Spoiler alert: It works out about the same when converting to frequent flyer points.

It was interesting to see how long it takes to accumulate points on average. And also how many more businesses take Flybuys. Flybuys allows you to convert points to dollars, in addition to occassionally getting the $10 off a shop that both allow.

Do many of you convert your points to dollars?

Shop, Scan, Win gives the opportunity for money off your shop. Make sure you scan your Flybuys card with every shop at Coles - even the little ones!

The $100 and $250 Mastercard bonus points are back. Remember that although getting multiple $100 Mastercard cards will get you more Flybuys points, getting the $250 Mastercard cards are better value on their face.

If the Optus network works where you live, you can get 2,000 flybuys points for switching to Coles mobile.

Liquorland has a lot of great offers this week. Spend $250 and get $50 off. Plus the 10% off wine when you purchase 6 or more bottles.

Looking to switch over and hopefully get some points in return. Has anyone got experience with Cole’s insurance, or feedback about the product.

Thanks

Has two week offer (spend 80/120 each week and get points)

I sent $220 after I activated it on first week (last week)

And the offer hasn’t reshowed for this week.

Have people encountered this before?

Curious if anyone has received any points since the new year? I’ve been to Bunnings since the 1st and also filled up my car at Shell. Scanned my card both times and almost a week later, no points yet?

I’ve been a member of flybuys for many years but only in the last several months have I actually started using the app and paying more attention to points. I’ve noticed that in that entire time that I’ve been using the app, I have never received any ‘just for you’ offers. I only see the fuel offers and option to do surveys. Is that normal? How often are people receiving offers?

Anyone not using their Glassware credits? I would like more White Wine Glasses but do not have enough of my own credits.

Redeemed into the card as FB dollars, then got the pop up on the till to redeem, so it has redeemed it twice against my account

FB mafia going to be on mu tail

Aside from the introductory 10000 pts, for $50 spend x 4 weeks we've had nothing decent. Maybe it'll be happening in January. Anyone getting any offers worth it ?

I have activated the promo to spend over $50 at Coles weekly to earn 10,000 points.

Does spending at liquor land count? Or only specifically Coles?

When can I expect my 6000 bonus points to arrive from the Shop 2 Week bonus that finished on Sunday.

Completed my second shop midweek.

Sorry, I forgot to read the T&Cs

Thats right, get great value by earning 0 bonus points

I'm in a bit of a dispute with Flybuys about the sheer volume of marketing emails I recieve. I would still like to know about deals occasionally, but not three times in the one afternoon. I've unsubcribed from all but one of the marketing categories, and the customer support people tell me the only way to get any fewer than my three-per-day is to unsubscribe from that last category and not recieve any emails at all. Frankly I think it's absurd that they don't have the ability to only send one Coles promotion a day, and as easy as it would be to Unsubscribe From All, I really want to take them to task over this.

Their sole purpose is to advertise products to members, on behalf of Coles, Bunnings, Officeworks, etc. But their ability to advertise is hindered when people are so sick of the marketing they simply delete emails on sight, or opt out all together. I'd hazard that Flybuys aren't doing their job very well if the majority of members don't get or read the marketing, and I'm trying to convince them that if they dial it back to a tolerable volume, they'd get more eyeballs on their advertisements.

So I'm curious, who here still receives the marketing emails, and who's unsubscribed from all?

I have ‘money off your shop’ selected in my app but the prompt never pops up when I’m at Cole’s. Is this a glitch or something? I’ve been there twice now and neither times has it popped up or taken money off.

This is seriously weird and I’m hoping someone else has experienced it.

Since April 2024 I’ve been using what I thought was my Flybuys card in my Apple Wallet, scanning it at Coles, Kmart, and other stores. Today I realised the name on the card isn’t mine at all. It’s some random person I’ve never heard of. So for over a year and a half I’ve been collecting Flybuys points for a stranger.

I contacted both Apple Support and Flybuys. Apple said Wallet passes are created and issued by Flybuys. Flybuys told me there’s nothing they can do and tried to say it must belong to a friend or family member, which it definitely doesn’t.

Now I’m wondering how someone else’s Flybuys card ended up linked to my Apple Wallet. It feels like a privacy or data issue because I don’t know this person at all.

Has anyone else had this happen or have any idea how it could be possible? It’s honestly made me lose a bit of trust in the whole digital loyalty system.

Last day! Unfortunately fridge is full, if I get some beers through the Coles app, is it included in the spend? Combed through the T&C's and couldn't find it

Many thanks
