7-Eleven Velocity bonus points offers

[MELso]

I couldn't see a thread on the various Velocity bonus point offers that pop up from time to time on the Velocity app.

There is a standard offer of 250 Velocity points for the first transaction after when you link your Velocity and 7-Eleven accounts. See here.

For May 2023, there is an offer of 100 bonus Velocity points if you spend $5 on food or drink in store (in addition to the 2 points for every $1 spent), available once per day. To get this offer, activate it in your Velocity app.

This?

Velocity to partner with 7-Eleven

The 7-Eleven chain of petrol stations has applied for ACCC authorisation to partner with Velocity Frequent Flyer, presumably in response to BP switching over to Qantas Frequent Flyer...

recieved this 7-Eleven email.

fill fuel twice for 250points each visit....yet on clicking on T&C's, clearly they used previous offer T&C's.
so not sure if this offer for preium fuel or standard dirty fuel.

I'd go with the T&Cs in the email, which for me were

Did anyone actually see points from this?? My spend points have hit velocity, but no sign of the sign up bonus for me.

yes my first lot of 250 points came thru as did the petrol spend, yet to fill a 2nd time.

I guess I'll have to call Velocity on this then - thanks.

 

[AustraliaPoochie]

No bonus relevant to me as I live in ADL, no 7 eleven in sight, some might say uts a blessing, but I will miss after tomorrow when I fly back to ADL.
Good way to earn VFF points, and keep the account live without much spend.

I got this offer for those who haven't used 7-eleven before.

Points to paradise fast.​

As we use premium fuel and can take 60 litres not a bad haul.

Anyone else had the 7-11 account suspended or ‘error’ message which apparently means suspended? I use fuel lock and have never done a dodgy with that (I know others do).

I have switched to EG now, origin/wow/eg club/racv means I’ve been getting like 17c off per fill up.

 

[AustraliaPoochie]

NOTE:
Dont want a whole new thread.
But very important.
Not an offer as such.
But important note.
Put your 7 eleven numbers to something like Stocard.
My 7 eleven app pinged out, just used it yesterday tho, it was always there, so tried to do a "forgot my password".
Now it says I don't have a 7 eleven account, even tho I do, and have used it many times.
I gad put the numbers to Stocard on second phone, lucky that.
Will put numbers to Stocard on main phone soon.

Apologies.

[AustraliaPoochie]

Very happy with the 7 eleven # on my Stocard # on my phone, and pinged to the card reader, base points issued to VFF acc # as expected.

What is "EG"?

 

[oz_mark]

What is "EG"?

EG Australia is the company that operates the Ampol and EG brands in Australia.

 

[HS-TQE]

EG Australia is the company that operates the Ampol and EG brands in Australia.

Technically EG Australia is (the largest) franchisee of the Ampol brand, they operate under the EG Ampol brand at 540 sites. They acquired Woolworths Caltex from Woolworths Group in 2018 and took over operations in 2019.

Ampol Australia themselves through their Foodary and MetroGo brands operate over 610 stores nationwide.

Another 700 Ampol sites are operated by different franchisees in regional areas. e.g for example in Tasmania, many Ampol are operated by Bennett's Petroleum and TASCO (both franchisees). EG and Ampol themselves are largely limited in the Hobart metro area.

 

[Saab34]

Ampol is very a very confusing brand. In bed with so many different people!

 

[AustraliaPoochie]

Heh, confusing indeed.
"Worst" when they take over BP in South Aust, (the ones not being taken over by Viva - now OTR)...
Then we will have Viva also owning what is now the Coles Express brand/ing.

 

[Hubbins]

Short on some points for Virgin Velocity program this got me across the line.
You can earn up to 300 points per offer in the month. So an easy 900 points if you short.

 

[AustraliaPoochie]

OffT, but it irks me (grr), that there is not many ways to earn VFF points so much in South Aus anymore, (apart from Coles supermarket shopping).
Since so many Coles Express went on to become Caltex, and what ever rest went to become OTR, there are now only 3/4 Reddy left.
Feel so left out.
For those of you where 7 eleven exist, enjoy!
OnT.
