Free Samsonite Spinner Luggage or S$150 Cashback for NEW HSBC Credit Card Applications (2023)

There is currently a very enticing promotion where you can receive a brand new Samsonite Zeltus Spinner 69cm Exp (worth S$680) or S$150 cashback. New HSBC credit cardholders (those who have not held an HSBC card in the past 12 months) who apply for a credit card and get approved can choose to receive one of the abovementioned gifts upon spending S$1,000 in eligible spends by the end of the following calendar month after the card is opened. Existing HSBC cardholders will receive S$50 cashback. This promotion is valid if you sign up until 31st December 2023 11:59pm.

Annual fee is waived for the first year for all the cards listed below except for the HSBC Revolution Card which has its annual fee waived perpetually and for the HSBC TravelOne Card which requires payment of annual fee to receive the sign-up miles. For the other cards, HSBC usually waives the annual fee for succeeding years as long as you actively use the card but if not, you can always cancel to avoid paying the annual fee. You can even cancel the credit card after receiving the sign-up gift or cash reward if you wish.

Once your card is approved, remember to spend at least S$1,000 by the end of the month following card account opening date in order to receive the gift or cash reward. You will get an email within 120 to 150 days with instructions on how to claim your gift. If you are looking for ways to spend S$1,000 within a month, there’s that time-honored method of buying vouchers from NTUC Fairprice and paying for it with your credit card.

Here are the HSBC cards that qualify for the promotion:
