Editor's Review
Pros
- Convert Reward Point into Health Credits
- Get 10% Instant Discount at Select Apollo Services
- Complimentary Apollo Gold Tier Membership
Cons
- The reward points earned can only be redeemed to avail services at Apollo Healthcare Centers and related stores
- The complimentary OneApollo Silver Tier Membership doesn’t add much value as it could be availed by simply enrolling for the program for a decent cost or even for free. If they had to give this benefit, they should have probably offered a Gold Tier Membership to the program, which otherwise requires the person to spend a high fee for it in a year
- No Golf/coaching sessions
Pros
- 10X Rewards on all spends done on your Birthday
- Reward points will never expire
- Free Road Side Assistance(RSA) worth Rs. 1,399
Cons
- No milestone benefits
- Airport Lounge access limited, depends on the bank’s current offers
- Lifestyle benefits including Complimentary round of Golf is limited, depends on the bank’s current offers
