Benefits of the ANZ Airpoints Visa

There is no maximum amount of Airpoints Dollars that you can earn.
- No expiry. As long as you hold a current ANZ Airpoints Visa, your Airpoints Dollars never expire. There is no cap on how many you can earn.
- Mobile payments. Connect your credit card to your Google Pay or Apple Pay account for more convenient shopping.
- ANZ Card Manager. With the ANZ Card Manager, you can manage your PIN, report a stolen card or put on a temporary block if you misplace it.
