Thanks to its innovative concept of giving you two Rewards Programs to choose from many consumers will probably jump on this card. Find out how the card works and what it can do to help you amplify your lifestyle.
Introduction to the Amplify Rewards Card
St.George Bank has added another impressive credit card to their existing offers; the Amplify VISA Credit Card. This card works much like most other rewards cards with the one exemption that you can choose from two Rewards Programs, giving you more control of your lifestyle.
While some people prefer to redeem their points by going shopping, others much rather take to the skies to some exotic location. Thanks to the Amplify Card options you can choose either.
Two Rewards Programs Give You Control of Your Bonuses
Rewards programs are really just bonus offers you get to enjoy for using a specific credit card. The Amplify VISA Credit Card allows you to do just that and much more. Besides the usual VISA branded securities you can select to join either the Amplify Qantas or the Amplify Rewards Program.
Amplify Qantas – Amplify Qantas points will allow you to double your points by earning Qantas Frequent Flyer points and also points with the Rewards Partners when you use your Amplify Credit Card for purchases.
At present, you can earn double the points with 1 point give for every dollar spent before 30 June 2010. Starting on 1 July 2010 you will earn 1 point for every $2 you spend on your Amplify Card.
