How to Earn Rewards Points

If you have a Woolworths credit card, you can begin to rack up points fairly easily. With the Woolworths card, you receive a rewards point each time you use the card regardless of where you chose to make the purchase. However, if you make a purchase within the group of partner retailers, you receive additional points. With the Coles Group Source card, you will need to enroll in the FlyBuys program to earn points. In the program, you earn 4 points for every $5 that you spend. There is a cap of a maximum of 80,000 points per year.

How to Redeem Points

With the Woolworths credit card, you are given a shopping card every four months that you can use at any Woolworths store or petrol station. In order to get the card, you will need to have earned at least 4,000 points to receive a $20 value shopping card. With the Coles Source card, your points are transferred every three months. With every 2,500 points earned, you receive a $20 card. The points can be exchanged for flights, vouchers, small appliances, and other traditional rewards items.
