Not sure if this was covered in the Captains posts

 

"We are excited to let you know that as of 3 October 2020, Vitality Health and Vitality Drive members who are also qualifying Discovery Bank clients with Vitality Money can now earn even more Discovery Miles when getting active and driving well. You can earn up to 1 Discovery Mile for every 1 Vitality Health fitness or Vitality Drive point you earn weekly.

 

What this means is that you could earn over 60 000 Discovery Miles a year for getting active and driving well, weekly."

but as with most of their rewards to get anything worthwhile you need to have the credit card.

I didn't cover that as I don't reckon it's a massive benefit for most people.

Fair enough, but 52000 miles (or R5200 per year) for doing something I do anyway is not to be sneezed at (especially in COVID times )

Ja, I agree. It's just that not many people would get that full benefit out, and the cost implications of getting to the level that you'd be able to enjoy those rewards, if you're not a qualifying member already, are potentially quite high.

I'm hoping this is bad wording... but will the new Active Gear only allow for Nike shoes (or sportswear)? Hoping this was merely indicating the inclusion of Nike stores and that SWH/TotalSports simply got hooked into the sentence.

No, you're reading it incorrectly / it's bad wording. Nike concept stores now in the pot, too.

Read that letter they sent today and you'll see what I mean by bad wording!   Appreciate the confirmation, though! 

Here it is...(and the bold is as they had it!)
