Velocity 1 Point Rewards Are Back – In Pop-up Stores!

Velocity Frequent Flyer is bringing back its hugely popular 1 Point Rewards promotion for 2025 – but with a twist. This time, it’s in-store only at exclusive pop-up locations in Sydney, Brisbane, and Melbourne.

The campaign, famous for letting members redeem just 1 Velocity Point for premium rewards, has been one of the most talked-about loyalty promos in Australia. Now, it’s moving offline in a bid to avoid last year’s online chaos.

Don’t have any Velocity points? Sign up quickly and see the many, many ways you could quickly earn some points!


📍 Pop-Up Store Locations & Dates

Velocity will open 1 Point Rewards pop-up shops at:

  • Sydney: 8am, 22 August – 253 Pitt Street
  • Brisbane: Early September (TBC)
  • Melbourne: Late September (TBC)

Each location will run for a limited time with strictly limited stock. Once items sell out, that’s it.


🎁 What Can You Get for Just 1 Point?

Velocity isn’t messing around – rewards span tech, beauty, travel, and lifestyle with serious high-value gear up for grabs:

  • 💨 Dyson Airwrap – $849
  • 🛏️ Sheridan Egyptian Cotton Sheet Set – $379.99
  • 🛁 Sheridan Aven Towelling Robe – $169
  • 😷 WellCare LED Face Mask – $399
  • 🧳 Delsey Anvers Val Suitcase – $299.99
  • 🌸 Prada Beauty Paradoxe Parfum – $215
  • 🐎 Burberry Hero Parfum – $249
  • 🍖 Weber Baby Q – $369
  • 🎧 Bose QuietComfort SC Headphones – $549.95
  • ✨ ghd Mini Slim Plate Hair Straightener – $310

Not bad for 1 point.


💬 Velocity’s Pitch

Nick Rohrlach, CEO of Velocity Frequent Flyer, says the program is about making rewards accessible:

“You don’t need to spend big or wait long for your next reward – your daily spend on coffee, fuel, groceries, or your phone bill can get you there fast.”


🕐 Expect Queues – Lots of Them

The last 1 Point Rewards (online, June 2023) saw Velocity’s site crash under demand. Moving to physical stores is meant to fix that, but don’t expect it to be easy.

Like any high-demand retail drop, queuing early will be key. Popular items like the Dyson, Bose, and Weber will almost certainly vanish within minutes of doors opening.


⚡ Bottom Line

If you’re a Velocity member in Sydney, Brisbane, or Melbourne, this is your shot at some massive bargains for just 1 point. Get ready to line up – and move fast once the doors open.
