Best transfer deal for a while from banks to VFF (selected banks only)

Caveat: you must turn on auto transfers and keep them turned on for the entire promotion period.
Caveat for ANZ and NAB Rewards: if you got the VFF bonuses (which require auto-redeem to VFF) then you aren't eligible either
Caveat: you cannot turn off and on auto transfers to trigger the bonus points according to the FAQs and only ANZ's T&Cs

Effortless earning, endless rewards
When you turn on Auto Transfer between 1 February and 30 April 2025 and stay opted in, you'll receive 20% bonus Velocity Points on all automatic transfers during this period.

    What happens if I have already turned auto-redemption on. Can I turn it off and back on to be eligible?

    • ol mate on 01/02/2025 - 17:02
      +1

      The FAQs seem to point to no, but it could be worth a try (given auto-sweeps aren't daily - e.g. NAB does theirs weekly on Mondays only)

      Am I eligible for this offer if I had auto-redemption or auto-sweep turned on before this offer started?
      Members must have been opted out of auto-redemption or auto-sweep at the start of the Promotion Period (12:00am AEST on 1 Feburary 2025) to be eligible for this offer.

    • ozbargainerlife1 on 01/02/2025 - 17:28

      for ANZ it says "Individuals who had Auto-Transfer turned on for Velocity Points as at 11.59pm AEST on 31 January 2025 are ineligible for the Auto Transfer Campaign"

      • ol mate on 01/02/2025 - 18:22

        Seems to only be included in the ANZ T&Cs.

        Will update the post to specifically call it out.

    What if I cancel my card after the transfer has gone through? Will I still get the bonus points?Reckon will have to take the gamble and wait till 31May to find out…

    • cker on 01/02/2025 - 17:05

      I have the same question

    • ol mate on 01/02/2025 - 17:06

      I also want the answer to this (have a NAB Signature with monthly fee, but won't hit the min. monthly spend to get the fee waived), but can't seem to find it.

      My point of view is that I'd transfer them to VFF anyway when I cancel the card (regardless of bonuses) so have enabled and hoping for the best.

    • Coops1 on 01/02/2025 - 17:15

      Transferred Nov, cancelled card just after, 2nd transfer in December to meet promo, got bonus points.

      • cker on 01/02/2025 - 17:35

        Why do you need a 2nd transfer to meet this promo and how did you transfer after cancelling the card?

        • Coops1 on 01/02/2025 - 17:38
          +1

          It was a promotion in November / December. It waa an example to say, cancelling the card didnt effect the bonus

    • tigerjie on 01/02/2025 - 21:55

      Same question here what if you cancel your card after doing an auto transfer but have not reached the end of the promo period yet, will you still get the bonus by 31 May?

  • digitalane on 01/02/2025 - 17:04

    Thanks. I have the NAB card and haven’t transferred my sign up bonus points yet so seems will be eligible.

  • ozbargainerlife1 on 01/02/2025 - 17:34

    what if you turn on auto transfer after getting bonus points on ANZ and only transfer say 20k points on first go and rest in auto next month… reckon that would work?

    is citi eligible now they are owned by NAB?

    • mrhorse on 01/02/2025 - 18:01

      I got exactly the same question :)

    • chuckwow on 01/02/2025 - 18:01

      Would like to know this as well.

    • ol mate on 01/02/2025 - 18:18

      Doubt it, it's still a citi-branded program not the "NAB Rewards" program.

      Just like how WBC owns StG/BOM/BankSA but isn't included in this offer.

    • mkowarkski on 01/02/2025 - 23:03

      No, citi is not eligible

    • bargaingalor3 on 01/02/2025 - 18:11

      Same here, I'm waiting for VFF bonus too so I can cancel it as it's now useless without payall

      • mrfuku on 01/02/2025 - 18:45

        Citi had a promo in Nov/Dec, they haven't had anything more than 15% for a fair while now.

