Well, get ready for some spoils as divvy just hit bank a/c.
Divie in the bank but still not showing up in Sharesight. Anyone else having the same issue ? Looks like it will needs to be entered manually.
brent oil fallen $7 last week , likely to fall further so will be beneficial for z going forward
My sharesight added....
No more AA Smartfuel loyalty program. Not Z's decision either (AA ended the contract). I feel like that will affect sales at Caltex. What's everyone's thoughts on this?
I think it could have a very small effect. That said N.Z. 's biggest loyalty program Airpoints has just been rolled out at Z and will replace the AA smartfuel program at Caltex so its probably swings and roundabouts and it'll come out close to even.
Obvious there is heating competition between the loyalty programs. Z has been offering the odd day with 3x or 4x Airpoints which I've been taking advantage of. Almost a shame my hybrid doesn't use more petrol to get bigger advantage of the Airpoints offers :-)
Oh well, them is the breaks :-)
For a customer the AA Smartfuel programme is still better. I have ran the numbers. AA Smartfuel's 10c promo effectively becomes 20c under the Z Energy loyalty.
AirNZ Points
2 months under the AA programme, say 20L each time 2x a week that is 16x visits. Obtains $3.20 Airpoints. 3x promo is $10. (Standard is $1APD per 100L of fuel).
Assume every time 10c off, that means 16x visits each 20L = $32.
OTOH the AA programme gets $80.
This is understated since I kept the maths simple ie assuming petrol still is $2.00. Ie $40 fill BP vs AirNZ programme's 20L required.
Sorry I don't follow. Typically the AA rewards gives 6 cpl off. 16 visits for anyone who can be bothered working the system to the extreme, (gosh that's a lot of visits in 2 months) gives 16 x 6 cps = 96 cpl discount at final visit, (assuming you accumulate rewards every visit) but this is limited to 50 L of fuel = $48. I could be wrong but I'm not sure very many people would bother visiting twice a week every week just to earn another $16 in rewards, (assuming you've done your maths right with the airpoints system)
Status with Air NZ is determined by status points earned, not Airpoints dollars earned. The only way to gain status points is to actually fly Air NZ (or an applicable partner airline) or use a credit card that provides you with status points as rewards alongside Airpoints dollars. Filling up on petrol just gets you Airpoints dollars and no status points.
