40,000 Qantas Points up for grabs with new Qantas Home Insurance

Qantas Insurance has today announced that it will be expanding its product portfolio with Qantas Home Insurance. And yes you guessed it, there are Qantas Points on the table with this new offering. As much as 40,000 to be precise.

How do I earn points with Qantas Home Insurance?

First thing’s first: to earn any Qantas Points, you must be a Qantas Frequent Flyer member. Then to earn the bonus points on offer, you will have to sign up to the policy before 28 February, 2021. How many you are awarded will depend on your annual premium with 40,000 being the maximum. The premium tiers are as follows:

• $0 to $500 - 4,000 Qantas Points
• $500 to $850 - 10,000 Qantas Points
• $850 to $1,250 - 20,000 Qantas Points
• $1,250 to $1,550 - 30,000 Qantas Points
• $1,550 plus - 40,000 Qantas Points

Home safety checks equal points

You can also earn up to 1,600 Qantas Points per year, via the Qantas Wellbeing app. The best bit being that to earn these points you have to make sure your home is safe - it’s a win win!

You’ll need to do two home safety checks, five smoke alarm checks and you will have to reach your sleep goal, six out of every ten days. 

Qantas loyalty chief executive, Olivia Wirth said of the scheme, “In the same way that we’ve rewarded our health insurance customers for exercising and car insurance customers for checking tyres, home insurance customers will be able to earn points by doing some basic household safety tasks.”

What type of home insurance does Qantas offer?

That’s enough about the reward points, let’s get into the details of what home insurance Qantas actually offers. The policies that fall under Qantas’ home insurance umbrella are:

• Home and contents insurance bundled together 
• Home building insurance
• Contents insurance
• Landlord insurance
• Renters insurance

Some features of Qantas’s home insurance include up to $20 million legal liability, temporary accommodation cover, modifications to your home, debris removal and extra rebuilding costs (with home building insurance) and guaranteed repairs.
