**After updating the app today, I noticed something quite concerning with the Aurora experience.**

**Below my account balance, I received a “Low Balance – Kindly Maintain AMB” warning. When I tapped on it, the app showed that I need to add ₹20,000 to avoid charges, even though the actual minimum balance requirement is ₹5,000. It also mentions that I am using a Basic Savings Account.**

**I am an Aurora user, and Aurora users have not had a minimum balance requirement until now, as far as I understand. So, is this a bug introduced with the latest update, or has there been an actual policy change? If the requirement is ₹5,000, then asking users to add ₹20,000 to avoid charges is especially confusing.**

**I also have a question regarding the FD benefit shown in the app. It says that opening an FD can help avoid charges, but when I click on it, the FD is being opened with Federal Bank. Does this benefit apply only if I open an FD specifically with Federal Bank, or would an FD with another bank through the app also be eligible?**

**Aurora Milestone Rewards Need Better Optimization**

**The Taj voucher milestone structure is a good idea, but the rewards after ₹4 lakh spending don’t feel motivating enough.**

**For example:**

**- ₹2 lakh spend → ₹10,000 Taj voucher – Great benefit**

**- ₹4 lakh spend → ₹15,000 additional Taj voucher – Again, very good**

**- ₹10 lakh spend → ₹5,000 reward – Doesn’t feel proportional**

**- ₹18 lakh spend → ₹7,500 reward – Again, quite underwhelming considering the spending required**

**After ₹4 lakh, the reward structure feels significantly less rewarding and does not really motivate users to continue spending towards higher milestones. I genuinely feel these milestones could be redesigned to provide better incremental value and keep users motivated throughout the year.**

**Airport Lounge Benefit – One Small Improvement**

**The airport lounge benefit after ₹50,000 spending is a good feature, and receiving a claim link via email works. However, with so many emails in our inboxes, the email containing the claim link can easily get lost or overlooked.**

**It would be much more convenient if there were a way to claim or access the lounge benefit directly through the Jupiter app. This would make the experience smoother and ensure that users don’t miss a benefit simply because an email got buried under other messages.**

**My humble request to the President and the Jupiter team: please don’t let the Aurora experience deteriorate. Aurora is positioned as a higher-tier experience, and its benefits, communication, and overall user experience should reflect that.**

**Whenever major changes are planned—whether related to minimum balance requirements, charges, or benefits—it would be great if they could be communicated transparently through the community and email at least a month in advance. Sudden changes after an app update can create unnecessary confusion.**

**I genuinely like the Aurora concept and hope the team continues improving it. Please look into these points and consider the feedback. 🙏**
