Apollo SBI SELECT Credit Card

Apollo 24|7 and SBI Card have collaborated for the second time to introduce the new Apollo SBI Select Credit Card, following the discontinuation of their previous co-branded offering. Designed especially for health and fitness enthusiasts, this credit card brings a host of wellness-focused benefits. Cardholders can enjoy up to 25% cashback on medicine purchases made through Apollo 24|7, due to the card reward rate and integrated benefit of  Apollo Circle membership. Users earn 10 Reward Points per ₹100 spent on Apollo 24|7 and Apollo Pharmacy, and 2 Reward Points per ₹100 spent on dining, movies, entertainment, and travel. These Reward Points can be redeemed only as Health Credits for Apollo spends.

Beyond its medical and wellness advantages, the Apollo SBI Select Credit Card also offers lifestyle perks such as complimentary domestic airport lounge access and a free Priority Pass membership. With an affordable annual fee of ₹1,499, the card offsets its cost through a ₹1,500 welcome voucher and renewal benefits that include an annual health check-up. Combining health, rewards, and travel privileges, this card is a valuable addition to every Indian household.
