Hello AFF,

Recently changed job and have been offered the ability to expense every month, up to $150 for mobile phone+plan.
Having a peek around, can see there's no longer an Optus Qantas partnership, and can't seem to surface any equivalent for Velocity.

Any ideas on how to get cashback, or get something back as points in some regard for whatever partnership?

Absent any direct partnerships, if you are looking for a phone for 'frequent flyers', I would say pick an iPhone, due to the better (I believe) ecosystem of apps - the superlative Flighty, plus Apple Airtags (better coverage than new, Android version). I'm sure Android users will disagree, but I run PCs coupled with an iPhone very happily (ie I'm not an Apple/Mac fan necessarilty).
