Virgin encourages customers to get creative and earn Velocity points

By Alexandra Coulton

Velocity Frequent Flyer has launched a new promotion giving members the opportunity to earn millions of points.

The new initiative, known as Earnbassadors, invites members to creatively post about why they love Velocity and how to make the most of the program.

Velocity Frequent Flyer Chief Executive Officer Karl Schuster said, “People are obsessed with Points, there are websites, blogs, consultants and hacks for our Points.”

“We’ve been awarded for having one of the best redemption for Points in the world1, so our members know they can use their Points for rewards seats.

“Our members are also known for trying all sorts of tactics to boost their Points balance and we are already rewarding them for their creativity.

“From running a Velocity themed bingo, to writing ‘Velocity’ in concrete, to baking a Velocity cake – our members have already shown us that the sky is the limit. We’ve learnt there’s nothing that will stop our members in their quest to earn more Points for more flights.

“With our Velocity November campaign launching today, members can also earn an additional 15 percent bonus Points by transferring their reward Points from partners including credit cards, Flybuys and hotels,” said Schuster.

Members are encouraged to post their creations across Instagram and Facebook and tag Velocity @velocityfrequentflyer and hashtag #Earnbassadors for their chance to win Velocity Points.

Other ideas for Velocity members to earn Points for being an Earnbassador are:

• Film and post yourself beatboxing the names of as many Velocity partners as you can in one minute

• Engage a sky-writer to write ‘Velocity’ in the sky and post the video to your Instagram or Facebook page

• Name your new pet ‘Velocity’ and show us them responding to their new name

Where the bonus Points could take you:

• 10,000 Points – Sydney to Melbourne economy one way plus $23.29 taxes and fees*

• 50,000 Points – Brisbane to Bali economy one way plus $94.31 taxes and fees*

• 100,000 Points – Melbourne to Los Angeles economy one way plus $140.44 taxes and fees*
