Perhaps Qantas Pay
That might be too easy - unless there was some requirement to transfer $150k to be eligible…
 
I really hope they don't just tie it behind one CC or like a Titanium card situation.
This is what I thought first up when I saw the commentary about tying it to some, but not all CCs...

They're facing a massive drop-off in CC usage, so this is one way to slow the bleed.
Surely it's the revenue stream from banks they'd be wanting to protect though, although I guess the internal customer / own brand card is a customer too

They could have just reduced the threshold to counter the new operating environment, however they’ve done the sums and figured this is more financially lucrative.
Internal sums? Surely this will be blamed on sorry credited to "customer feedback" that the old systems were too complex, etc...
