HSBC Visa Infinite Cardholders can continue enjoying step-up earn rates for a limited time, but unfortunately it's not as generous as what we were hoping for.
HSBC cardholders who paid their Mileage Programme annual fee from June 2023 onwards will receive a full refund, as the bank transitions to its new rewards platform.
From 20 May 2024, the HSBC Visa Infinite will end its step-up earn rate of 1.25/2.25 mpd on local/overseas spend. The question is: what's the replacement?
HSBC cardholders will be able to pool their points and enjoy 21 airline and hotel transfer partners from 28 May 2024, with a waiver of conversion fees till January 2025.
From 2 May 2024, HSBC EGA customers no longer have a free choice of cards for 1% cashback on spend, though the feared exclusion for credit card GIRO payments has not come to pass.
