HSBC’s two most attractive credit cards for medium-to-high income earners in Hong Kong are the HSBC Visa Signature Card and the HSBC Visa Platinum Card. But what’s the difference and which is better?
Both cards are structured similarly in terms of benefits, but the HSBC Visa Signature Card has a higher income requirement (HK$480,000), as well as higher rewards, earn rate (9X RewardCash in the category of your choice).
The HSBC Visa Platinum Card, on the other hand, has a much lower income requirement (HK$150,000) but also a lower earn rate for RewardCash (6X in the category of your choice).
So if you qualify for it, the HSBC Visa Signature is a much better choice. It also comes with a few extra perks such as free airport lounge access with upon spending HK$1,500, 1-for-1 movie tickets, and a one-time 1-for-1 buffet dinner at Grand Hyatt Hong Kong.
