Velocity Frequent Flyer and AGL have announced a new partnership that will give millions of Australians the opportunity to earn Velocity Points with AGL electricity or gas plans, which they can redeem for flights, holiday packages, household items, and more.

Velocity Frequent Flyer CEO Nick Rohrlach said the announcement marked an exciting milestone for Velocity, offering members more ways to unlock great value in their everyday lives. “We are incredibly proud to be partnering with AGL – one of Australia’s leading energy retailers – to give our members the opportunity to turn their energy plans into Velocity Points,” said Rohrlach.
“We know that value continues to be important for Australians amidst the high cost of living, and this partnership opens up more possibilities for our members to stretch their dollar further using Velocity Points to redeem on flights, household goods and more”.
“The addition of AGL to our extensive partner portfolio fills an important gap for members as we continue to grow Velocity to be the best airline loyalty program in the country,” he said.
AGL Chief Customer Officer, Jo Egan, said the partnership recognises the importance of delivering great value to both AGL customers and Velocity members. “We are thrilled to partner with Velocity on this exclusive residential offer for our customers”.
“AGL customers have identified travel as a high priority to maximise their energy rewards and that’s why we are proud to be Velocity’s key energy partner. We can’t wait for this partnership to take off and see our customers benefit,” Egan said.
“The next phase of our partnership will explore sustainability initiatives, and we are pleased to work with Velocity to identify opportunities to help our customers decarbonise the way they live, move and work”.
