As far as I'm aware yeah, you get 50% off membership upfront but that's it

Yup you get the upfront discount. But nothing after that linked to goals met.

Dumb question... Where does healthy food get credited? Onto smart shopper or bank account?

 

[diapason]

Bank account.

 

[Aharon]

Thx

Looking for a couple folks to invite on Vitality? Need 2-3 friends to invite to have 5 in total.

Even though it doesn't count, I make my goals every week without fail.

If you have a Discovery Card, that doubles as your Healthy Food card, and you can get the cashback paid into the card.

Wait, why do you NEED to invite 2-3 friends?? Are the bonus goals back??

There's no benefit sadly

It doesn't have to go into the Discoverycard. I control my own medical savings in a Capitec account and that is where I direct any cash backs. You nominate the account for the cash backs.

I need 5 friends just to get access to the leaderboards, nothing special.

Need an answer though, then I can email confirming I guess

I recently purchased a Huawei Color Band A2 Fitness Tracker on Takealot for a family member needing a step and HR tracker to get weekly points for Active Rewards. At R799 it was a good entry level price point and made sense as she has a Huawei phone.
I'm happy to report that it was pretty easy to set up via Huawei Health app and link to Discovery app and her timed activities (200 points for 30min+ 70% HR) are syncing nicely.

Probably the only negative about the A2 Color Band as a suitable Discovery HR tracker is that it doesn't come with GPS. If you want that in a Huawei device then look at the Band 3 Pro (R1,899 at SW) or the older Band 2 Pro (R1299 at SW) if they still have stock.

Good to here - first week I had to email through screenshots for allocations, sync is broken. When did your family member sync for first time?

The device was set up the first week of Feb and points started appearing on the dashboard thereafter. There is no manual sync option as far as I could see. Screenshot of 200 point activities:
