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

  • 5 Reward Points per Rs. 100 spent on Dinning and Movies
  • Get 1 Reward Points per Rs. 100 spent on other retail purchases
  • Milestone Benefits

Cons

  • Mostly Reliance SBI Card is mainly beneficial for those who make regular purchases from Reliance stores
  • No golf or cashback benefits
  • No airport lounge access
