Travel benefits

ANZ Platinum is your ideal travelling companion and comes with many built-in travel benefits.

Please note that some of these features are applicable to ANZ Platinum only and are not applicable to ANZ Frequent Flyer Platinum and ANZ Rewards Platinum.

You could plan and pay for your travel in a way that suits you1.

With ANZ Platinum, you have more choice with flexible payment options1 available for travel-related purchases made using your ANZ Platinum account. So you can request the option that best suits your financial circumstances. For travel-related purchases made using your ANZ Platinum with airlines, hotels, travel agents or online travel booking agents over $500 in a single transaction on or after October 23rd 2010 (“qualifying transaction”). Once your qualifying transaction has processed to your account (usually 48 hours from the date you made the transaction) you can call us on 13 22 73 and request to switch these purchases to a flexible payment option.

Each option works differently to help you manage your finances.

Option 1

Discounted Interest Rate1

Enjoy a discounted purchases interest rate of 9.99%p.a. for 6 months, starting from the date ANZ processes your request, on your travel-related purchases over $500, which are transferred.

Option 2

Instalment Plan1

Choose how long you want to take to repay your travel-related purchases over $500 and repay them in set monthly instalments over 6, 12 or 18 months at a discounted rate of purchases interest (9.99%p.a).

Save on the insurance that gives you peace of mind when you’re overseas.

1. An eligible merchant is any travel agent, online travel booking sites, airline or hotel, or any merchant ANZ advises as being an Eligible Merchant for the purposes of determining whether flexible payment offers are available. Purchases exclude cash and cash equivalent transactions. To apply to transfer a qualifying transaction to a flexible payment option call 13 22 73 after the transaction has posted to your account. This is usually 48 hours from the date you made the qualifying transaction. Your application must be made within 30 days of the date you made the qualifying transaction. Approval is subject to your accounts being in good order. Total purchases including the qualifying transaction cannot exceed your credit limit. ANZ reserves the right to add, change or withdraw flexible payment options at any time without prior notice. ANZ will not be liable to any loss or damage resulting from a delay in the process of receiving and/or approving applications. Your flexible payment option may be cancelled if you are in default or if you transfer to another ANZ credit card account. Any interest accrued between the date of the purchase and the date the amount is transferred to the flexible payment option will be at the standard variable interest rate applicable to purchases on your card account, subject to any available interest free days credit on the card account. Payments will be applied to your account as detailed in your ANZ Credit Card conditions of use. A qualifying transaction can only be transferred to a flexible payment option once.

Instalment Plan: Your Instalment Plan will apply for 6, 12 or 18 months (as applicable) from the next statement date following the date on which your transfer is approved and reverts to the standard variable rate for purchases on your card account after 6, 12 or 18 months (as applicable) from the date the request is processed by ANZ. The approved instalment amount will form part of your minimum monthly card account repayments until your Instalment Plan is paid in full or the Instalment Plan expires..

Discounted Interest Rate: Any part of the amount transferred to an ANZ Great Rate that remains unpaid after the 6 month offer period will be subject to the standard variable interest rate applicable to your card. Your standard variable interest rates will continue to apply to all other purchases, cash advances and cash equivalent transactions.
