Get up to 20,000 Bonus Velocity points on a new Velocity points earning card

Velocity Frequent Flyer has introduced a new offer giving members the chance to earn up to 20,000 bonus Velocity Points when they apply for a new Velocity Points credit card. This bonus is awarded in addition to the standard sign‑up bonus offered by participating credit cards, making it an excellent way to boost your Velocity balance faster.

The number of bonus points you’ll receive depends on your recent credit card activity:

• 20,000 bonus Velocity Points — if you haven’t earned Velocity Points from any credit card in the past 12 months
• 10,000 bonus Velocity Points — if you have earned Velocity Points from a credit card within the last 12 months

To maximise your total points haul, make sure you also check your eligibility for the current sign‑up bonus on your chosen card. You’ll need to meet the card’s minimum spend or activation requirements to receive that additional bonus.
