Vitality Active Rewards gives Vitality members weekly rewards for getting active. Now you can choose to get an Apple Watch Series SE GPS Aluminium Case Sport 40mm or Apple Watch Series 9 GPS Aluminium Case Sport 41mm and use it to achieve your weekly Vitality Active Rewards Exercise goals. If you have a qualifying Discovery Bank credit card and meet all four of your weekly Exercise goals in a month, your monthly penalty amount for your Apple Watch will be funded in full.
Your Discovery Bank credit card limit will need to be at least R15,000, and you will need an available balance of at least R5,000 after paying the R1,199 Apple Watch activation fee. From April, a minimum spend of R2,500 is required on your qualifying Discovery Bank credit card in the month before activation. If you activate the Apple Watch benefit within the first two months of joining Discovery Bank, there will not be a minimum spend requirement.
Vitality Active Rewards goal targets are not static: a fundamental design principle on which Vitality Active Rewards has been built is that the goals are personalised and dynamic. When members miss goals, the weekly goal will start to drop - to nudge them to get active. And when members achieve their goals, their goals will start to increase - to motivate them to get fitter.
Vitality 65+ members will get a fully funded Apple Watch with Vitality Active Rewards. We will refund your activation fee of R1,199 in full. This benefit is exclusive to Vitality members 65 years and older. Read more about Vitality 65+ benefits.
Download the latest version of the Discovery app for iPhone and activate Vitality Active Rewards with Apple Watch. Then visit your local iStore to pick up your Apple Watch.
Your Apple Watch will help you achieve your weekly Vitality Active Rewards goal by measuring your daily activity, allowing you to earn Vitality fitness points on the Discovery app.
Achieve your Vitality Active Rewards fitness goals, receive weekly rewards and fund your Apple Watch in full.
Reach your monthly Vitality Active Rewards exercise goals to fund your Apple Watch Series SE GPS or Apple Watch Series 9 GPS in full over 24 months.