    • caustic birch on 01/02/2025 - 19:19

      Yeah not worth transferring to velocity without it for me. Will just transfer to KF if there's nothing

      • bargaingalor3 on 02/02/2025 - 10:05

        I'm not familiar with KF points. Why is it better than VFF without promo?

        • caustic birch on 02/02/2025 - 10:48

          All comes down to your use case but for me in Perth I reckon there's quite a sweet spot with Singapore Airlines rewards to southeast/Southern east Asia. Can get all the way to Hong Kong for 21500 points for example in economy which is the same as what it costs to only go to Singapore.

          Less carrier charges than velocity as well and have access to their 'spontaneous escapes' promos.

          Points do have a 3 year expiry though so have to be confident you're going to use them.

          • bargaingalor3 on 02/02/2025 - 11:59

            @caustic birch: I googled it briefly and it says there's a fee to transfer to krisflyer? Have you tried from Citibank before and does it have fees?

      • May4th on 02/02/2025 - 13:07
        +1

        agreed KF is much better for flying international - more availability, better value seats
        you can convert KF to VFF and vice versa, with a 20% bonus it might work out to be roughly equal if you want to convert VFF to KF down the track with the advantage of it not expiring

        • bargaingalor3 on 03/02/2025 - 22:30

          What's the best way to find cheaper flights? Are "saver" options the cheapest? Where's the best value countries other than Singapore? I looked at some south East Asian countries from Sydney and it seems more expensive than vff

  • ffhound on 01/02/2025 - 19:04

    I have an ANZ Black card which I am waiting on the sign on bonus for. Looks like the 20% bonus will apply to the sign on bonus as the Black card is not excluded.

    • poorbastrd on 01/02/2025 - 20:11

      i have the black too, but i think the sign on bonus is "First Year Bonus Acquisition Points" which seems to be excluded…

      • ol mate on 01/02/2025 - 20:22
        +2

        The T&Cs specifically call out Platinum cards, but I believe exclusion is for this type of deal rather than normal ANZ Rewards points (e.g. this deal)

        • poorbastrd on 01/02/2025 - 20:43

          fair point. thanks for the correction!

        • alcadive on 03/02/2025 - 20:56

    Make sure you stay opted in and at least
    pne Auto Transfer is processed any time
    between 1 Feb- 30 April 2025
    - just wait until last day and do 1 auto transfer

  • Seymour Butz on 01/02/2025 - 20:18

    I have ~140,000 amplify rewards points sitting in my St George account. If I set my rewards to auto transfer to velocity will that only auto transfer my new points I earn on the card or the entire 140,000?

    • ol mate on 01/02/2025 - 20:23
      +1

      Your entire accumulated Amplify Points balance on your St George Amplify Card, as at the time of transfer will be transferred across to your nominated Velocity Frequent Flyer Account in line with your relevant credit card statement cycle. You will receive 1 Velocity Point for every 2 Amplify Points and a minimum balance of 6 Amplify Points is required before a transfer is made to Velocity. Your entire accumulated Amplify Points balance as at the time of transfer will be transferred across to your nominated Velocity Frequent Flyer Account on your credit card statement date. ​

      Looks like all 140,000 will be swept.

    • May4th on 01/02/2025 - 20:26

      double check when your anniversary date is - amplify has a 10% anniversary bonus, so you can potentially double dip if it's coming up

  • harryjuly on 01/02/2025 - 20:36

    Hi guys, I have multiple credit cards. I previously transferred points from a Citibank card to my Velocity account during the Nov/Dec promotion. This time, I’d like to transfer points from a St George card to the same Velocity account. Is this allowed to qualify for the 20% bonus, or do I need to use a different Velocity account?

    • a1234my on 02/02/2025 - 11:06

      Would like to know too.
      My is same card but deactivated auto sweep mid Jan 2025, after previous bonus points.

  • Ndiddy on 01/02/2025 - 21:19

    Similar question that @Seymour Butz asked above except for the ANZ Rewards black card. Would the entire amount sitting in my rewards account be transferred or just the points that were incurred from the billing period that auto transfer was turned on?

