Master the Airtime Lingo

Confused by referrals? Not sure about surges? 😕

We get it. To clear things up, we’ve compiled a comprehensive list of all our terms. 

Here’s your ultimate guide.

Challenges  🏋️

Put simply, the monthly challenges give you a chance to earn a little extra bonus each month. Join your challenge and you’ll see there is a target number of transactions to aim for. Get a stamp for each spend and you’ll earn bonus rewards if you reach the target by the end of the month. Once the transactions have cleared, you’ll get your bonus. 💸

Join this month’s challenge in the app.

Share and Earn 🤝

Another way to earn extra rewards, this is our friend referral scheme. Share your unique referral code with a friend or relative and when they sign up and spend within a set period, you both receive a £2 bonus! Check the ‘Share and Earn’ tab in the app to find your code and the reward! 💰

Surge Referral ⚡

Sometimes we boost the amount of our referral bonus for a short period. Time it right and you could earn up to £100 for referring a friend! Turn on your Push Notifications to make sure you spot these, and look out for the ⚡ emoji.

Rewards Flash 🚀

Often happening over the weekend, a Rewards Flash is when a retailer’s rewards are increased for a limited time. Look out for the 🚀 emoji in our social media posts, marketing emails, Push Notifications and on the app. You’ve got to be quick!

Mystery Bonus 🔮

Mystery Referrals and Mystery Spend Bonuses will turn up in your inbox if you complete a successful friend referral. They range from ÂŁ1-ÂŁ100 (and sometimes up to ÂŁ500)! How lucky could you be?

Category Interests ✨

We group our retail partners into categories to help you navigate the app. Select your favourite categories and they’ll appear on your home screen. This will help us target your offers and make it easier for you to spot things relevant to your interests. A useful tip! 👍🏽

Head to the retailer pages to pick your favourite categories.

What is an Airtime promo code?

At Airtime we regularly release promo codes as an additional way to earn rewards and get you one step closer to a cheaper phone bill. How you’ll earn your bonus will vary from time to time. Sometimes you’ll be asked to add a card to earn your bonus, or you may have to spend at one of our 150+ retailers.
