Similar to the personal card at $1200 for 100,000 points but this one is for business. I assume the application process requires and ABN - not expensive from memory - $30-40?

Yep. So if you apply the card via the thread in the Referrer section, both you and referrer get Membership Rewards Points.

Is it worth pursing in your opinion? $1500 for 150k points? The earn rate doesn't seem terribly high at 1:1 considering what you pay.
