BONUS5000

Recently found out Sniip has partnered with Qantas FF (earn 1 QF per $10 spend or .1 QF/$1) and has a promotion offer for new members.

For a limited time, here’s how to pocket 5,000 bonus Qantas Points with Sniip* in a few simple steps:

  1. Download the Sniip app

Background:

I use Sniip to to use my personal AMEX to pay for my rent and for bills that charge more than 1.29% for AMEX (and doesn't accept Paypal or AusPost bill pay).

Is the fee worth it?
Depends on YOUR credit card program and how YOU value it. Here is Point Hacks current points valuation table.

From the Sniip App:

    Damn! Just paid a $400 water bill 3 days ago!! And hard to use mastercard coz Amex not accepted!
    T&Cs don't seem to have an end date, so may want to time this for when bills are due..

      It’s for new users though.

        Yeh, i don't use sniip.. bill was due 3 days ago

        • donman92 on 02/04/2025 - 13:51

          Same, I normally use B2Bpay so I'm glad I can take advantage of this.

  • Dyl on 02/04/2025 - 11:52

    T&Cs say no Qantas points (usually 10/$1) on bsb payments. It says for the promo 'eligible transaction types as detailed above', unclear if BSB is eligible or not. May have to pay a fee. Even $12.90 is worth it for 5,000 pts though.

    • ATangk on 03/04/2025 - 00:10
      +2

      Sorry, I commented the wrong thing earlier.

      Eligible Payment Methods that earn Qantas Points are any payments made with a valid Australian-issued Visa or Mastercard debit or credit card, American Express card or international/overseas issued debit and credit cards. Payments made via bank account, prepaid cards and Crypto.com cards are not eligible.

      So it must be something that charges a fee.

      • primegrizzlybear on 03/04/2025 - 02:17
        +1

        Yes, in the T&Cs there are two things Eligible Bill type and Eligible Payment type.

        Payments to BSB are fine, but not via bank transfer

        Looks like minimum fee 0.65% or $6.5 fee for 5000 QFF

        • ATangk on 03/04/2025 - 13:28

          At this point you can pay yourself $1000 via BSB and pay $6.5 for 5000 points.

          • Brick50 on 06/04/2025 - 10:01

            @ATangk: Anyone confirm they sent themselves $1000 and received the points?

            • pennypacker42069 on 04/05/2025 - 18:31

              @Brick50: The Sniip terms forbid sending money to yourself so I would be careful doing this

  • kcool_00 on 02/04/2025 - 12:33

    good find OP. Totally worth it even with processing fees. Extra QFF points are hard to get, since woolies don't have any points offer on buying Visa/Mastercard Gift cards.

  • Tangenyahu on 02/04/2025 - 12:34

    Presumably I can do three separate Bpay payments equaling $1k for Superannuation contributions and this will count?

    • adrianhughes1998 on 02/04/2025 - 12:36

      Good question, I'm also wondering if paying rent to DEFT account is eligible too…

      • Tony-Abbott on 02/04/2025 - 14:56
        +1

        It's all eligible.

      • UnrealMacaw on 03/04/2025 - 13:41

        But DEFT and Amex doesn't work, right? According to their faq?

        • adrianhughes1998 on 03/04/2025 - 13:54

          Where does it say that? I just checked and BPay payment for rent goes to the DEFT BPay biller code …..

          • UnrealMacaw on 03/04/2025 - 17:23

            @adrianhughes1998: I enter bpay code and it says this biller does not accept this payment method.

            In faq's: Why can't I pay DEFT with my Amex through Sniip?… Then a long answer about both being third party systems

            Would love a workaround if you know one!

    • tabboy on 02/04/2025 - 15:03

      Let me know if this works…

    So specifically only 3 bills, and it must be over $1000 with all 3 bills?

    • dsar on 02/04/2025 - 13:34

      No, just 3 bills with the total cost totalling $1000 or more.

      In the options menu at the top left

      • candobetter on 02/04/2025 - 20:25

    Don't be like me. I signed up without the promo code because the keyboard on my screen was blocking it.
    Realised my error, deleted my account and started again.
    This breached the terms of the promo as I was no longer a 'New User'.

    Currently chatting with support to see if they can resolve it.

    • starcub on 02/04/2025 - 15:47

      No, as it says 3 seperate bills.

      • Uncle Roger on 02/04/2025 - 13:34

        Does this mean that the 3rd bill has to be the one that brings total of all 3 over $1K?

        • dsar on 02/04/2025 - 13:35
          +1

          No it doesn’t have the one that brings it over. It just need to be 3 separate bills paid totalling over $1000.

