Once you’ve made the decision about which Velocity Frequent Flyer credit card suits you best, you need to use it in the most efficient way possible to get the best value for your money.
- Use it whenever you can, for all purchases, both large and small. Consider setting a digital wallet app (e.g. Google Pay, Apple Pay) on your phone, to make it easy to use your card for small purchases like takeaway coffee.
- Be aware of bonus point opportunities, such as higher points for spending with Virgin Australia or other bonus points partners.
- Keep card costs low by paying on time to avoid late payment penalty fees, paying off your purchases balance every month to avoid interest charges, and steering clear of cash advances (which attract interest charges immediately they are made).
Try to redeem your Velocity Points for the best value rewards, as explained above.
