A big year in points and payments

Another financial year down. Another round of bills turned into points that take you further. Before we flex into FY26/27, let’s look back at the year that redefined redemption.

This is Business, redeemed. This is FY25/26 wrapped.

13.5 billion PayRewards Points issued

That’s 13.5 billion PayRewards Points earned by business owners who refused to let a bill be a dead end. Every ATO payment, every supplier invoice, every everyday expense, all of it working harder.

9.8 billion PayRewards Points redeemed

Points aren’t worth much sitting in an account and our customers know that.

9.8 billion PayRewards Points were redeemed this year, and if you turned that into business class miles, you’d circle the globe more than 13,000 times over. That’s not a rewards program. That’s a flight path.

We dropped 5 huge features

This year we brought you 5 game-changing products:

• International Payments landed, so paying overseas suppliers stopped meaning lost points.
• Get Paid went live, turning incoming payments into another way to earn.
• The Mobile App shipped, putting payback in your pocket wherever business happens.
• PayDay Super support arrived, turning a same-day cashflow squeeze into another way to earn.
• Meta Ads came online, letting you pay Meta in AUD and keep the exchange rate out of it.

Five launches, all with one mission – helping you earn more points, in more ways, on all your business bills.

77% used a credit card to pay the ATO

Most businesses pay tax like it’s a chore, ours pay it like it’s a strategy. 77% of our customers used a credit card to settle the ATO this year and walked away with full credit card rewards on a bill everyone else treats as dead weight.

We sent your money to 27 countries

When it came to international payments, the top destinations we went your money to were China, the US and the UK. Wherever the money moved, the points moved with it.

951 PayTravel bookings

Our PayTravel team helped find reward seats and design itineraries for 951 bookings, using points earned from paying your business bills.

Where everyone was headed

Top PayTravel destinations this year: Japan, Greece and Italy. Turns out redemption looks a lot like ramen in Tokyo, sunsets in Santorini and pasta in Puglia.

88,000 business owners and counting

88,000 business owners are already earning points on the payments they make and the payments they receive. They’ve turned bills into boarding passes, tax into travel, and everyday spend into serious payback.

Will you be next?
