Airpoints Dollars allocation
- If you’re already a Tower customer, from 16 January 2017 you will start earning Airpoints Dollars from the next renewal date of your current policy/ies (after you have registered your Airpoints number with Tower). Airpoints Dollars will be allocated based on your premium payable at renewal. Airpoints Dollars will not be awarded retrospectively.
- Airpoints Dollars will be awarded to your Airpoints account within 30 days of the premium being paid (either in full for annual payment or first instalment if the payment method is otherwise) for both new purchases and renewal of policy/ies. You will only be awarded Airpoints Dollars for the current policy year if you registered your Airpoints number with Tower at least 6 weeks prior to the date on which your eligible policy renewed.
