VitalityHealth and VitalityLife are trading names of Vitality Corporate Services Limited. Vitality is the provider of the Active Reward benefit for Vitality members and for the purposes of this offer, Vitality is acting as credit broker only and not a lender.

Financial status
You’ll qualify for the Vitality American Express Credit Card if you are 18 years or over and you pass a credit check. Final eligibility is also subject to financial circumstances and status.

You must have a permanent UK home address, a current UK bank or building society account, and no history of bad debt.

Cards per household
Each household can take out one Vitality American Express Credit Card. If there are many insured members in the household, any qualifying adult member can take out the Card.

If two adults each have an individual Plan, but also have a joint Plan, they can each take out a Card in their own right.

Healthy cashback booster
You need to complete your Health Profile in our Member app before applying for a Card.

The level of healthy cashback booster you earn will depend on:
• how many qualifying plans you have, and
• the activity points you earn from getting active.

You need to earn between 40 and 160 points each month to get rewarded with a healthy cashback booster.

We’ll set your healthy cashback booster rate based on the activity points you earned two months prior.

From time to time we may change the way we award points for tracking physical activity. But, you’ll always be able to claim a healthy cashback booster by getting active.

You Plan(s) must be active and your premiums up to date for your healthy cashback booster to be paid.

Card impacts if you cancel or lapse your Plan(s)
If you cancel or lapse your plan, your Card will continue with the Lender under the terms of that agreement.

From that point, you will only be able to earn American Express cashback on purchases. You will also lose any healthy cashback booster earned in the current Card year that has been earned, but not yet been applied, to your Card Account as an annual credit.

If you cancel or lapse one qualifying Plan, you will lose your Vitality Pink boosted rates. Your healthy cashback rate will revert to those applicable for one qualifying plan.
We calculate your healthy cashback booster based on:
• how many qualifying plans you have; and
• how many activity points you earn each month, using a Vitality-compatible device.

Each month’s healthy cashback booster rate is based on the activity points earned two months prior. So you won’t earn a healthy cashback booster until the start of the third calendar month after you activate the benefit with Vitality.

You can earn a healthy cashback booster on the first £1,000 of purchases each month. You’ll earn no cashback booster on purchases under £4, when your rate is 0.25%.
To qualify for this offer, you will need to have:

• Been approved for a Card, and
• Spent at least £2,000 on the Card within the first three months of your Cardmembership. Cardmembership starts from Card approval.

American Express will then pay cashback on your Card anniversary. This is the month after your previous 12 months' purchases.
How many Vitality American Express Credit Cards can I have?
You can only have one Vitality American Express Credit Card.

What if I already have an American Express Credit Card?
If you already have another American Express Credit Card, you can still apply for a Vitality American Express Credit Card.

Can I add Supplementary Cards for other members of my family?
Yes, you can apply for a Supplementary Card at any time. Find out more about Supplementary Cards.

What American Express cashback rate can I get on purchases?
Spend on your Card to get the following American Express cashback within your Cardmembership year:

• Spend £0 to £10,000 and get 0.5% on purchases in the proceeding 12 months
• Spend over £10,000 and get 1% cashback on purchases in the proceeding 12 months.
 
 The more purchases you make on your Card, the more cashback you can earn. As long as you spend at least £3,000 within the Card membership year, you’ll be eligible to receive your cashback.
