Bankwest Qantas Transaction account [being withdrawn in 2025]

Running tens of thousands of 1c Telstra payments through this account years ago is still my all time favourite points earn. Good times!

The Qudos Qantas Points Saver is far superior. The interest rate alone is a very credible 4.05%.

They were special times. Still remember my morning script run with coffee. Possibly only beaten by BW accidentally doubling everyone’s points rather than clawing them back. Good times!

Sure I'll just take a day off work

Actually all the details are found on page 1. Think I may take advantage of this for the 10k points though not sure I can be bothered with the small transaction thing this time. For a start the tool I used to automate no longer works

Looks like this account is now in its last days:

Qantas Transaction Account & Qantas debit card | Bankwest

The Bankwest Qantas Transaction Account rewards you with Qantas Points for your everyday banking. Apply online today.

The Qantas Transaction Account will be withdrawn from sale from approximately 15 May 2025. Bankwest will commence migrating existing customers to the Easy Transaction Account from approximately 1 September 2025. Qantas Points are not earned on the Easy Transaction Account.

I've noticed that AMP has now announced a new transaction account that earns Qantas points, don't know if the end of the Bankwest account and the creation of the AMP product are linked.

The Bankwest Easy Transaction account also doesn’t have foreign exchange fees.
