Earn 5% bonus Velocity points when you next manually transfer Flybuys points to Velocity and 15% if it’s your first ever time using Auto Transfer.
This is the first time since March 2025 that we’ve seen a transfer bonus this good. If you’ve been saving up your Flybuys points to eventually convert to Velocity, now would be the best time to do it.
To earn the 15% bonus, you have to enable Auto Transfer for the first time ever. If you’re ineligible for the Auto Transfer offer, you can still take advantage of the 5% bonus for manually transferring points.
You will only earn the bonus points on your first qualifying transfer. You can expect them to be credited to your Velocity account by the end of August.

I can’t recall if I’ve turned on auto transfer before or not on some of my family members accounts. Is there a way of checking? If it’s not the first time and I use auto transfer for this promo I imagine I won’t get any bonus points? Thanks
I don’t believe there’s a simple way of checking. I’d get Velocity to confirm it for you so you’re covered.
Is 5% bonus as good as it gets? Should I keep squirrelling away flybuys points or is now the time to pull the trigger on converting?
I have already done an automatic transfer so I am ineligible for the 15%
