Bajaj Prime membership is now available free for a year. Earlier, it used to cost ₹599-699, but now it is being given away for free, and on top of that, you will also get an Amazon gift voucher worth ₹500 as a joining reward (the offer may be user-specific).

If you’re a non-prime user or have never used it before, you might be checking whether this Bajaj Prime membership is actually worth it or not.

With this membership, you’ll get assured cashback on bill payments, shopping, fuel stations, and also free OTT access. These are the benefits they highlight everywhere.

Let’s talk about the benefits, and then we’ll try to understand whether it’s really worth it or not.
And if you have never used this platform, it will help you understand what it is. You already know the app’s user experience is not very good at all.

Bajaj Prime Membership

The Benefits

If you’re mainly concerned about benefits, then here’s what the membership offers:

1. Bajaj Prime Membership Benefits

Based on their claims, Bajaj Prime Membership is a paid subscription (₹699) that offers multiple perks:

Main Benefits:

• 10% cashback on bill payments like electricity, gas, DTH, mobile recharge
  (up to ₹50 per transaction, 4 times per month)
• 10% cashback on shopping using Bajaj EMI card on Amazon, Flipkart, and other platforms
• 10% discount on fuel at HPCL and BPCL
• Discounts on domestic and international flight bookings
• Free OTT subscriptions, including Sony Liv and around 12 more platforms

With the enticing welcome rewards, they are trying to pull more users in by offering free membership and a free Amazon gift voucher. You’re getting the Rs 500 voucher along with the benefits.

Recently, a lot of users have shared real experiences with this membership, which I have collected from different sources, and they give you a clear overview of how the application behaves.

What Bajaj Promises 

• 10% cashback on recharges and bill payments (up to ₹500/month)
• 10% cashback on Zomato, Ajio, etc. (again ₹500/month limit)
• Total claimed value: ₹12,000 cashback per year
• Access to 25+ OTT platforms
• And since this is available to everyone (unlike credit cards), a lot of users compare it with Airtel Axis Bank card and think this gives better value.

What You Should Know

• OTT subscription not activating: For many users, the OTT subscription was never activated, even after weeks and months.
• Cashback not credited: Many users did recharge and bill payments, but the cashback they were expecting just never showed up. So this might make you feel that you’re going to get all these benefits, but after enrolling, you might not receive them on time.
• No customer support: Now, let’s say you’re stuck somewhere or want to ask something about your welcome benefits, there is no proper customer support.
• App UI and performance is very bad: The app keeps crashing, closing suddenly, or just lagging. It feels like you will have a negative experience even while performing basic actions.

• App closes randomly
• App crashes during payments
• UI feels very outdated
• Sometimes, even registrations don’t complete properly

So overall, the UI and app pebajarformance is something almost every user has complained about.

Is It Still Worth It?

Well, since the membership is free right now, you are not losing anything. If you get even a small cashback on Zomato or bill payments or even one OTT benefit, then it’s still a plus for you. But here’s the thing, the platform has a lot of negativity around it, whether it’s:

• App issues
• Cashback not being transparent
• Failed payments
• Logins getting stuck
• No support to resolve problems

So yes, you can check it out since it’s free, but just be prepared that everything might not work smoothly. If the membership was paid, then I would say think twice. But since it’s free, you can try it and see.
