  • What is Virgin Money Rewards?

    Virgin Money Rewards is our loyalty program designed with you in mind. Our goal is to recognise and reward you for who you are, and to help you create better money habits. It’s about giving you a rewarding banking experience every day, not just someday.

  • Which accounts have access?

    You’ll get access to Virgin Money Rewards with any of the following accounts: 

    With a Virgin Money Go Account you can earn Standard Points on settled purchases (not pending) using your Debit Card, BPAY payments and direct debits from your Virgin Money Go Account and cash outs from a merchant's point of sales terminal. 

    You’ll also be able to earn Bonus Points through a huge range of partner offers and booking hotels through the Virgin Money Rewards Hub. Not to mention, you’ll get access to other epic perks and experiences along the way.

    Virgin Money Points are generally credited to your account within 24 hours of the transaction settling (not pending), however may take up to 5 business days in some cases. Here’s what you can expect:

    • Standard Points from your eligible everyday spend on your Virgin Money debit card or Anytime Rewards Credit Card will generally take 24 hours and can take up to 5 business days on rare occasions.
    • Bonus Points earned through Hotel Bookings will be posted to your account after your stay with the Hotel. This may take up to 5 business days from the conclusion of your stay.

If you close all your accounts the points you earned will expire within 3 months of closing and you will only be able to redeem any remaining Points as an eVoucher (gift card) within that period.

      • BPAY transaction
      • Cash out from a merchant’s point of sales terminal.
    • If you hold an Anytime Rewards Credit Card, you will earn 1 Virgin Money Point for each dollar spent on eligible transactions19.

  • Does the way I earn points change if I share the account?

    In most cases, if you hold a joint Virgin Money Go Account, most points will be split down the middle between you and your mate. For example, you will each earn 4 Virgin Money Points per settled purchase, direct debit or BPAY payment on your Go Account and cash outs from a merchant’s point of sales terminal the next month.

    If you earn Bonus Points through one of our partner offers with your Go Account, the joint account holder who made that purchase will receive all the Bonus Points.

    If you are an additional credit cardholder, the Virgin Money Bonus Points that you earn will be credited to the primary card holders account, if the primary card holder is enrolled for Virgin Money Rewards.     

  • Will I still earn Velocity Points on my Flyer and High Flyer credit card and other products with Virgin Money?

    Yep, if you’re currently earning Velocity Frequent Flyer Points on a Virgin Money Flyer and High Flyer Credit card, Home loan*, super or insurance, you’ll continue to do so, just as you do today.

    Want Virgin Money Rewards on top of that? Simply take out one of our eligible Virgin Money accounts to get earning.

    Your eligible everyday spend will still get you closer to your travel goals: you can choose to transfer your Virgin Money Rewards Points to Velocity Points. (T&C's apply)

    *If you make a material change to your home loan including a restructure and/or opening a new loan account on or after 25 May 2020, you may no longer be eligible to earn Velocity Points. Please contact our Customer Care Team on 13 81 51 to discuss any changes you are considering.

  • Will I earn points if I’m an additional credit card holder?

    Yes, if you are an additional credit card holder of a Rewards eligible credit card, you will be enrolled to participate in the Virgin Money Rewards Program. Virgin Money Points earned when you make an Eligible Transaction as an additional credit card holder will be credited to the Primary Cardholders Rewards account (these points will not be credited to your Rewards account).

    Bonus Points earned through Virgin Money Card Linked Offers will be allocated to the Primary Cardholders Rewards account. As an additional credit card holder Bonus Points earned through Online Only Offers* will be allocated to the Rewards Account held in your name.

    2. Click on 'Rewards'
    3. Select 'Earn'
    4. Book Travel

    Your points will land in your Points Activity within 24 hours of completing your stay at the hotel. All credit and debit cards are accepted.

  • How will I know that my travel booking has been confirmed?

    Your booking has been confirmed once you’ve received a confirmation email from us with your itinerary details and a reference number. You will not receive a confirmation directly from the hotel or airline. Your booking confirmation or e-ticket from Virgin Money is all that’s needed. It contains your itinerary details, booking reference and all other important details for your trip. Once you have this, you’re all ready to go!

    If your booking is pending confirmation, our team is working on confirming the booking. Please sit tight, you’ll receive a notification via email within 24 hours about the status of your booking.

    To view your bookings online, simply navigate to Earn from the Rewards Hub and select Book Travel. Once there, select Manage Booking. You’ll be able to find details for all past and future hotel and flight bookings you’ve made via Virgin Money Rewards at any time. Bon Voyage.

    Please note: Your hotel may load your booking into their own reservation systems at different times. This means that any staff at the hotel may only be able to see your reservation a few days before your travel date. Please keep this in mind if you contact your hotel directly.

  • How many Bonus Points will I earn for my hotel booking?

    When booking a hotel through the Virgin Money Rewards hub you will earn 5 Bonus Points for every $1 you spend.

    The initial pricing shown during the hotel/room search steps of the booking process is rounded up to the nearest full dollar amount. Exact room pricing (including cents) is then displayed on the confirmation step of the booking journey. Your Virgin Money Bonus Points will be calculated off that final booking price.

    Most taxes and fees related to each reservation are already included in the pre-paid cost of the booking. For hotels, certain destinations may require a municipal city tax or resort fee that’s payable at the hotel directly and isn’t included in the pre-paid rate. We’ll flag any locally payable fees provided to us by the travel supplier on the check-out screen and in your confirmation email.

  • What if I need to change or cancel my travel booking?

    Unfortunately, changes aren’t permitted for hotel bookings. But you may be able to cancel your travel booking and receive a refund, subject to the applicable refund terms.

    Specific hotel and flight cancellation and refund policies are set by each hotel or airline. They may vary for each reservation and are available for your review on the check-out screen and in your confirmation email.

    Travel bookings can be managed online by clicking the Manage Bookings button on the Book Travel screen. Cash refunds for any amounts settled via a Virgin Money payment card will be processed back to the same card that you used to pay.

  • What if I provided the wrong information for my travel booking?

    We understand mistakes happen. You can contact our quick and friendly service team at any time via support@loyalty.virginmoney.com.au. We’ll do our best to help you correct your information. However, if your booking is non-refundable, there’s a possibility that the provider may not agree to make any changes.
