Points transferred to your Qantas Frequent Flyer account are captured on your CommBank credit card statement. Awards credit card holders can earn up to 50,000 Awards points per year, which is equal to 20,000 Qantas Points. Gold Awards credit card holders can earn up to 75,000 Awards points per year, which is equal to 30,000 Qantas Points.
