Why Choose This Card

The MyCard Rewards Velocity Card is a smart pick if you’re specifically chasing Velocity Points, but don’t want to pay the higher annual fees that usually come with airline-branded cards.
 
For a $199 annual fee, the headline draw is the up to 90,000 Velocity Points on offer⁷. That’s enough to start thinking in terms of Business Class redemptions rather than just short-haul economy flights.
 
The extras here are practical rather than flashy. Up to 15% off on selected hotels with Luxury Escapes³ is genuinely useful — it’s a popular platform with well-curated deals, and the discount can easily translate into a “why not?” weekend away or small indulgence. The 10% off selected Expedia and Wotif hotels⁹ is similarly handy for short trips or domestic travel, and the included purchase protection and extended warranty insurance add everyday value without complexity.
 
There’s no lounge access and no travel insurance, so if premium airport perks or comprehensive cover are important to you, this card will feel limiting. More experienced points collectors will likely see this as a stepping stone rather than a long-term keeper, eventually upgrading to a higher-tier Velocity card with better earn rates and perks.
 
But if you’re Velocity-focused, want a strong sign-up bonus, and prefer a straightforward card without a premium price tag, the MyCard Rewards Velocity Card strikes a sensible balance. It’s particularly well-suited to Velocity loyalists who want their points earning to stay simple and pointed firmly at flights rather than optimised to the last decimal.

This guide references some of the benefits of insurance policies provided with this card. You should read the PDS and obtain independent professional advice before obtaining this product.
