Velocity Frequent Flyer and AGL Energize Rewards with New Partnership

Velocity Frequent Flyer, in collaboration with AGL, has launched a groundbreaking partnership that promises to reward millions of Australians. This alliance allows Velocity’s nearly 12 million members and AGL’s 4.3 million customers to earn Velocity Points through AGL electricity or gas plans. These points can be redeemed for flights, holiday packages, household items, and more, offering a new way to gain value from everyday expenses.

To commemorate the partnership, AGL customers in Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, and South Australia who switch to the AGL Velocity offer by 30 June 2024 can earn up to 35,000 Velocity Points over 12 months. In Western Australia, AGL customers switching to the AGL Velocity offer for gas can earn up to 12,500 Velocity Points in the same period.

35,000 Velocity Points could secure up to five one-way domestic Economy Lite flights with Virgin Australia or be used for various items through the Velocity Reward Store, including Myer and Luxury Escapes products.

Here’s how customers can earn Velocity Points with AGL:

• New and Moving Customers (Electricity and Gas): Receive 30,000 Velocity Points immediately and an additional 5,000 Points after 12 months.
• New and Moving Customers (Electricity Only): Earn 20,000 Velocity Points upfront and 2,500 Points after a year.