  • FutureTech on 02/04/2025 - 13:35

    Also if you are running your own business or are paying investment related bills (eg on your investment property), consult your accountant to find out whether the fees are deductible for tax.

        Qantas Frequent Flyer Devaluation: Higher Award Costs, With A Silver Lining

        As of October 2025, Qantas Frequent Flyer will increase the number of partner award options that members have access to, with up to one million extra international Classic Reward seats annually. Specifically, we’ll see the introduction of premium economy awards on Air France, Finnair, Iberia, and KLM, as previously that cabin wasn’t bookable on those partners with Qantas Frequent Flyer points.

        We’ll also see Qantas Frequent Flyer members get access to Classic Reward seats on Hawaiian, unlocking more opportunities to travel to and from Hawaii.

        • Bargain-er on 03/04/2025 - 10:11

          Hah, thanks… As guessed lol

        • donman92 on 03/04/2025 - 11:00

          Yea in aware of the 20% points cost increase for international flights. It sucks. But I'll still try to use up some points before the increase is in effect.

          • UrMumsOnlyFan on 03/04/2025 - 23:22
            +1

            @donman92: I actually misread your post and saw only "Qantas points", not "Qantas points club". So I had assumed you were after points in a rush due to additional partner airline award seats becoming available in October as per the quoted article.

            But Points Club is a different matter and I would presume the October rush has to do with your deadline for reaching the 150,000 qualifying requirement, rather than the partner award availability being added in October.

            20% points cost increase for international flights.

            The points cost for upgrades and for domestic flights will also be increasing by up to ~20%.

            Perhaps most importantly, the $$$ cash payment will increase on business and first class reward seats - in many cases doubling or even more.

            On routes between Australia and Vancouver, Dallas, New York and Santiago, for example, the carrier charges on a return Business Class booking will increase from $430 to $1,050.

            Then again, that's assuming you can find a business or first class reward seat in the first place :)

            • donman92 on 04/04/2025 - 00:01

              @UrMumsOnlyFan: Sad times ahead for me after all those points but I'm not surprised; cost of living has doubled therefore points are easier to accumulate.

              • UrMumsOnlyFan on 04/04/2025 - 00:53

                @donman92: Sad times indeed. I don't mind (too much) the points cost increasing, but the $$$ cash payment doubling or more on business/first reward seats is BS.

            • HappyPants on 04/04/2025 - 07:30

              @UrMumsOnlyFan: So true. QFF points have never been so easy to accumulate, but never been so hard to spend, on flights anyway. Almost impossible to find a business class seat to anywhere, even 330 days in advance, and if you are travelling as a couple, you're in real trouble. Qantas are just big fat greedy meanies these days.

              • UrMumsOnlyFan on 05/04/2025 - 14:24

                @HappyPants:

                QFF points have never been so easy to accumulate

                While points from everyday spend may be up due to cost of living, it has never been a worse time in terms of credit card churning (lower bonus offers, greater likelihood of rejection, much longer exclusion periods between reapplying, etc). I am very pessimistic about what the future holds in that regard.

                Almost impossible to find a business class seat to anywhere, even 330 days in advance

                Note that looking in advance is almost meaningless these days (except perhaps for a minority of certain routes). See Reward Seat Release Patterns Have Changed Fundamentally from 2023.

                Random batch availability is the new normal for QFF unfortunately.

  • rockinrors on 02/04/2025 - 14:58

    Does it work out better value to use this than just paying directly by credit card with the fees etc?

  • CodeXD on 02/04/2025 - 15:08

    Does this mean we can double dip on points? E.g. use a credit card that can generate QFF points. So we'll get 5k bonus points from sniip + $1k worth of transaction from credit card.

  • amaneight on 02/04/2025 - 15:22
    +1

    Since BPAY and reference number stays same in all the bills, just pay extra to your utilities company and they’ll add it as a credit against your next bill

    Sniip doesn’t have a way to know if your bill is due and how much is due.

      you can pay rent using sniip's pay to bsb account number feature.

      or you can go to deft's website and pay using your amex for a 1.5% fee

      • UnrealMacaw on 03/04/2025 - 17:26

        Keen on opinions - would you cop 1.5% Amex fee for 2.25/$ Amex points?

        • dsar on 03/04/2025 - 18:05
          +1

          Yes, the worse case for points is using the Amex points as points for credit. At 2.25 MR points this would equal to 1.125c. That means at worse case you should be accepting a 1.125% surcharge.

          When you factor in that It’s not that hard to get 3c per airline point (or 2 membership reward points) easily justifiable

  • vwka on 03/04/2025 - 13:56
