Qantas Marketplace is offering 5,000 bonus Qantas points when you spend $250 or more. Initially, this offer was only available to Points Club and Points Club Plus members but from Monday 4 March it became available to all Qantas Frequent Flyers.
The 5,000 points are in addition to the 6x and 9x points per dollar earned on Qantas Marketplace by Points Club and Points Club Plus members, respectively. Standard Qantas Frequent Flyer members earn 3x points per dollar spent.
To put that into perspective, a Points Club member buying a $250 item would earn a total of 6,500 Qantas points whilst a Points Club Plus member would receive 7,250 Qantas points. That works out to be an impressive 26-29x Qantas points per dollar spent.
You also have the choice of saving 25% on the points price of an item but we don’t recommend using points to purchase products as it offers comparatively poor value when compared to reward flight redemptions.
Note that gift cards and certain other products are apparently excluded from bonus points offers.

Just wondering if there is an activation to complete for this bonus offer? I couldn’t see anything?

Can you use it to buy gift cards off qantas marketplace?
It appears that gift cards are list among the exclusions.
Has anyone tried this on multiple separate transactions yet?
Would a discounted good be excluded? over $250 cash price after discount
The exclusions page does not appear to disqualify discounted goods from earning bonus points so you should be good.
Are we sure gift cards like Uber are excluded from the bonus 5000 points?
The exclusions page on Qantas Marketplace lists gift cards under the heading Bonus Points Offer Exclusions.
