It’s a points-earning, rate-locking, interest-free card.
When you load via the Qantas Money mobile app or website, you can lock in the exchange rate3 on up to 10 foreign currencies4 - including Thai Baht (THB). Buying THB before you head off will give you peace of mind that even if the rates move up or down while you’re away, your pre-loaded currencies won’t. This means you’ll always know exactly how much money you have available to spend for better budgeting abroad.
Check out today's rate below. The handy currency converter tool will tell you how much AU$1 will buy if you load THB within the next four hours.3
Whether you’re soaking up the sun on one of the many exotic islands, or exploring a hidden inland temple, one thing’s for sure - you’ll need to buy some Thai Baht (THB). Thailand is a smorgasbord of flavours, both in the cooking and the culture. There’s cooking classes, temples a plenty and of course, the famous tuk tuk rides. Whatever you’re doing, you’ll definitely need to convert some AUD to THB - and get your bartering hat on quick-smart!
Load it up and lock it in
The great thing about travelling with a Qantas Pay card is that you can lock in the exchange rate of your desired currency prior to traveling3 - up to 10 exchange rates at one time4. Meaning you’ll always know exactly how much money you have, even when visiting more than one destination. Even better, you’ll earn Qantas Points on the foreign currency you spend. All you need to do is load your money onto your Qantas Pay card, via the Qantas Money mobile app or website. You can choose from instant load, bank transfer, or BPAY®, whichever suits you.
It’s been frequented by travellers since the hippie trail and is now Asia’s primary travel destination. It’s got everything you need for a journey into paradise, crystal blue water, white sandy beaches and delicious exotic Thai food. Or, if you’re looking for more of a sensory overload then look no further than Bangkok, with its lights, people and action.

Thailand's top destinations
It’s been frequented by travellers since the hippie trail and is now Asia’s primary travel destination. It’s got everything you need for a journey into paradise, crystal blue water, white sandy beaches and delicious exotic Thai food. Or, if you’re looking for more of a sensory overload then look no further than Bangkok, with its lights, people and action.
Bangkok
A classic city of east meets west - the ancient and modern sit side by side in this energetic city. Take a ride in a tuk-tuk, or let the ultra-modern metro and elevated Skytrain whisk you around grand shopping malls. Experience the flower markets which take place on the network of canals. Or visit one of the many (many) temples scattered throughout. As a city that’s modernising rapidly, Bangkok has managed to hold on to traditional culture fiercely. Ensuring your experience will be anything but tame.
Phuket
As Thailand’s biggest island, you’ll be spoilt for things to do. Relax on one of the many golden sandy beaches, explore the hilly countryside inland, meet the friendly locals or take in a show. There are accommodation options to suit every budget, from cheap and cheerful to luxurious retreats. No matter your age there’s an activity to suit. It’s no wonder that tourists from around the world keep returning to the friendly, palm-fringed shores of Phuket.
Koh Samui
It’s famous with tourists all around the world and has come a long way from the days of the hippie trail. A mix of stylish and upmarket resorts sitting happily alongside street-side food stalls. It’s the learn-to-dive capital of Thailand so if you haven’t got your PADI yet, this could be your chance. Known for its golden, sandy beaches, the island is a cosmopolitan melting pot. A haven for budget-seeking backpackers and exclusivity-seeking big spenders alike.
