Thanks to the new loyalty app Bink, we’re offering 10,000 Avios to today’s Advent Calendar winner.

That’s (more than) enough Avios to cover a return flight to much of Europe, with fees and taxes also capped at a very reasonable £35 with the Reward Flight Saver.

The Avios reward flight calculator is here.

The Bink app allows you to collect Avios on your ordinary High Street spend at participating retailers.  You simply register your payment card in the Bink app, pay with it and you will receive a pre-determined number of Avios per £1 spent.

As we’ve previously flagged, Bink is already live with Pizza Express, offering up to 6 Avios per £1, and a number of additional retailers are set to be added to the scheme shortly.

Important: how to enter

Please note that today’s competition is slightly different in how you enter, with a few steps required:

1) Enter your email address in the box below, as normal

2) Download the Bink app from the App Store or Google Play and create an account using the same email address as step (1)

3) Add at least one payment card and your Avios Travel rewards Programme membership number to your account. You can enter the number manually if you don’t have a physical avios card to scan

4) Link your avios.com account by following the prompt in the app and giving your surname.  This will allow Bink to display your current Avios balance.

If you are already signed up to Bink, you do not need to register again, but you must ensure that your entry on this page is with the same email address that you used to register for Bink, that you have at least one payment card and have linked your avios.com account number to your Bink account.

Today’s prize is also limited to UK residents.

If you do not follow the steps above, your entry to today’s prize draw will not be valid.
