Qantas Loyalty Gift 2025: The Facts

What the Heck Is This?

In addition to the double status/points deal Qantas is giving loyal members free status credits/points!

Qantas is giving Frequent Flyers two types of freebies in September 2025:

  1. A Points gift for Points Club or Points Club Plus members.
  2. A Status Credits gift for those with elite flying status (Silver, Gold, Platinum, or Platinum One).

Both should hit accounts by 30 September 2025. No sign-up needed—Qantas handles it for you. Qantas

Who Gets Stuff — And How Much?

  • Points Club Plus members get 5,000 Qantas Points.
  • Points Club members (base tier) receive 2,500 Qantas Points.
  • If you’re both a Points Club member and have elite status, you get both the Points gift and the Status Credits gift. Qantas

Where’s It Show Up?

Look for a transaction labeled “Thank you for your loyalty” in your Activity statement on the Qantas app or website, by 30 September. Qantas

Status Credits Info

  • Gifted Status Credits will appear the same way — look for that “Thank you for your loyalty” line in your My Account or app. Qantas
  • They’re valid only until the end of your current membership year — no rollover, no extra life. Qantas

Usefulness? Let’s Not Kid Around…

  • Points gifts count toward Points Club progression and any related milestones. If you’re trying to climb the tiers there, it’s a mild assist. Qantas
  • Status Credits gifts count toward annual tier status maintenance or upgrades (Silver → Gold → Platinum, etc.) — but they don’t count toward Lifetime status, Loyalty Bonus, or Platinum Bonus rewards. Qantas

The Bottom Line — Is It Worth It?

Yes, if you’re active in the program. It’s genuinely free value. But let’s be honest: it’s a small gesture, not a game-changer. If you’re hover­ing near a tier threshold, those bonus credits could tip you up. Otherwise, it’s more of a “nice” than “wow.”
