Transfer to Velocity 15-20% bonus promo - Nov/Dec 2025

[Beer_budget]

I've never seen a manual transfer bonus that I can remember (I don't always have the best memory). Has this happened?

This exact offer had a manual and an auto transfer stream...

It tends to be no more generous than 5% these days, but that's still more points for free by holding out, ha.

Just got another email from AMEX for 20% Velocity transfers (not sure if Centurion exclusive?)

To receive 20% bonus Velocity Points, the Primary American Express Australia Card Member must be enrolled in the American Express Membership Rewards Premium Ascent Membership Rewards Program;

Mine is 15%

20% is for Ascent Premium and 15% is for others (Ascent, Gateway, Business Ascent). A nice way to get a few extra miles into KrisFlyer via Velocity, versus the direct 3:1 conversion.

On the Velocity website Amex offer reads 'up to 20% bonus', so it's card type specific. In the email I received from Amex directly this morning, the offer reads 20% and I have Plat Charge card.

 

[Strikes]

20% on Amex Plat Charge card here too. Just did a transfer and the 20% extra came through immediately.

My wife has 20% and I have 15, same card type so looks like other factors may also be at play!
