Samsung is immensely proud to partner with Qantas. We are excited to launch our partnership with these great offers and look forward to many more exciting new opportunities for our customers to earn points over the coming years of our partnership

and Qantas Loyalty CEO Lesley Grant stating

Home and personal electronic devices are ‘must-have’ items for many of us and generally require more investment than our everyday purchases, so our members will be delighted to know they can now earn Qantas Points on Samsung products

The above points are earned no matter what payment method you use but extra points can of course be garnered by paying with a Qantas Points-earning credit card. In a very inception moment these points can be used to purchase further Samsung products through the Qantas Store.
