qantas Titanium Credit Card. Basically, I am wanting to transfer the balances of my credit card to a card that is going to give me high Qantas Points, I do like my AmEx however so many places do not accept it. I have a BOQ Specialist card however I am disappointed with the points I get in return, We are a high spender on our card. I am looking for a card to use for Personal Purchases, a card for Business Purposes and we have multiple companies. I do not want or need 3 of these cards as that is a lot of money in fees unless they would look at the fees for multiples. BOQ Fee is currently $450 however as stated the points are not great. It takes days to transfer money onto it however with Macquarie it is immediate. Not sure about Qantas. We are looking at travelling more with our family of 7. We are looking at a minimum of 2 overseas trips with the family and 1 or 2 without the kids. Our income is over $200k. I would love to know your thoughts on this.

    Hi Naomi, there are no points earning on balance transfer with any credit cards. The earn rate on this card is great. The Titanium though has capped points earning of $12,500 per statement period (domestic). Therefore if you spend over this you will not get any points. If you use Qantas regularly then this card is great. As long as you don't go over the spend cap. That really limits the card for bigger spenders. The $1200 annual fee is very high. Though if you use the card features such as flight discounts, then it can pay for itself.

My husband travels quite a bit domestically as a QF FF for business domestically and we also travel up to 3 times a year internationally and the odd domestic leisure trip. Is this new Qantas Titanium card more for leisure travel as was indicated in some of the review or could it work well for a mixture of business and leisure.
    Roland B Bleyer - CreditCard.com.au Founder

    12 July 2019
    Hi Kerry, this card should only earn points on personal spend. Though many cards still payout on business activity. The cap on spend to earn points hurts the card. With such a high annual fee you had hoped you would get more. Overall the earn rate is the highest and if you use the features/Qantas then this card delivers.
