HSBC enables Apple Pay for Singapore cardholders

Customers can enjoy $5 off every transaction as a kick off promo.

HSBC Singapore is treating its HSBC Visa and MasterCard credit cardholders with Apple Pay.

Customers using iPhone SE, iPhone 6 to higher versions, and Apple Watch can use Apple Pay in stores with Visa payWave or MasterCard contactless payment terminals in Singapore and overseas.

As a kick off treat, HSBC customers will be given $5 off for every Apple Pay transaction with their HSBC credit cards, with a minimum spend of $10 per transaction. This promo will be on until January 15 next year.

Commenting on the launch, HSBC Singapore head of retail banking and wealth management Anurag Mathur said going digital is part of the banks strategy as technology and mobility are changing how our customers do banking.

"Our findings show that awareness of contactless mobile payment is high amongst Singapore consumers (about 89%) and over half indicated interest to try this new payment method. We believe the security, privacy and convenience Apple Pay brings will appeal to all our customers, especially those who are also active users of our digital banking services,” he said.
