Velocity Frequent Flyer members now have a new way to boost their points balance simply by ordering takeaway or delivery. Thanks to a new partnership between Velocity and DoorDash, you can earn 2,000 bonus Velocity Points just by linking your account and placing your first eligible order.
How to Earn the Bonus
To receive the one-off 2,000 bonus Velocity Points, you’ll need to:
Link your Velocity Frequent Flyer account to your DoorDash account via the app or website.
Place an eligible order (for either delivery or pickup) within Australia.
Note: The offer is only valid for first-time linking and first eligible order. You must be a Velocity member and reside in Australia.
What is an Eligible Order?
An “eligible order” is any purchase made via the DoorDash app or website (in Australia) that isn’t excluded under the terms. Points are earned on the transaction subtotal, which includes:
Item cost
Delivery fees
Taxes and other applicable charges
This total is calculated after any promotions or discounts have been applied.
However, there are a few exclusions:
Gift cards: If you pay with a gift card, you won’t earn points on the portion paid using the gift card.
Excluded Transactions: Certain purchases (like alcohol or specific merchant types) may not qualify depending on DoorDash’s or Velocity’s evolving terms.
Ongoing Point Earning – 1 Point Per Dollar
Beyond the initial bonus, you’ll continue to earn 1 Velocity Point for every $1 spent on eligible DoorDash transactions going forward.
This means regular DoorDash users can rack up points quickly — whether you're ordering dinner, groceries, or a coffee to your doorstep.
Stack It with Cashback from ShopBack
Want to take it a step further? You can also earn cashback via ShopBack when you place your DoorDash order by clicking through their app or website. That means:
Velocity Points + Cashback = Double Rewards
Just make sure to link your Velocity account and activate ShopBack before ordering
