HSBC rewards customers with Everyday Extras


  • HSBC customers can earn up to AUD600 a year with Everyday Extras⁵
  • Deposit AUD2,000 or more into an Everyday Global Account each month to earn 2% cashback on eligible tap and pay purchases under AUD100⁵
  • Receive an additional 0.40% p.a. bonus interest on the ongoing variable rate of the HSBC Serious Saver Account⁷



HSBC is building on the momentum of its award-winning Everyday Global Account – Australia’s first fee-free¹ multi-currency transaction account – with the launch of a new rewards program, Everyday Extras.

Since its launch in March 2018, HSBC estimates that Everyday Global Account customers have saved around AUD2.3m⁹ in overseas ATM or transaction fees by using the account’s Visa debit card to spend in up to 10 different currencies.

“We want to encourage more people to use HSBC as their primary bank, so we are building on our award-winning account with a new ongoing rewards program called Everyday Extras,” said Jessica Power, Head of Retail Banking and Wealth Management, HSBC Australia.

With Everyday Extras, HSBC customers who deposit AUD2,000 or more into their Everyday Global Accounts each month will receive:

  • 2% cashback when they tap and pay using Visa payWave, Apple Pay or Google Pay on eligible purchases under AUD100, up to a maximum AUD50 cashback each month.
  • An additional 0.40% bonus interest on the ongoing variable rate of their HSBC Serious Saver Accounts.

New customers to the bank will also receive a AUD100 bonus when they deposit AUD2,000 or more a month for three consecutive months⁶.

“Australians love rewards, but most rewards programs rely on offering the chance to earn points, which can be complicated or time-consuming to redeem. We wanted to offer customers a more immediate benefit,” Jessica said.

“Our Everyday Global Account is the future of daily transaction accounts, and we are now rewarding our customers for banking with us with a program that puts cash back into their pockets instantly.”
