Just stumbled upon this current campaign for the Velocity Global Wallet Card. For every $2 you load onto the card, you get 1 Velocity Point, up to 1000 Points or $2000 loaded during the promotional period.
Because you simply have to load the money and not actually spend it to get your points, simply transfer the money off the card and back into your bank account once the reward points have been given. It's essentially 1000 free velocity points if you can spare $2000 and have it sit in a separate account for a little while.
Unfortunately it's only for new customers who are yet to activate or receive a Global Wallet Card. Also make sure to use the Bank Transfer or Bpay load methods to avoid paying the 1% surcharge that comes with loading via a debit card.
Terms & Conditions:
* To be eligible for bonus Velocity Points you must activate your Velocity Global Wallet® account during 00:01 AEST 1 October 2018 and 23:59 AEST 30 November 2018 (Promotion Period), enter the Campaign promotional code during the Global Wallet® account activation process (GWOCT) and load a minimum of AU$2 (or in the equivalent international currency) with Global Wallet® during the Promotion Period (Qualifying Load).
* You will receive 1 bonus Point for each Qualifying Load made during the Promotion Period, up to a maximum of 1,000 Points.
* All currency exchanges will be subject to the Applicable Exchange Rate and Foreign Exchange Fees and other fees may apply.
* Read the Product Disclosure Statement for more information on exchange rates and applicable fees.
* Bonus Points will be allocated to your Velocity account within 6 weeks of the end of the Promotion Period.
* Offer available to Velocity Frequent Flyer members aged 18 years and over who are new Global Wallet® members.
* Not valid in conjunction with any other Global Wallet® offers and non-transferable.
I am a dumb a** with, and slow in adopting, new technology.
Am I correct in thinking that this is a card like a debit card that can be used as such, and not necessary to have an app nor use mobile phone etc for this?
