Your credit card changes explained

We’ve answered common questions about changes to your BOQ Credit Card from 1 October 2026. To see what is changing for you, please read the email or letter we sent you in July 2026.

Why we are making changes?

How do I know which changes apply to me?

We sent you an email or letter with your changes. Please read it to see what is changing for you.

Do I need to do anything before 1 October 2026?

No. You do not need to do anything. The changes will start on 1 October 2026.

What if I have additional questions?

You can call us on 1300 55 72 72 or +61 7 3336 2420 if calling from overseas.

Can you make these changes?

Yes. Most changes require us to give you at least 30 days’ notice, which we have done. You can read more in the Variation Notice.

What if I don’t want to accept the changes?

The changes will automatically apply. You can keep using your card, or:

  • apply for another card;
  • close your account

Will I continue to receive all my other benefits?

If a benefit is listed in the email or letter we sent you, it is changing. If it is not listed, it will stay the same.

Changes to your points

When will the new points earn rate apply?

From 1 October 2026, Eligible Transactions (purchases and refunds) that are processed by us on or after this date will accrue points at the new rates. This includes if you have made the purchase beforehand.

Where can I find my new earn rate?

You can find details in the email or letter we sent you.

You can also read more here.

Will my Additional Cardholders earn points?

Yes. Spending by additional cardholders will still earn points, at the new earn rates.

Will this impact my existing points?

From 1 October 2026, the number of points you need for Pay with Points, Gift Cards and Points Transfer will change. For example:

  • $100 Giftcard today will require 35,800 Q Rewards® Points. From 1 October 2026, this will require 40,000 Q Rewards® Points.
  • $27 Pay with Points today will require 10,800 Q Rewards® Points. From 1 October 2026, this will require 10,000 Q Rewards® Points.
  • 1 Velocity Point today will require 3 Q Rewards® Points. From 1 October 2026, this will require 5 Q Rewards® Points.

These examples are a guide only. You will be able to see the new number of points you need for each reward on the myBOQ app from 1 October 2026.

Will the way I redeem my points change?

No. The way you redeem your points won’t change.

Changes to your fees

When will I be charged the new Annual Fee?

If your annual fee is changing on 1 October 2026, you will pay the new fee the next time your yearly fee is charged on or after 1 October 2026.

Because we told you in July, it may take up to 14 months before you are charged the new fee. For example, if your next fee is charged in September 2026, you won’t be charged the new fee until September 2027.

When will I be charged the new Additional Cardholder Fee?

If your additional cardholder fee is changing, you will pay the new fee the next time your yearly fee is charged on or after 1 October 2026.

Because we told you in July, you might not pay the new fee for up to 14 months. For example, if your next fee is charged in September 2026, you won’t be charged the new fee until September 2027.

Changes to your interest rates

Do the new interest rates apply to my existing balance, or only new purchases and transactions?

Any change to your interest rates will apply from 1 October 2026. It will apply to the relevant parts of the outstanding balance that you owe and to new purchases and transactions.

How much extra will I have to pay each month?

Your monthly payment may go up if your interest rates go up. This depends on how much you owe, what you buy, and whether you still have interest-free days. You can check your statement to see how much you need to pay.

I have an Instalment Plan on my credit card. Will this change affect it?

No. This change does not affect your instalment plan(s).

I have a Balance Transfer. Will this change affect it?

No. This change does not affect your balance transfer while your special rate is still running.

When your special rate ends, you’ll be charged interest at the cash advance rate. You can find the end date on your statement.

Mobile phone insurance

Am I eligible for Complimentary Mobile Phone Insurance?

To get this cover, you need a mobile phone plan with a monthly bill. You must pay that bill each month with your eligible BOQ Platinum Visa Credit Card.

You are not covered if you only make one-off payments, if you do not have an ongoing phone plan, or if you have a pre-paid plan.

What am I covered for with Mobile Phone Insurance?

This insurance covers accidental damage and theft you could not stop. You can claim up to $1,650 each year, with a maximum of $1,000 for each claim. You pay the first $50 of each claim.

When does my Mobile Phone Insurance cover start and end?

Your cover starts on the first day of the calendar month after you pay your monthly phone bill with your eligible card. It keeps going each calendar month if you keep paying that bill with your eligible card. If you stop paying with the card, your cover stops. It starts again 15 days after your next eligible payment.

Where can I find out more about my Complimentary Mobile Phone Insurance?

You can find more information in the policy terms.

Click to Pay

What is Click to Pay?

It’s a secure online payment option that uses your mobile phone number or email address instead of your card number, so that you don’t have to enter your credit card details when you check out.

How do I know if I can pay with Click to Pay?

You can only use Click to Pay online where you see the Click to Pay icon at checkout.

When will I be enrolled for Click to Pay?

We will automatically enrol your card in October, if:

  • your card is active
  • your mobile phone number and email address is not used by another BOQ Credit Card  customer (for example, your Additional Cardholder)

The first time you use Click to Pay, you’ll receive a one-time passcode to your mobile number or email address to confirm it’s you.

Will you send me a confirmation once I am enrolled?

No. By the end of October, we will have enrolled all eligible cards on your account.

What if I get a new card after October?

When you activate your new card, we will automatically enrol it as well.

What if I don’t want Click to Pay?

You can remove your card by calling us on 1300 55 72 72 or +61 7 3336 2420 if calling from overseas

  • Please note: Additional Cardholders can only view their own transactions. They cannot access account statements or see the Primary Cardholder’s transactions.

Are there other changes to my Account?

  • Dishonour Fee: We’ve removed the $15 Dishonour Fee.
  • Annual Additional Cardholder Fee (if applicable to your Account): Card activation by the Additional Cardholder will no longer be required before this fee is charged.

  • Removal of payments and Cash Advance at BOQ Branch: You can no longer make  cash payments, complete transfers or withdrawals to or from your  credit card at a BOQ Branch. You can now pay your credit card statement with cash at an Australia Post outlet displaying the Bank@Post symbol which will incur a $2.50 Over-the-Counter Transaction Fee. Other payment options will still be available including BPAY payments from a transaction account and Autopay (Direct Debit).

  • Total Cash Limit:  Your Total Cash Limit is the total amount of Cash Advances that can be made on your Account at any time (as a percentage of your Credit Limit). If your Total Cash Limit is less than your Credit Limit, this has been increased to be the same as your Credit Limit. This may increase your liability in the case of Unauthorised Transactions.
  • Interest Free Days on Retail Purchases:  If you have a Balance Transfer and make the ‘Interest Free Days Payment’ shown on your statement each month, you’ll now be able to benefit from interest free days on Retail Purchases.
