About collecting Avios and rewards

You’ll collect Avios on new purchases, but not on balance transfers, money transfers and transactions that make up your cash balance. These include cash withdrawals, wire transfers and buying currency. You won’t collect Avios for any transactions that are later returned or refunded. You also need to keep to the terms and conditions of your account and stay within your credit limit. You can find out more about collecting and spending Avios, including which purchases are eligible.
When you apply for a Barclaycard Avios card, you can either link it to an existing British Airways Executive Club membership or we’ll set one up for you. Then we’ll transfer the Avios you collect with us to your British Airways Executive Club account each month. You can check your latest Avios balance in your Barclaycard or Barclays app⁵. Take a look at the terms and conditions of the British Airways Executive Club and check the British Airways privacy policy before you apply.
