A new partnership between Sharesies and Air New Zealand’s Airpoints™ programme brings a unique opportunity for Kiwis to earn Airpoints Dollars while investing in their future.
This collaboration marks the first time the airline has partnered with a wealth management platform.
Through the partnership, Sharesies customers can now earn Airpoints Dollars for every $1,000 invested in Sharesies or on premiums paid for Sharesies car insurance.
With many Sharesies users being keen travellers, the chance to earn rewards while building long-term wealth is expected to be a popular feature.
Air New Zealand’s General Manager of Loyalty, Georgie Borowczyk, explained, “Sharesies is an innovative, homegrown brand passionate about supporting New Zealanders to build long-term wealth, and we’re thrilled to welcome them as our first partner in this space.”
She added that the partnership offers Airpoints members a new way to earn rewards, whether they’re saving for their next trip or their retirement.
Sharesies General Manager of Invest & Save, Scott Nixon, added that the ability to earn Airpoints Dollars from investments offers a fresh, appealing option for the platform’s users.
“It means Airpoints Dollars can now be earned at the supermarket and on the stock market,” Nixon said.
As part of the launch, Sharesies is offering a special promotion where customers can enter a prize draw to win a share of 20,000 Airpoints Dollars for every $5 they invest, auto-save, or save before 31 March 2025.
Moving forward, Sharesies customers can earn one Airpoint Dollar for every $1,000 they invest through either a $7 or $15 monthly plan, and one Airpoint Dollar for every $100 paid in Sharesies car insurance premiums.
This new partnership opens up a fresh avenue for Coasties to combine their financial goals with their travel aspirations, offering a way to make investments work for both their futures and their next adventure.
