HDFC is Offering Free Apple Watch on Walking 15,000 Steps Daily: Here’s How

Highlights
  • You can get a free Apple Watch from HDFC Ergo by walking 15,000 steps for an entire year.
  • The offer is available on Apple Watch Series 10, Apple Watch Ultra, and other models.

Zopper and HDFC Ergo have partnered to launch the ‘India Gets Moving‘ initiative. Customers can get a free Apple Watch by enrolling into the Zopper Wellness Program and walking 15,000 steps daily. Users will have to complete their walking target for an entire year to claim the watch for free. Let’s look at the details of the offer.

Free Apple Watch on Walking 15,000 Steps Daily

This offer is available across all Apple Premium Resellers in India like Invent, Unicorn, and others. You will have to first purchase the Apple Watch and manually sign up for the Zopper Wellness Program. The enrolment is free of cost.

After successful signup, you will become an active member of HDFC Ergo’s insurance program, and Solvy Tech Solutions will be the master policyholder. You also have to sync their Apple Health Kit data with the HDFC Ergo app.

Apple Watch Ultra

If you complete the setup, you are eligible for up to a 100% refund of your Apple Watch value, depending on the number of steps you walk daily. If you complete 15,000 steps daily for one full year, you can claim a full refund on their watch. This offer is applicable to Apple Watch Series 10, Apple Watch Ultra, and several other models.

The system works by calculating the number of daily steps and crediting equivalent points for the day. Here’s how it works:

Daily Steps Points Earned
Up to 8,000 0
8,001 – 10,000 1
10,001 – 12,000 2
12,001 – 15,000 3
Above 15,000 4

The user needs to collect 110 points every month to get a full refund of their Apple Watch. The refund can also be claimed on a pro-rata basis by walking fewer steps. Here’s the calculation:

Points Collected in a Month Refund Percentage
Less than 30 0%
31 – 50 10%
51 – 70 30%
71 – 90 60%
91 – 110 80%
More than 110 100%

If you complete your target for 12 months, you will receive a full refund of your Apple Watch, effectively getting it for free. If you walk fewer steps, you can still claim as low as a 30% refund.

The India Gets Moving initiative by Zopper and HDFC Ergo aims to motivate Indians to walk daily and maintain a healthy lifestyle. The incentive of a free Apple Watch is a good opportunity for users to not just get Apple’s smartwatch, but also achieve their fitness goals by simply walking consistently for an entire year.

Note that the availability of this offer may vary by city and store. It is only available at offline stores of Apple Premium Resellers. Purchases made from the official Apple website, Amazon, Flipkart, or other retailers are not eligible for the offer.
