Westpac’s credit card customers can now transfer Altitude or Amplify points to Everyday Rewards points to redeem for their weekly shop.
In what is promoted as an Australian first, Westpac Altitude Rewards and St.George, Bank of Melbourne, and BankSA Amplify Rewards customers can manually or automatically transfer their points to Everyday Rewards.
Customers will receive 2000 Everyday Rewards points for every 3000 Altitude or Amplify points, which they can redeem for $10 off groceries, clothing, pet goods, drinks, or petrol, or bank for Christmas to spend later. Eligible retailers include Woolworths, Woolworths Metro, Big W, BWS, Petstock, MyDeal, and participating EG Ampol outlets.
Westpac Acting Managing Director Consumer Finance & Digital Duncan Woods says the new points proposition will give customers more choice in how they use points in the lead-up to the festive season.
“Our partnership with Everyday Rewards means we can offer another way to utilise points when many people are budgeting for an expensive time of year – enabling our customers to put points towards prawns, pavlovas and even petrol when travelling for family Christmas events,” he says.
“We have seen our customers increasingly leveraging their points to make their money work harder. Being able to transfer Altitude and Amplify points to Everyday Rewards points gives our customers more choice in how they want to save and spend, suited to their budget and lifestyle.”
Everyday Rewards Managing Director Hannah Ross believes this partnership will provide Everyday Rewards members with even more ways to collect points, leading to more savings at the checkout.
“We’re delighted to welcome Westpac Altitude Rewards and St.George, Bank of Melbourne, and BankSA Amplify Rewards customers to the Everyday Rewards program,” she says.
“This partnership will help our members earn Everyday Rewards points at a faster rate if they choose to transfer their Altitude or Amplify points. They will also be able to stack points by earning Altitude or Amplify points when using their credit card for purchases at Woolworths, BIG W and our partners, as well as scanning their Everyday Rewards card in the same transaction.
“Scanning your Everyday Rewards card, boosting tailored offers and now transferring your points from a Westpac Altitude, St.George, Bank of Melbourne, or BankSA Amplify Rewards credit card can lead to hundreds of dollars in savings throughout the year at our Everyday Rewards partner stores.”
