Mozo snapshot

There’s a special sort of satisfaction in making a purchase with plastic and knowing that you’re racking up points towards a reward. BankSA Amplify Signature is a rewards credit card that lets you start off your points earning strong, with bonus points offers on both its Amplify Rewards and Qantas Frequent Flyer options. On top of the rewards earned through points, the card comes with perks like free extended warranty, fraud protection and travel insurance.

It also won a 2022 Mozo Experts Choice Award for best Amplify Rewards Signature.

Key features

Have you ever thought to yourself, 'I wish there was a way to snag some great perks and rewards while I spend?' Well, good news - BankSA’s Amplify Signature comes with a bunch of great extras, and some serious points earning power.

You’ll be given the option to choose between two rewards programs when it comes to everyday points earning. The first is Amplify Rewards, which offers 1.5 points per $1 spent, letting you earn rewards that little bit easier. The second is Qantas Frequent Flyer, which lets you funnel all your points directly into your Frequent Flyer Account. While you’ll only earn 0.75 points per $1 spent* towards the BankSA rewards, you’ll earn double points when you spend with Qantas Frequent Flyer Program partners.

Plus, if you opt for the Qantas Frequent Flyer program instead, if you spend $6,000 on eligible purchases in the first 90 days from approval you'll earn yourself 90,000 bonus Qantas points. That could get you a one way ticket to Europe, or more than a few domestic flights! Just remember that this offer expires on 30th April 2024, so you'll need to be quick!

On the other hand, if you choose the Amplify Rewards option and spend $12,000 on eligible purchases in the first year you can score a whopping 150,000 Amplify bonus points.

The BankSA Amplify Signature credit card also comes with a bunch of perks, like 2 yearly Priority Passes to airport lounges, complimentary travel insurance, extended warranty on purchase and a bunch of other travel and retail perks.

Just keep in mind that this card does come with a fairly steep $279 annual card fee but this fee is reduced to $199 in the first year. There is also a 19.49% interest rate on purchases.

*From 1 January 2022, earn 0.75 Qantas Points per $1 up to a maximum of $250,000 spent on eligible purchases annually. Bonus Qantas Points not included in the cap.

Who is it good for

Anyone who’s looking to snag some top rewards for all their credit card spending is suited for the Amplify Signature, and travellers wanting their points to go directly to their Qantas Frequent Flyer membership can also seriously consider it.

Any catches

There’s no real ‘gotcha’ catch with this card, it’s just worth taking note of the $279 annual card fee. You also won't want to leave a large balance on this card, with the 19.49% p.a. purchase rate.
