Transfer to Velocity 10-20% bonus promo - May/June 2026

As I seem to have inadvertently reached max reward points earn for year on MyCard, which is annoying given the bonus.
Out of interest (and possible personal relevance), does the annual cap seem to have been across both the old platform (Citi) and new platform (MyCard) periods? Or you earned enough just after the new platform start?
 
My anniversary and switch to MyCard were around same time so hard to be certain, but I’ve earned enough on MyCard alone
 
When is auto transfer of the points usually done? I'm deciding between Auto and manual transfer and want to use the transferred points for a redemption asap. This is in relation to the current bonus offer.
 
Points for this month haven't autoswept yet
 
MyCard points auto-swept out Sun/Mon but yet to sweep into Velocity. Anyone else seeing delays?
 
Anyone received the TF bonus for August / September yet? Ps Just found the Ts and Cs....will be posted by 31 October :(
 
I'm a new MyCard member, have met my spend criteria and am now waiting for the sign-up bonus to be awarded.

I've enrolled into Autoredemption from MyCard to VFF - if the ratio is still 3:1 - is there an actual advantage of enrolling into Autoredemption compared to just keeping the points in your MyCard rewards points balance and manually transferring when needed?

Unless Autoredemption provides bonus points upon transferring, there's no real reason other than convenience, compared to doing it manually.

Without having checked for this exact offer:
(1) I thought that the T&C's for such offers explicitly required you were and remained enrolled in auto redemption.
(2) The auto redemption offers are often more generous than the concurrent card points offer, if you were even eligible for that if you signed up the auto redemption offer path.

Yes to both.

I signed up / was approved prior to October 1 and enrolled into Autoredemption as soon as I could.

The T&Cs mentioned 60k bonus VFF points converted from 120k MyCard rewards points at a 2:1 ratio (which I hope will be retrospectively applied and honoured - ie. Instead of 120k points, it will be 180k MyCard rewards points converted to 60k VFF points at the current 3:1 ratio).

I know I'm probably too late to be eligible for the additional 20% bonus, but just wanting to see for future promotions.
 
Given that the headline offer would have been for 60k VFF bonus points, with the mention of 120k (old) MyCard reward points only in the T&C detail, that would seem to bind them to achieving the 60k VFF points regardless of changes.

What I was alluding to was there was probably a concurrent MyCard offer for people who did not sign up down the VFF pathway, i.e. a pure bank program points offer. But these are generally pitched at lower equivalent levels, i.e. less than 120k (old) MyCard reward points. Such that it might have been something like 60k VFF / 90k (old) MyCard. Although I suspect it is all moot, such that if you signed up for the VFF deal, the VFF deal is the one available to you, i.e. could not now change across deals even were that your desire (other than at MyCard manually exercised discretion, if they would).

For reference, their current "choose your offer" is for:

Option 1 (VFF): 60,000 VFF now + 40,000 VFF later, which the T&Cs clarify to be done via 180,000 MyCard (new) now + 120,000 MyCard (new) later (total 300,000 MyCard new)
Option 2 (bank rewards): 120,000 MyCard (new) now + 30,000 MyCard (new) later (total 150,000 MyCard new)
