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
* Rewards on all spends
* Annual Rewards worth Rs. 11,500+
* Complimentary Lounge Access
Cons
* No golf benefits
* No airmiles
