DiDi Australia and Virgin Australia’s Velocity Frequent Flyer loyalty program have today commenced a new partnership giving Australians the opportunity to earn Velocity Points on every single DiDi ride they take.

As rideshare continues to play a significant role in the day-to-day lives of Australians, the partnership will see DiDi’s 4 million customers and Velocity’s 12 million members earn Velocity Points no matter where they are travelling to and from, in an Australian airline loyalty program exclusive.

The new partnership is set to skyrocket the Velocity Points balances of millions of Australians, getting them to their next holiday faster.

Velocity members can redeem Velocity Points on flights with Virgin Australia and its partner airlines, holiday packages, experiences, household goods and more.
