Win a share of 20 million Flybuys points with OnePass

Until 31 December, new and existing OnePass members who link their Flybuys account to their OnePass account will gain automatic entry to win a share of 20 million Flybuys Points.

For every $25 spent in-store at Kmart, Target, Bunnings Warehouse, Officeworks or online at Catch.com.au, members will get an additional entry (e.g. $75 = 3x bonus entries). The prize pool is:

• 1x prize of 10 million Flybuys points (worth 50,000 Flybuys dollars or 5 million Velocity Points)
• 10x prizes of 1 million Flybuys points (worth 5,000 Flybuys dollars or 500,000 Velocity Points)

Up to 100% bonus when you buy Flying Blue miles

Unlock up to 100% bonus miles when you buy Flying Blue miles, which can be redeemed on Air France, KLM and other partner airlines. The maximum you can purchase is 200,000 miles at a cost of US$3,050, which is a rate of 1.53 US cents per mile.

• 50% bonus: Buy 4,000-14,000 miles
• 70% bonus: Buy 16,000-38,000 miles
• 100% bonus: Buy 40,000-100,000 miles

Up to 20x Everyday Rewards points on travel gift cards

For one week, collect 20x bonus Everyday Rewards points on selected travel gift cards at Woolworths. This includes Luxury Escapes and Webjet. Also includes Airbnb (but 10x points per dollar).

• Earn bonus points on up to 10 fixed-denomination gift cards per day (over one or more transactions)
• Earn bonus points on up to 10 variable-load gift cards per day (single transaction per day)

Extra 30,000 Velocity Points with your next credit card

Velocity offers a bonus of 30,000 points when you apply for a selected credit card by 17 December, get approved, and complete the sign-up offer requirements. Eligible cards must have an annual fee. As long as the card is listed on this page, it’s eligible.

The highest offer on a participating card is currently 150,000 Velocity Points with the American Express Velocity Business Card, which becomes 180,000 points with the additional 30K points.

20% bonus on transfers to Velocity (if you started in November)

Rather than a one-month, 15% offer, Velocity is doing things differently. This time, it’s a three-month offer with a 20% bonus. The catch? For manual transfers, you need to make at least one transfer each month (November, December, January) to receive the bonus points in February 2024. November is done, so if you’re participating, make sure to make the second transfer by 31 December.

For auto-transfers, you’ll automatically get the 20% bonus on each monthly sweep, though you’ll still need to wait until February to get the bonus points.

Get $300 cashback with APT Luxury Travel

Planning a journey by land, rail, cruise or even private jet? Check your American Express card for an offer from APT Luxury Travel. Save the offer, use the same card to spend $2,000 or more in one or more transactions, and receive $300 back to your statement.

You’ll need to log into the American Express website or mobile app first. Then browse to the ‘offers’ section or tab. Keep your eyes peeled for the ‘Australian Pacific Touring Company’ deal.

Up to 10,000 Velocity Points with Virgin Money car insurance

Car insurance up for renewal? Virgin Money is offering up to 10,000 bonus Velocity Points for new car insurance policies purchased online. You’ll also get 15% off your first-year premiums.

Simply sign-up for the cover online (direct through Virgin Money, not a comparison site) and enter your Velocity number when asked. You’ll get 5,000 points after holding the policy for 65 days, and another 5,000 points if the policy is still active after 6 months. The policyholder must be the main driver and their name must match the Velocity account.
