Earn up to 110 Qantas Status Credits on the ground

plus extra baggage allowance (appreciated by some).

As a staunch (in the extreme to the point of blatant cheating) carry on only traveler, extra check in is of no use sadly

No, not seen the SCs as yet, but it only crossed the threshold yesterday, so didn’t expect it was an issue.

Anyone had SCs show up yet for BP points?

@upupandaway the SCs just showed up for me, now:

And that's me done - without much extra effort. Here's the breakdown for those that are interested:

• Food and Wine (10SC) - Everyday Rewards Transfer on 1 October 2025 (SC Posted on 15 October 2025)
• Hotels and Travel (10SC) - Marriott Bonvoy Transfer on 4 October 2025 (SC Posted on 15 October 2025)
• Cards and Banking (20SC) - Qantas Amex Ultimate Monthly Sweep on 14 October 2025 (SC Posted on 16 October 2025)
• Fuel and Cars (10SC) - BP Rewards on 17 October 2025 (SC Posted on 19 October 2025)
• Shopping (10SC) - Qantas Marketplace Gift Cards on 21 October 2025 (SC Posted on 23 October 2025)
• Health, Leisure and Entertainment (10SC) - Kayo Subscription on 23 October 2025 (SC Posted on 24 October 2025)
• Utilities and Services (20SC) - Red Energy Referral on 26 October 2025 (SC Posted on 27 October 2025)

A total of 90SC and I didn't think that I'd get that many. I wasn't really banking on the Fuel and Cars category but managed to get 1,000 points from the 5x points/5c discount mishap by writing to BP Rewards. As for the others, Kayo wasn't on the hit list but with The Ashes coming up it was probably a decent enough buy and a Red Energy referral to a family member who was looking to switch came in handy.

This will likely get me to Silver (with a planned economy hop next month) after my fall from Gold during COVID which I am slowly on the path to rebuilding.

Thanks to all for the tips and tricks in this thread - it has certainly been helpful and will be interesting to see whether this promotion is testing the waters for a wider change to the way SC are earned.

How did the everyday rewards work? I have this linked to Qantas, does it happen automatically?

Yes, if you have auto transfer on (and not bank for Christmas), as soon as you get 2000 EDRs, they convert to 1000 QFF points and 10 SCs a couple of days later.

everyday rewards = Woolworths shopping card https://www.everyday.com.au/
You need to apply and link QF ffn
Can chose from $10 discount voucher or QF ff points for every 2000 WW every day points. Can also chose bank for Christmas

with a planned economy hop next month

$100 worth of travel insurance will net you 1,600 points plus 20 SC

Was very pleased with myself in banking over 1300 Wellbeing points in a single day 2 days back. Have just come to the sad realisation that Qantas Wellbeing App points are explicitly excluded for this promo

I have also gone down the travel insurance path to earn another 20SC and am disappointed to see that appear on my Qantas AMEX as "AIG Australia" meaning no bonus points from AMEX. Boo!

Yes - had two lots of bonus 500 points come in from BP. SCs landed the other day too.

Yes i got my SC today after spending $1 on petrol. Twice.

Have a hybrid car and rarely use the petrol tank for urban commute.
