It's time to start thinking about your next adventure.

Now is the perfect time to take a look at your Velocity Points balance and start thinking about future adventures. 

Here are our top Points earning tips to make sure that when you're ready to travel, your Points balance is too.

 

Keep on top of what you've got

The first step to taking your Points balance to hello-holiday-heights is taking stock of what you've already got in your Velocity account by logging into your Velocity account on our website, or via the Velocity app. From there, you can take a look at your Activity Statement to see how many Points you have now, what Points you may have coming in regularly (from your Velocity Points earning credit card, for example), what purchases you may have earned Points on in the past, and start thinking about where you could earn Points in the future. 

By regularly assessing your Points balance, you can better understand your membership and earn behaviour in order to make sure you don't miss out on Points on purchases you would have made anyway. And with our help, you'll become a bona fide Points Junkie in no time. 

Stock up (or re-stock) the wine cabinet

Wine cabinet looking a little bare and need to re-stock? Entertaining from home more often and want to have a bottle or two (or more!) on hand? Whatever your reason, it might surprise you to find out that you could be earning Velocity Points on your Pinot (or Chardonnay, or Rosè, or sparkling wine, or... well, you get the idea). 

Whether you're a wine aficienado searching for your next top drop, or looking for something more casual to pair with Sunday lunch, Velocity Wine Store by Laithwaites has you covered. With a range of delicious, handcrafted wines from top regions around the globe to choose from - as well as a selection of beers and spirits - there's something for all palates, and you'll earn 2 Points per $1 spent1 on eligible purchases. 

Find the whole process of choosing wine a little overwhelming, and would prefer to just set and forget? The Virgin Wines Discovery Club might be more your speed. When you join the Discovery Club, you'll enjoy a hand-selected, expertly chosen case of wine approximately every 12 weeks (plus an extra one at Christmas!), and you'll earn 3 Points per $1 spent2 on each case.

Cheers!

Refresh your living space

We've all been spending a lot more time indoors lately than usual, and with that time can come reflection on our living spaces. If you've suddenly realised it's time for a home makeover, new couch, or luxe new bed,  we've got some good news for you - Velocity has partnered with a range of home retailers that earn you Points while you shop.

Bedroom looking more drab than fab? Look no further than Snooze. From mattresses and linen to locally made customisable bed frames and bedroom furniture, Snooze can help you create a bedroom to suit your style. You'll earn 1 Point per $1 spent3 on eligible purchases - just remember to provide your name and Velocity membership number in store or enter your membership number at the cart prior to checkout online.

Or maybe you've perfected your banana bread recipe and given your bedroom the Marie Kondo treatment, and it's time to take your kitchen and bedroom storage options to the next level by designing your dream kitchen or wardrobe with Freedom Kitchens + Wardrobes? Start your dream kitchen or wardrobe journey with Freedom Kitchens + Wardrobes and you'll earn 1 Velocity Point per $1 spent4 on eligible purchases. Add your Velocity membership number to your Freedom Kitchens + Wardrobes customer account portal to ensure you get your Points.

Velocity Points AND a fresh new interior? That definitely sparks joy. 

Shop from the couch

Now that you've got yourself a plush new couch or comfy new bed - why not shop from it? When you shop online via the Velocity e-Store5, you can earn Points on purchases you might be making anyway, with over 200 retailers. 

Shop the latest fashions with popular retailers like The ICONIC,  Asos and Country Road, get workout ready with AdidasBonds, Lululemon or rebel, or succumb to your newly found passion for puzzles at David Jones, Myer, Booktopia and Angus & Robertson Bookworld

You'll also find a wealth of other well-known retailers on the e-Store across categories such as technology, health & beauty, home & garden and more. Plus, if you make your purchase using a Velocity Points earning credit card, you'll earn Points twice - once on your purchase and again with your card. 

Take care of life admin

Whether you're the kind of person who gets a rush from ticking things off your "to-do" list or tend to leave everything to the last minute, earning Points on your life admin is a great incentive to get things done. Once again, you might be surprised by what you can earn Velocity Points on. 

Points for checking your home loan rate with uno loanScoreTM when you sign up to uno loanScoreTM by 30 September 2020, plus, 100,000 Velocity Points6 if you settle a home loan of $250,000 or more through uno by 30 January 20206? Tick!

Points for signing your furry friend up for pet insurance with petinsurance.com.au7? Tick!

Points for recycling those cans and bottles you swore you'd get around to, some day, with Envirobank8? Tick!

With all these options and much more, your "to-do" list will become a "done" list before you know it.  

 

And finally... plan your next getaway

Now that you're on your way to becoming a Points pro, there's just one more key way to earn that needs highlighting - planning your next trip.

With Points earn on accommodation, holiday parkscar hire, flights, travel insurance and more, you'll return from your trip with Points in the bank for your next one, meaning you're always in front. 

Now get planning!
