Merchants can now earn Qantas Points simply by transacting through their EFTPOS device
A 2015 study found that close to a quarter of Australian small business owners hadn’t taken a vacation in over two years, with over half having struggled to take any time off to begin with. The reasons listed included being the primary decision maker, being too busy, or simply being unable to relax outside of the office
In addition, many business owners were not letting themselves enjoy a holiday due to spending guilt. Separating personal and business expenses from a tax standpoint is easy, yet the two can often feel one and the same and rationalising a luxurious trip to New York or Paris can be difficult.
To counter this, business owners have become savvy collectors of frequent flyer points and air miles. The Sydney Morning Herald recently wrote about ‘the small business owners who are point-hacking gurus’. Most are using charge and credit cards for their business expenses, especially those that have a diary full of travel.
Yet there remains a decent number of businesses that are not willing or needing, to pay the card premium or even use credit cards for expenses. And not all small businesses need to travel for work, so how can they benefit?
