Virgin Atlantic has launched a new promotion for its Reward+ Mastercard credit card, with new cardholders able to earn up to 30,000 bonus points when applying in the coming weeks.

Cardholders usually receive a welcome bonus of 15,000 Virgin Points when applying for the card (which has an annual fee of £160) and making their first purchase.

But those applying by 2 October will also receive an additional bonus of 15,000 points when they spend £3,000 or more with the first 90 days.

Other benefits of the Reward+ card include 1.5 Virgin Points for every £1 spent on everyday purchases, and 3 points for every £1 spent with Virgin Atlantic or Virgin Holidays.

Virgin also offers a standard Reward credit card, which does not attract a welcome bonus, but also does not have an annual fee, and earns cardholders 0.75 Virgin Points for every £1 spent on every day purchases, and 1.5 points for every £1 spent with Virgin Atlantic or Virgin Holidays.

Full terms and condition for both cards can be seen here.

Virgin also highlights that cardholders can earn additional Virgin Points when making purchases through the Virgin Red app.

For instance a Reward+ credit card holder spending £60 at Boots through Virgin Red will earn 90 points for the credit card spend (at 1.5 point per £1 spent), plus another 60 points for the Boots purchase (at 1 point per £1 spent).
