Australian home buyers and refinancers can now earn travel rewards through a new collaboration linking home loan settlements with Flight Centre Travel Group’s loyalty program.
World360 Rewards has partnered with mortgage broker LendUs, allowing members to earn up to 310,000 points when settling an eligible home loan, plus up to 2,000 additional points each month for the life of the loan.
According to the companies, the maximum settlement reward could be used towards travel including a return flight from Sydney to London, subject to redemption requirements and availability.
The arrangement is the first mortgage broker collaboration for World360 Rewards following earlier partnerships with Bupa, Caltex and HelloFresh.
Clinton Hearne, World360 Rewards Executive General Manager, said the partnership was designed to connect major household spending with future travel.
“We built World360 Rewards to help Aussies travel more often by rewarding how they spend — from everyday purchases right through to life’s biggest milestones,” Mr Hearne said.

LendUs compares home loan options across more than 30 lenders, targeting buyers and refinancers looking to restructure repayments, consolidate debt or access equity.
Dean Mendelowitz, LendUs Founder and CEO, said the partnership was intended to add an additional benefit alongside the financial side of refinancing or purchasing a property.
“Combining our digital home loans platform with Flight Centre Travel Group’s loyalty ecosystem rewards customers for one of the largest financial commitments they will ever make,” Mr Mendelowitz said.
