Transfer Points to Velocity During May 2025 for a 15% Bonus

Got credit card points that you want to transfer to Velocity Frequent Flyer? Do it during the month of May, and you can earn a 15% bonus!

Velocity’s bonus points offer is back for May 2025. A similar offer usually comes around every six months (in May and November), but this promotion is less complicated and more lucrative than the last one.

How to earn 15% bonus points on transfers to Velocity during May 2025

If you have points with an Australian credit card rewards program, other than CommBank Awards, you can earn a 15% bonus on any points you manually transfer to Velocity between 1-31 May 2025.

You can also get a 15% bonus on any points that arrive in your Velocity account if you opt-in to auto-redemption of points into Velocity during this month. However, you’ll only earn bonus points on automatic transfers if you were opted out of this at the start of the promotion period.

Participating programs include Amex Membership Rewards, ANZ Rewards, Westpac Altitude, NAB Rewards and Citi Rewards. You can see the full list of participating bank programs on the Velocity Frequent Flyer website.

According to the offer T&Cs, the bonus points will be credited to your Velocity account by 30 June 2025. The bonus applies automatically – no need to register.

This is a better offer than the last one

In November 2024, Velocity launched an offer of 10% bonus points if you completed a manual points transfer during both November and December 2024.

In May 2024, the offer was 15% bonus points for manual transfers and 20% bonus for auto transfers – but only if you transferred during both May and June 2024. The promo six months before that required you to transfer points each month for three months in a row.

It’s good to see Velocity reverting back to a more simple offer that doesn’t require you to make a series of transfers across multiple months.

You can redeem Velocity Points for upgrades and reward flights on Virgin Australia, as well as flights on partner airlines including Qatar Airways, United, ANA, Virgin Atlantic and South African Airways.
