Ahh beaten!

What is the offer, and how does it work?​

You can unlock Status Credits on the ground by registering before 31 October and earning 1,000 Qantas Points in each designated category before 31 December, as long as the points land in your Qantas Frequent Flyer account by 31 March 2026.

There are eight (8) categories to complete, allowing you to earn up to 110 Status Credits in total.

To unlock Status Credits on the ground, you must:

Register for the offer by 31 October 2025.
Earn Qantas Points across the 8 different categories by 31 December.
Have the Qantas Points land in your account before 31 March 2026.
Please note:

You’ll receive Status Credits within six to eight weeks of completing a category.
10 or 20 Status Credits will be awarded depending on the category that is complete.
If you complete Cards and Banking, Insurance or Utilities and Services categories, you’ll receive 20 Status Credits for each category.
If you complete Hotels and Travel, Fuel and Cars, Food and Wine, Shopping or Health, Leisure and Entertainment categories, you’ll receive 10 Status Credits for each category.

Looking at the above screen shot, the only one I'd miss is utilities and services.

Edit: the Health, Leisure and Entertainment category seems to only cover Hoyts earning, nothing from kayo or binge, and wellbeing app specifically excluded. That's a tough one, how many times will I want to see the new Tron movie??

Need to spend $500 at Hoyts for 10SC....

I won't get the full 110, but it'll provide a nice trickle. Thanks for the tip!

Unless some bonus offer comes along, not sure I've ever seen any though... $500 is a LOT of popcorn!

I'll be due around 80sc which, given the recent DSC offer, overshoots the target by a bit

Yeah, don’t need any extra this year but will probably pick up a couple towards LTP…..

Note: Yes, they count towards LT status.

Registered but I can't actually see myself earning any SC from this offer. Can't even transfer Amex MR to complete the Cards and Banking section!

And as a member with a December year-end, looks like we get the short end of the stick again - offer comes too late in the membership year to be particularly useful (and looks like the SC's can't be deferred until the new year since they're backdated to the date the points are earned), on top of the fact that we can't defer the 'gift' SCs credited last month to the new membership year either!
