Iconic clothing brand Bonds has been a staple in wardrobes across Australia for over 100 years. With its range of everyday essentials for the entire family, Bonds’ high-quality basics are a firm favourite for year-round comfort and style.
Delightfully, discounts and a host of other member benefits are yours to enjoy when you sign up for Bonds’ own loyalty program, Bonds & Me.
What is Bonds & Me?
Bonds & Me is the loyalty program of clothing retailer Bonds Australia. Members can take advantage of exclusive discounts and offers when they shop online or in-store with Bonds stores across the country.
What are the levels of Bonds & Me?
The Bonds loyalty program has three levels, determined by your spend over a 12-month rolling period. The key difference between levels is the discount offered on RRP, while the rest of the program’s benefits are applicable to all members.
- Bonds Lover – Spend up to $99.99 over 12 months to receive 10% off RRP.
- Bonds Fanatic – Spend between $100 and $299.99 over 12 months to receive 20% off RRP.
- Bonds Obsessive – Spend over $300 over 12 months to receive 30% off RRP.
Reaching a spend of $300 can seem like a task. But if you’re buying essentials for the family throughout the year then the highest level – and a sweet 30% discount – may be within reach.
Note that you won’t be able to use your Bonds & Me discount at Bonds Outlet stores, including the Bonds Outlet website.
What benefits do I get as a Bonds & Me member?
In addition to the discounts applicable to each level of the program, all Bonds & Me members receive the following benefits:
- Free shipping
- $10 birthday gift voucher
- Early access to shop for new products online
- Priority access to jump the queue on limited edition items
- Exclusive invitations to shopping events and sales
Members who have unlocked the Bonds Fanatic and Bonds Obsessive levels also receive trial products and surprise gifts and experiences.
How can I maximise my rewards when shopping online with Bonds Australia?
In addition to signing up for Bonds’ loyalty program, here are some more ways you can pocket rewards when stocking up on cosy essentials.
Earn Qantas Points when you shop with Bonds via Qantas Shopping
This tip requires no extra effort and nets you Qantas Frequent Flyer Points in the process. By clicking through to Bonds’ online store via Qantas Shopping, your purchase will be tracked and you’ll earn Qantas Points for each dollar spent. And because you’re shopping directly on the Bonds website, your order will count towards your spend for the Bonds & Me program.
Earn Velocity Points when you shop with Bonds via Velocity eStore
Similarly, clicking through to the Bonds website via Velocity’s e-Store will earn you Velocity Frequent Flyer Points. Your transaction will be attributed to your Bonds & Me program spend, so you’ll essentially double-dip on rewards.
Pay for your purchase with a points-earning credit card
This one is a bit of a triple-dip if you play your cards right. A points-earning credit card allows you to earn frequent flyer points on your transaction. Combine this with the frequent flyer points earned by clicking through Qantas’ or Velocity’s online shopping portals, plus the discount from your Bonds & Me level, and you’re in for some very snug rewards.
How do I sign up for Bonds & Me?
The Bonds & Me loyalty program is free to join, and you can sign up by creating an account on the Bonds website. All you’ll need is a valid email address to claim your discount and other rewards.
Summing up
The perks of the Bonds & Me program can be enjoyed from the get-go, so it’s worth signing up for even if you’re making your first purchase. The 10% discount off RRP – plus free shipping if you’re shopping online – is certainly beneficial. And with a very reasonable minimum spend requirement, it’s easy to unlock higher levels and greater discounts.
