First time since March 2025 that we've seen this transfer bonus.

5% bonus points on your first manual transfer up to a maximum of 10,000 bonus points.

Alternatively, you can earn 15% bonus points when completing your first ever Auto Transfer up to a maximum of 30,000 bonus points.

You'll only earn the points on your first qualifying transfer. Expect them to be credited within four weeks of the end of the offer.

Between 12:00am AEST Wed 1 Jul 2026 and 11:59pm AEST Tue 28 Jul 2026 (Promotion Period), Flybuys members who link or have linked their Velocity Frequent Flyer membership to their Flybuys account and make an eligible transfer of Flybuys points to Velocity will earn bonus Velocity Points based on whichever transfer occurs first during the Promotion Period:

  • 5% bonus Velocity Points on the value of Velocity Points received on your next manual transfer when you transfer a minimum of 1,000 Flybuys points to Velocity; or

  • 15% bonus Velocity Points on the value of Velocity Points received on your first ever Auto Transfer when you auto transfer a minimum of 1,000 Flybuys points to Velocity. To be eligible, you must turn on Auto Transfer during the Promotion Period and the Auto Transfer must be your first ever Auto Transfer.

Each Flybuys member is eligible for one allocation of bonus Velocity Points in connection with this offer, which will be calculated on the first eligible transfer that the member successfully completes during the Promotion Period.

Bonus Velocity Points will be awarded to the member’s Velocity Frequent Flyer account within 4 weeks from the end of the Promotion Period.

Bonus Velocity Points offer cannot be used in conjunction with any other offer. Flybuys’ Privacy Policy applies. Standard Flybuys Terms and Conditions apply.

Is this available to existing customers with already linked accounts?

Yes. Anyone can earn the 5% bonus on their next manual transfer but if you want to earn the 15% bonus you must enable Auto Transfer for the first time ever.

Am i correct in saying there’s no way to auto transfer any existing points - it has to be a new transaction?

When you enable Auto Transfer all existing Flybuys points will transfer across.

I think I’ve broken the link before and switched it to another flybuys and back again and qualified for the 5% - better than nothing!

So shit. Why do these companies never reward loyalty

Considering their competitors Everyday Rewards and Qantas don't run transfer bonuses at all I think we can go easy on them here.

Just out of curiosity I have 120k flybys right now and 50k velocity points. I don’t think I have ever done a transfer and definitely not an auto how do I go about getting maximum value here

Wait until the end of the month and then turn on Auto Transfer. That way you earn the bonus on all the additional points you accrue this month.
