Velocity is offering an unspecified amount of bonus Velocity points when you transfer your Flybuys up until 15 Feb. There's a pool of 10 million points that will be distributed. The more transfers you make the bigger your share will be.

The minimum amount of Flybuys that can be transferred in one hit is 2000, so i assume sending this amount multiple times over the next month is your best bet at securing a bigger slice of the pie.

This promo is certainly a little vague. The only info currently available is the email circulated today to velocity members which doesn't have much in it. Watch this space.

    Last time it was 200 points each which equated to a 23% bonus. So a bit better than the normal 15%…… https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/293443

    This time around with multiple transfers is a bit different….so based on the normal 15% promotions you could get quite a few more points with less transfers taking place overall or quite a few less if lots do it…..bit of a gamble… I reckon the bonus points if transferring will be between 15-20% or thereabouts

      There was no need to transfer flybuys points in that promotion. It was just signing up via a link as Velocity hit 7 million members.

    Most likely the 10 million divided by the number of transactions made during the promo period.

    Assuming i calculated correctly, you would need less than 76,628 transfers for it to be better than the 15% bonus that normally pops up for a minimum transfer of 2000 flybuys (870 velocity points)

    Its not even clear how the bonus points will be distributed. It may be a certain amount per transfer or a certain amount per total number of points transfered across

    I have 30k, should I?

      Safer to wait for 15% bonus transfers imo. That's a sure thing. This is like pokies with points.

        Velocity have added the element of risk to this promo. Not the first time. Are you feeling lucky, punk? :p

      Better off cashing in those points for a $150 eBay voucher!

    It’s more like a lottery because the more people that transfer points across, the less bonus points you get. I’m not sure this be posted as a deal. Perhaps it should be posted as a competition?

    • dazweeja on 17/01/2019 - 20:00

      Obviously the bonus points won't be distributed until after 15th February…

    • mr_me450 on 17/01/2019 - 20:38

      It tells you the exchange is for 870 Velocity points when you make the transfer. The bonus points come later. What’s the issue?

    • wazza23 on 17/01/2019 - 20:45

      Lol

  • aeon on 18/01/2019 - 19:31

    Haven’t seen email about this and can’t seem to see it in their website… the wording suggests it isn’t targeted, are there any official links?

  • matt1234 on 22/01/2019 - 11:57

    I finally got the email, just got a slightly different worded version
