Airpoints Direct Earn credit cards are another smart way to earn Airpoints Dollars. You just need to make sure your Airpoints account is the nominated earning account so that is linked to your Airpoints Direct Earn credit card, and you're away. There's no mucking around; you just go shopping with your card and any Airpoints Dollars you earn on purchases go straight into your Airpoints account. Plus, if you use your credit card with Air New Zealand and our Partners there's a chance you could be earning twice with Airpoints Dollars.
As well as earning Airpoints Dollars from what you spend on a Direct Earn Credit Card some cards have a range of additional Airpoints benefits.
See the card partners below to see what benefits you receive for each type of card.
