RewardPay is a practical tool you can bring to your clients to improve their cash flow, simplify tax payment obligations, and earn rewards on expenses that would otherwise go unrewarded. As an accountant or bookkeeper, you also benefit directly — with a referral program that rewards you when your clients get started.
Get Started
As a RewardPay account holder, accountants and bookkeepers can invite their clients to join the platform directly through the RewardPay portal. Once your referred client transacts more than $50,000 within their first three months as a RewardPay customer, you are automatically awarded 100 Airpoints™. The more clients you bring on board, the more points you earn — making RewardPay a rewarding proposition for your practice as well as your clients.
An accountant who signs up 10 new clients, each transacting $50,000+ within 3 months, can earn 1,000 Airpoints.
By introducing clients to RewardPay, accountants help businesses improve cash flow and earn rewards on everyday expenses, while strengthening client relationships and creating an additional incentive stream.
1,000 Airpoints is enough for a return flight to Samoa or a one‑way premium economy flight to Melbourne, simply by connecting clients with a smarter way to pay.

Every dollar your client spends on tax, IRD payments or supplier invoices is a dollar that could be earning reward points. For a business paying $40,000 annually in combined tax obligations, this could mean enough points for a return international flight or significant statement credits — value that would otherwise be left on the table. Additionally, when a client you refer transacts over $50,000 in their first three months, you receive 100 Airpoints.
Credit cards provide a crucial buffer between when payments are due and when cash actually needs to leave the business. With up to 55 days interest-free (depending on your card’s billing cycle), clients can pay IRD obligations on time to avoid penalties while keeping cash available for urgent expenses or waiting for invoices to be paid. This short-term financing is provided at no interest cost, unlike a traditional business loan or overdraft facility.
Bookkeepers or accountants prepare payments; clients simply approve. All their expenses - tax, payroll, rent, supplier invoices - are processed through one platform with clear timestamped records, full remittance documentation, that makes your job easier at review time.
Typically 1.67%–2.35% depending on card type

Yes. Accounting and professional services fees are a supported expense category on RewardPay. You can pay accountants, bookkeepers, auditors, tax advisers and other professional service providers through RewardPay. Your accountant receives payment directly into their New Zealand bank account as a standard transfer. You will need their NZBN, bank account number and a payment reference to set them up as a payee.
Yes. Amex payments earn your card’s standard Membership Rewards points on every dollar. On any payment method, you can also opt in to earn additional rewards with one or more of our loyalty partners by selecting your preferred earn tier at checkout (additional fees apply). RewardPay fees are also generally a deductible business expense, which reduces the effective net cost.
