How Australia’s New Card Surcharge Rules Could Affect Points Earners

 

Credit card surcharges are being scrapped in Australia, but what does that mean for frequent flyer points? In this episode, Toby Venus and Wilson McTaggart break down the RBA’s changes to surcharges and interchange fees, why they matter, and how they could affect sign-up bonuses, earn rates, annual fees and travel perks on popular rewards cards.

They also look at why business credit cards may hold up better than personal cards, what this could mean for Qantas and Velocity, and how points collectors can adapt. This episode is general information only and is not financial advice.
