How TRADIE was able to accumulate 2 million more reward points with pay.com.au

The Challenge

With the explosive growth TRADIE was experiencing, their buying trips and corporate travel costs quickly added up to a significant monthly amount.

Pre-COVID they were going on buying trips every 6 months all around the world: six destinations across Europe, and between one and two in the USA – This was costing them thousands and taking straight from their bottom line.

The team needed a simple, cost-effective, and scalable way to reduce this cost – That’s when they discovered pay.com.au.

Like many organisations, TRADIE utilises the AMEX rewards program, because it provides greater flexibility and benefits. Unfortunately, like many businesses, big and small, TRADIE was dealing with suppliers that wouldn’t accept American Express payments. This meant they were missing out on thousands of points, and therefore, savings.

The Solution

By using pay.com.au, TRADIE was able to make those payments that they traditionally couldn’t, recovering the points they would have lost from not using their AMEX Corporate Platinum card.

Because they were able to earn the full reward points on their BAS, freight, and advertising expenses and pay those suppliers that wouldn’t accept AMEX, TRADIE accumulated over 2 million AMEX Reward points using pay.com.au.

As frequent flyers of Qantas, the team decided to convert their AMEX Rewards to over 1 million Qantas Points.

The Outcome

So how does TRADIE plan to use all those Qantas Points?

Apart from covering the partial cost of travel, they are now able to incentivise staff with Business Class seats and hotel upgrades. As the Aussie powerhouse TRADIE continues to expand, staff are now looking forward to the interstate and round world trips that were becoming much of a chore flying economy.

Now the team are planning for their upcoming stay in Queensland to watch the TRADIE car fly down the Gold Coast 500 – almost entirely funded through the points earned with pay.com.au
