Should you convert Flybuys to Velocity?
The break-even is 1c
Flybuys and Everyday Rewards both convert 2:1. Give up $10 off, get 1,000 airline points — so converting only wins if you'll get more than 1c out of each Velocity or Qantas Point.
Flights clear it
Economy reward seats typically return 1c–2.6c a point, business far more. If you'll actually fly with them, converting can beat the $10 off — by a long way in a premium cabin.
Gift cards don't
Airline gift cards and stores return 0.4c–0.56c a point. Convert just to buy a gift card and you've roughly halved what your points were worth. Take the $10 off instead.
It's one-way
Neither transfer can be reversed. If you're not sure you'll fly, leave the points where they are — you can always convert later, but you can't convert back.

Should I convert Flybuys to Velocity?
Only if you'll spend the Velocity Points on flights. The transfer is 2:1, so 2,000 points is either $10 off or 1,000 Velocity Points — converting only wins if you get more than 1c per Velocity Point. Economy reward seats (1c–2c) usually clear that; gift cards (0.5c–0.56c) never do, so converting to buy gift cards roughly halves your points' value. Transfers can't be reversed.
