Will I Still Qualify for The Points Promotion if I Use Someone Else's Flybuys Dollars to Pay at Coles

For the Flybuys offer 'Spend $50 each week for 4 weeks to earn 10,000 points

Can I shop using my partner’s Flybuys membership number but pay with my own Flybuys dollars by swiping my card/entering my PIN (Physical flybuys eftpos payment) - and still meet the spending criteria so my partner gets the $10K points.


Pay with your Flybuys card
Select Pay with Card at the checkout, swipe your physical Flybuys card through the EFTPOS machine and enter your PIN

    this reminds me of those "why didnt my cashback work?" threads

    Of course works.

  • not sure of the question, theres no question marks

  • Try it and find out, but whenever I swipe my flybuy card it offers to let me use the points on that specific card, I've never seen a prompt to enter a different flybuys card for payment.

      Physical flybuys eftpos payment

    It depends.

    • So what you are saying is the answer is definitely maybe, with a chance of that being wrong, on balance and in all probability?

    Yes. The payment method has nothing to do with the Flybuy offer which is qualified by hitting the required spend.

    FB dollars, unlike Woolies' Rewards dollars, can be used independently of actually scanning the rewards barcode, hence why it works.

  • No.

    Says
    1. Activate your offer
    2. Swipe your card
    3. Reward forwarded to your account.

      Wrong. You need to scan your card on the account with the Flybuys offer. Once scanned you hit check out and it asks for your payment method.

      At that point you choose payment method "card", swipe your other Flybuys card with the FB dollars (and I mean, physically swiping the magnetic strip on the card through the side of the eftpos machine), enter the pin, and the transaction goes through as a normal eftpos.

      • Doesn't seem like they want you to share.

  • I'm surprised at how many people don't know how flybuys works

      I could say the same about birth control, but here we are.

    Yes, I do it all the time. You can even redeem $10 off on your own card, then pay with Flybuys Dollars from the other card. However, you cannot redeem Flybuys Dollars from more than one card using split payment, it will decline the second one.
