You can also use this reward to fund an Apple Watch purchase.
AIA Vitality Apple Watch
What is the Apple Watch benefit?
- The $5 weekly reward for meeting your personalised Active Benefit targets can be allocated to pay off an Apple Watch over 2 years.
- However, be aware that if you miss your target in any week you will have to make a repayment!
How does this work?
How hard is it to meet the weekly targets?
- You can earn points towards your targets through daily step counts, gym visits or tracking your heart rate during workouts.
- The weekly targets are set based on your health status and physical activity levels.
- Importantly, the targets are dynamic and can change up or down from week to week.
- Hit your targets every week and your Apple Watch will cost you $0.
- Only hit your target 3 weeks each month and your Apple Watch will cost $264, 2 weeks $384 and 1 week $504. So there is definitely a monetary incentive to stay active!
How easy is it to reach Gold or Platinum status?
Reaching 20,000 or 30,000 points can be easier than you think.
Someone who is moderately active and completes the yearly health assessments could achieve the following:
- Online assessments – up to 5,500 points
- Health assessments – up to 8,000 points
- Gym visits – twice a week for 48 weeks – 9,600 points
- Steps target per day – twice a week for 48 weeks – 9,600 points
This is a total of 32,700 points in a year. Once Platinum status is reached you could receive 50% cashback on a Virgin flight to Los Angeles. In addition you could receive shopping vouchers of up to $650 a year, half price movie tickets and gym cashbacks.
