CommBank offering up to 120,000 bonus awards points for new credit card holders

If you’ve been on the hunt for a new rewards credit card, but haven’t quite found the one with an added cherry on top, then now is the time.
CommBank has just launched limited time bonus point offers on a bunch of its credit cards, including up to 120,000 bonus awards points up for grabs for new Diamond Awards Card applicants, as long you apply by 31 July and spend $6,000 on your new card by 31 October 2019.
Among other great offers, you’ll also get $200 cashback on a selection of the cards, when you apply by 31 July and spend $500 on your new card by 31 October 2019.
The collection of offers applies to 6 of CommBank’s range of credit cards and as most bonus points offers go, all have spend requirements that must be met in order to be eligible.

According to Mozo Director Kirsty Lamont, Aussies looking to apply for new credit cards should always do their research to make sure they have a clear grasp on what’s being offered and whether it stacks up to what else is out there.
“Bonus rewards points can be a great perk, but with so many banks tempting new Aussie credit card customers into their ranks, it’s important to weigh up whether you’ll meet their criteria and if the reward adds enough value to your spending,” she said.
Mozo’s done the math and found that 120,000 bonus points could score you up to 7 free flights between Sydney and Melbourne, or close to $600 in gift cards.
