Virgin Money offers a rewards program where you earn points on purchases. These points can be redeemed for cashback, travel, or other benefits. Our Virgin Money Points Calculator helps you determine how many points you'll earn on your purchases and how to maximize your rewards.

How Virgin Money Points Work

Virgin Money's rewards program operates on a points system where you earn points based on the value of your purchases. Here's how it works:

Key Features

Points are earned at a rate of 1 point per £1 spent
Points expire after 3 years if not used
Minimum redemption threshold varies by reward type
Points can be transferred between accounts

Earning Points

You earn points on eligible purchases made with your Virgin Money credit or debit card. The points are calculated based on the purchase amount and any applicable bonuses or promotions.

Redeeming Points

Points can be redeemed for various rewards including:

Cashback (1 point = £0.01)

Points Calculation Formula

Points earned = (Purchase amount × Points multiplier) + Bonus points