    • Ndiddy on 01/02/2025 - 22:15

      From the ANZ rewards site when trying to setup the auto transfer:

      You’ll receive the maximum amount of Velocity Points based on your Reward Points balance on your chosen date. Minimum redemption thresholds apply.

    After some thought, here are my thoughts on transferring bank or other points to Velocity or Qantas, even with a bonus.

    Lets assume you had 180,000 ANZ rewards points. With a 20% bonus you could transfer them to Velocity and get 98,000 velocity points. If you really want that Singapore Airlines business class seat you might think this a good deal.

    But is it really?

    You can exchange those 180k points for about $800 cash. Cash is the ultimate points currency. If you tried to exchange your new bundle of velocity points for gift cards you would get about $500 in gift cards. Those $98k velocity points are worth less than the 180k ANZ rewards points - thats why there are so many promotions encouraging you to auto-transfer - somebody (most probably the banks) are making a tidy profit on the exchange.

    But you say - how will I get my business class seat?

    I hear you grasshopper and indeed you have a point, but you must learn the way of the wise and how to snatch victory from the defeat of my open palm.

    You close your ANZ rewards card and apply for the American Express Velocity Platinum Card which has an annual fee of $440. You pay the annual fee with the $800 from your ANZ rewards card and you now have $360 left over. You meet the minimum spend on the AMEX card and receive 100k in Velocity points.

    So by choosing to get cash instead of velocity points and applying for an amex card you now still get 100k or so Velocity points towards your business class seat but you also get $360 for accommodation.

    • alcadive on 03/02/2025 - 20:54

      This doesn’t make sense unless you’re only ever going to have one holiday for the rest of your life. You should just get the Velocity points in both cases and put them towards multiple flights.

      • ffhound on 06/02/2025 - 21:43

        Unless you are going to use them for business class flights you could probably get better value cashing the points out and buying an economy ticket.

    • excite on 05/02/2025 - 22:44

      "180,000 ANZ rewards points. With a 20% bonus you could transfer them to Velocity and get 98,000 velocity points"

      Do you actually get 108000 velocity points?

      • ffhound on 06/02/2025 - 21:45

        2:1 exchange rate = 180,000/2 = 90k miles normally

        20% x 90k = 18K bonus points

        So yes you are right - 108K points which is worth about $516.

  • billsthrills on 02/02/2025 - 18:39

    I have 140k ANZ rewards points already in my account (from a previous velocity acquisition bonus) any ideas if this is still eligible for the bonus (as I was awarded the points prior to the promotion?)

      yes

  • magaboy on 04/02/2025 - 11:32

    Interesting - eventhough St George UI experience to set-up Auto-redemption is so clunky it seems like I was able to set it up.
    But it didn't transfer the points immediately.
    Assuming all of them will be transferred on the next statement (fingers crossed).
    Anyone else has a similar experience with St George's Auto-Redemption setup?

    • gembel on 06/02/2025 - 01:01

      I set mine up 2 days ago, the points still haven't transferred yet. I assumed it will be transferred everytime there's enough points?

  • ozbmm on 04/02/2025 - 12:29

      opt in to Auto-Transfer on their eligible credit card with their Participating Partner between 12:00am AEST 1 February 2025 and 11:59pm AEST 30 April 2025 (“Promotion Period”) and automatically transfer points from their Participating Partner to Velocity into Velocity Points between 12:00am AEST 1 February 2024 and 11:59pm AEST 30 April 2025 (“Promotion Period”)

    Does anyone know what will happen if I keep the auto redemption on the whole but close my credit card prior to 30 April 2025? Will I still get the bonus points?

    • dizzie131 on 11/02/2025 - 10:58

      T&C say you need to keep auto redemption on until 31 April, so my assumption would be that if you close the account you won't get the 20% bonus.

  • dizzie131 on 11/02/2025 - 10:42

    So my NAB points just transferred this week, and I didn't get the 20% bonus.

    Contacted Velocity and confirmed all bonus points will be paid to members 31 May 2025.
