Earn more rewards on your Rent expenses with RewardPay

Business rent, whether office premises, retail space or warehousing can cost ten’s of thousands every year. With RewardPay you can pay this expense on your credit card and earn points. RewardPay lets you pay business rent with your Amex, Visa or Mastercard even if your landlord or property manager doesn’t accept credit cards.

Why Use a Credit Card for Rent and Other Business Expenses?

Payroll

For Rent

Whether you run a shop, office, factory, medical practice, construction company, restaurant, warehouse, farm—or anything in between—your business likely has major monthly expenses like rent. The problem? Many landlords only accept direct bank payments, meaning you miss out on earning rewards on some of your largest monthly outgoings. With RewardPay, you can turn those unavoidable payments into valuable rewards. The points you earn can quickly add up to business‑class flights or luxury travel —simply by paying smarter for the expenses your business already has. Paying rent by credit card through RewardPay can also improve your cash flow, giving you extra days before funds leave your account—without changing how or when your landlord gets paid.

For example

You pay $10,000 a month in rent with an American Express Platinum Card, that’s $120,000 per year. At up to 2.25 Membership Rewards points per $1, you could earn up to 270,000 MR points annually. Enough for 2 return business‑class flights to Singapore, or 1 return business‑class flight to Los Angeles.

Why Use a Credit Card for Rent and Other business Expenses?

Unlock Significant Rewards Value

Every dollar you spend on your Rent and other business expenses is a dollar that could be earning you rewards points. Unlike paying direct from your bank account, where you receive nothing in return, using a credit card through RewardPay converts your business spend into points that can be redeemed for flights, hotel stays, gift cards and more. For a business paying $200,000+ annually in rent plus tax, payroll and other expenses, this could mean earning enough points for a couple of return business class flights—value that would otherwise be left on the table.

Improve Cashflow

Improve Cashflow

Credit cards provide a crucial buffer between when your bills are due and when you actually need to settle the payment. With up to 55 days interest-free (depending on your card's billing cycle), you can pay your everyday business payments while keeping your business or personal cash available for urgent expenses, taking advantage of investment opportunities, or waiting for customer invoices to be paid. This short-term financing is provided at no interest cost, unlike a traditional business loan or overdraft facility.

Double up on Points. Unlock more Value

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.

RewardPay helps business owners pay rent and other business bills and earn rewards – so you’re get something back for your hard work.

Yes. Rent is one of the most popular expense categories on RewardPay. You can pay commercial landlords and property managers directly from your RewardPay account, even if they do not accept credit cards. Your landlord receives payment directly into their Australian bank account as a standard bank transfer. You will need their ABN, bank account details and a payment reference such as your lease number to set them up as a payee.

Yes. Rent is one of the best categories to use RewardPay for because it is typically a large, regular expense that landlords do not accept cards for. Paying via Amex through RewardPay earns your standard Membership Rewards points on every dollar. You can also earn Qantas Points, Velocity Points or other rewards on top by selecting your preferred earn tier (additional fees apply).

No. Your landlord does not need to create a RewardPay account, accept credit cards, or do anything at all. They simply receive a standard bank transfer into their nominated account. The RewardPay processing fee is charged to you, so your landlord receives the full rent amount.
