10X opportunity on medicine orders

It has been there for quite some time, I have been ordering from Apollo247 for the last 4 months from their app, here in south delhi, the delivery is super fast usually within 2-4 hours and the best part is you get the correct & exact medicines. You don't get the 'other brands but same salt' where actually the offline chemist has a higher margin when you send your domestic help or driver to get the medicines for you.

Just yesterday, I ordered for my parents:

View attachment 17335

You do get 15% discount for sure if order value is higher than 1500, yesterday, I got an additional 300HC which is 1 HC = 1 Re but no voucher is allowed if paid using HCs.

The drawback is only 1 voucher is allowed per transaction.

My calculation of total discount in the above transaction is 46% discount on MRP, calculated as below:
Rs. 50 off on 2000 voucher
10x ER on 1950 = 1800/200 = 9 X 12 X 10x = 1080ER X 0.65 = Rs. 702 (I take 1 ER = 65paise, YMMV)
300HC = Rs. 228 (as 752/3159 X 100 = 24% discount, which I will not get on orders with HC)
So, total theoretical saving = 50 + 702 + 476 + 228 = Rs. 1456
or 1456/3159 X 100 = 46%.
This is pretty cool. We used to buy from wholesale medical stores. Even they would give max 25-30% off on MRP.
 
Let me know if sharing referral violates the forum code of conduct.. will delete the referral ... Not sure of coc so asking @RewardsAlert
I had not pondered upon the referral part till now.

Thanks for highlighting this.
I would like to request you and all other members to kindly avoid the referral thing because, we are only adding quality members here. Already they are annoyed by newly introduced ads on TF. If referrals also start coming then this group will get flooded with similar messages.

Let's avoid self promotion and discuss about some quality stuff that can benefit all.
If you still want to share referral, you can continue to do this in DM or public posts.

I appreciate the efforts of some members to take initiative of creating new threads and posts. Please contribute in the same way if possible.
That's all, Thanks! 👍
 
Additional info for Apollo circle membership.. if you have BPCl connection... Install the BPCL app to claim free Apollo circle membership.. if you are already a member this method extends the validity.
just an update to this :
it gives Apollo circle membership for free even if you do not have any BPCL relationship.
just installl the BPCL app, and login with mobile number, nothing else, it directly show the option banner.

any one having circle membership and using these vouchers, can tell me what exactly reward value we get in this case for 1000rs worth of medicine?

Circle benefit is of not much use if you are ordering above Rs.1000... Circle benefit gives free delivery above Rs.150 along with 5% cashback as health credits... What i do is order higher value items with pharma15 coupon and gyftr voucher... Use the health credits received for this order to make one more order after accumulation of 150 health credits... Health credits have an expiration.. so we have to consume before that ..

Is there any tracking issue when buying GV from giftedge? I mean is it possible, that if I buy a 10X Edge Reward GV, but I get only base rewards, because Axis was not able to track my purchase ?
 
just a word of caution with 10X and all the theoretical high % returns, as you know Axis is selling Magnus like hot cakes so devaluation is imminent, I mean who are we kidding they can't sustain all this. And business wise, the obvious devaluation will happen on the redemption side and not the earnings side since we've been promised 10X on the day of transaction, Axis just needs to give a month's notice (thanks to RBI) and everyone who is in this 3 month window will be affected, this includes accelerated points via Gyftr or maybe even those milestone points which arrive after 3 months. I don't mean to demotivate anyone, but I've thought long and hard to conclude this, Axis had this all planned from Day 1 and seems the very reason why devaluation will be on the redemption side, sorry if I swayed away from the topic
 
Not the case with Apollo.. i have used coupon Pharma15 and voucher both on same order
True for Netmeds (as mentioned in my post) but NOT true for Apollo.
Did you face this issue in Apollo24/7 yourself? As others have mentioned, it works. You should not post this without confirming

I faced this issue myself. I had also tweeted this for an Apollo voucher related tweet. This was back in Feb. Now they have probably allowed it.

Let’s hope Axis will grandfather the old conversion rates for points earned before the new rule.

HDFC does that. HDFC cut off ties with Amazon on the smartbuy portal, meaning no 5x on amazon purchases. However, I continued to get 5x on 2 MacBooks I bought on EMI before the severance of ties (got the same till emi got over a few months ago)

fingers crossed really

They can't do that for the txns made basis an agreement of 10X. Their deliveries of ER are also basis that agreement only. Any changes will be applicable only the new txns which are made under new terms of agreement.
Otherwise it will breach of contract/agreement. Hope it clarifies.

But the devaluation can happen anytime as they have not guaranteed anything beyond what is applicable today. If they has like 0.2 per point, they have to honour for all the points accrued till the new terms are announced.
