Whether you’re an advertising agency or a business paying monthly media costs, RewardPay allows you to earn credit card reward points on expenses that traditionally don’t accept card payments. Instead of paying Google, Meta, Bing, or offline media suppliers directly from your bank account, you can switch to invoice-based payments and settle those invoices through RewardPay using your credit card .
Get Started
Paying media costs with your credit card can improve cash flow by giving you extra days before the funds leave your account. At the same time, you earn valuable credit card reward points on every payment AND can choose to earn extra loyalty partner points on every payment on top.
Pay 5 client media invoices of $50,000 each month on an American Express Platinum Business Card via RewardPay and you’re spending $250,000 a month or $3 million a year.
At up to 2.25 Membership Rewards points per $1, that earns around 562,500 MR points per month — or 6.7 million MR points annually — enough for well over 10 return first‑class flights, from payments you’re already making.

Google and Meta are increasingly shifting advertisers to invoicing or direct debit, removing the option to pay by credit card. RewardPay bridges this gap by letting you pay any marketing related invoice with your credit card, so you continue earning frequent flyer points, business rewards points, or cashback depending on your card. This applies to: Google Ads, Meta Ads, Bing/Microsoft Ads, TikTok Ads, outdoor, radio, TV, print, influencer invoices, freelancer, or contractor invoices & more.
Using a credit card through RewardPay creates a valuable buffer between when media bills are due and when cash actually leaves your business. With up to 55 days interest‑free on cards like Amex (depending on your billing cycle), you can pay large media invoices while keeping cash on hand — whether that’s waiting for client payments, funding growth, or managing campaign spikes. This interest‑free float is especially valuable for agencies, advertisers with large media budgets, and campaign or seasonal businesses, offering flexibility that traditional loans or overdrafts can’t match.
Go beyond your credit card rewards. With RewardPay, you can top up your Partner Points on every business payment you make. Choose to earn extra Qantas Points, Velocity Points, or ALL Accor Points—exactly when you need them—to secure a business or first‑class flight, or a luxury hotel stay for yourself, your family, or your team. You’re not limited to just one rewards partner. With RewardPay, you can boost points across all three programs with every eligible payment and truly maximise your rewards.
