I've received this card after applying via a referral link from an earlier offer, and would be thrilled if anyone would bestow a 40k bonus upon me by clicking here and applying via my referral link.
The 120,000 points you'll receive is the highest this card has been at in recent memory!
By using a referral from the forum, a middleman won't get a commission, but a friendly AFF'er will get a tiny bit closer to their next holiday.
If you apply by November 6, are approved, and haven't held an amex-issued amex in the last 18 months, and spend $4,500 in 3 months, you receive a whopping 120,000 points. In exchange for the $450 annual fee, you receive a $450 travel credit to spend on QF-coded flights, 2 lounge passes after QF spend, access to amex cashback offers, and more. (with Shop Small around the corner it's a good time to grab an Amex if you've been holding off for a good offer).
Some things to consider when applying for this card:

Some things to consider when applying for this card:
- Amex conducts a credit check after you finish page one of the application form - not after completing the whole form. So only start entering detail into the form if you intend to finish it!
- You can activate the two free Qantas Lounge passes, which are delivered to you digitally, with any spend over $1 with the 'Qantas Air Australia' merchant. Here is one very affordable way to do it that worked for me recently.
- Flights commencing overseas, shopping at the Qantas mall, Qantas Hotels, Rental Cars etc do not activate the lounge passes.
- The minimum credit limit is $3k - keep your application low if you're only in it for the bonus points and want to reduce the impact on your credit score!
- Finally, unless you absolutely must - hold off on applying for supplementary cardholders at first. Amex often send out offers to give you a bonus 5k points for adding them later - so if you're a little patient you may be rewarded!
