dam so i should have converted my points yesterday , I had 1000 points so i should have converted them to Dischem vouchers as now i have lost value?

Seems like it. Lower rewards the same, higher rewards we lost out.

Except now it takes us longer to get enough miles too buy vouchers now

Discovery always lowers the rewards we get whenever they do the review of the rewards system

This benefit is live now. Seems like paying for your healthy food separately works, y’all.

Miles last for 5 years
So is miles not better in the long run?

Yeah will have sacrifice earning smart shopper points in the unhealthy stuff. But smart shopper is not worth much anyway

But isn't the credit card linked to smart shopper?

Yes but I can use my fnb card to pay

But I wont bother for 20 miles. My goal is 6 foods for 20 miles

Was the Miles on the healthy food purchases allocated immediately? (ie the 25% x value of healthy food purchases).

That's calculated at end of the month. With the healthy care etc

Why not get two smartshopper cards, one linked to discovery and the other not. They don't do any Fica type checking so you can add any details you want to the 2nd card. I still use the healthy food card because of this and have not linked Smartshopper to anything.

Yip, but when they started introducing all the changes to Vitality and the bank reqards to the market there was talk about earning the rewards in real time as you transact. Guess it is one step to far for now.

Yea I hope it’s close to real time. I can’t see why not.

No, unfortunately not yet. I was hoping for that too. They haven’t even allocated the 20 miles for achieving the healthy food goal yet.

So a minimum allocation of points (125) won't get you a Vida (150) anymore. Yup, Discovery screwed us on this new change.

They said that when you achieve a goal they will allocate 100dmiles plus the minimum of 25 per tile is 125. Will see on Wednesday

Anyone with only the life plan and vitality, is there anywhere where the Vitality Health Check is free?

It's free nowhere, discovery pays for 1 as a medical aid claim.

Yes that is the minimum you will earn. But if you look in the app right now, a vida or mugg bean costs 150 miles...

Well, by now we should all know that there is vast difference between what discovery says and reality.
