Unlock an extra 50,000 Virgin Points (summer 2026 offer)

The summer 2026 welcome bonus: 50,000 bonus Virgin Points for paying bills and payroll with Rewards on. Closed to new participants since 31 July 2026.

Written by Zach Hewlin

This offer closed to new participants on 31 July 2026. If you made your first rewards payment on or before that date, you're taking part: your 3-month window and the 50,000-point bonus work exactly as described below. If you made your first rewards payment after 31 July 2026, the current offer applies to you instead: Unlock an extra 20,000 Virgin Points.

Apron Rewards gives you a way to double your points on the way to Virgin. Pay bills and payroll with Rewards on, earn 50,000 Apron points within 3 months, and we'll match them when you transfer to Virgin Atlantic or Virgin Red: 100,000 Virgin Points in your account in total.

How it works

  1. You made your first rewards payment on or before 31 July 2026; that's what entered you into the offer. Earn 1 point per £1 (1.6% rate) or 2 points per £1 (2.9% rate)

  2. Reach 50,000 points within 3 months of that first payment; points add up across as many payments as you like

  3. Transfer all 50,000 points to Virgin Atlantic Flying Club or Virgin Red in a single transfer, and we'll add 50,000 bonus points to that transfer, so 100,000 points land in your Virgin account

Note: This bonus rewards the first person to make a rewards payment for a company. Each user can take part once, for one company.

Good to know

  • Your 3-month window started from your first rewards payment, not when you signed up

  • Only personal points count towards the 50,000; company points earned via Apron Card spend are separate

  • Only points earned from 23 June 2026 count towards the 50,000; points earned before the promotion started aren't included

  • To unlock the bonus, transfer your 50,000 points to Virgin in one single transfer; splitting them across multiple transfers won't trigger it

  • The bonus lands directly in your Virgin account at the point of transfer; it's not added to your Apron balance
