HealthSaver card

Your shopping experience just got much faster with the HealthSaver card. You can use your card at a healthcare provider, pharmacy or even a vet in South Africa to access the funds in your HealthSaver+ account.

How to calculate your interest

Table to calculate your Multiply discount depending on your Active Dayz and Health Heart Score.

If you use the credit facility, we charge you a penalty of prime plus 6%. The rate that we charge will change if the prime interest rate changes. As the principal member, your Healthy Heart Score, and fitness assessment result can reduce the penalty you pay on credit to 0% - that’s right, you can borrow the money for free! Or your Healthy Heart Score and fitness assessment result could help you earn up to 10% in HealthSaver rewards on any contributions that you choose to make into your Momentum HealthSaver account.

What does HealthSaver pay for?

  • Services provided by a registered healthcare provider, provided they have a tariff code.
  • Medical claims that exceed available scheme benefits, such as specialised dentistry.
  • Treatment that is excluded by the scheme, such as cosmetic surgery.
  • Co-payments payable for hospitalisation, MRI and CT scans, specialised dentistry, or medication.
  • Fitness assessments at Multiply’s health professionals’ network. View the list of health professionals.

  • Buy a fitness device on the Multiply online shop directly from your HealthSaver account, using HealthSaver, HealthReturns Booster and credit facility, if you have it.
  • Multiply affiliated gym fees – if you submit your bank statement or an invoice to us showing that you paid your gym fees (you need to have joined this gym via Multiply), we will manually reimburse you from your Momentum HealthSaver account. View the list of gymsyou can use.
