Hang Seng Bank (‘Hang Seng’) launched its Travel+ Visa Signature Card, the first travel-themed credit card designed to enrich both overseas and local spending experiences. This card offered an array of attractive rebates on foreign currency expenditures and local dining and transportation, redefining the rewards landscape for travel-savvy customers.
Hang Seng customers using the Travel+ Visa Signature Card enjoyed up to a 7% +FUN Dollars rebate on foreign currency spending in top destinations favored by Hong Kong travelers, including Japan, Korea, Thailand, Singapore, and Australia. Additionally, expenditures in the mainland and other international locations, as well as local transportation spending, involving KMB, Citybus, LWB, MTR, tram, Star Ferry, and dining in the city earned up to a 5% rebate, enhancing everyday convenience and enjoyment.
The +FUN Dollars earned could be instantly used at over 150,000 online and offline +FUN Spots. These included various travel websites, allowing customers to use +FUN Dollars to directly purchase air tickets. Customers had the flexibility to choose various types of air tickets and flights, as well as their preferred departure and return dates. They could also use +FUN Dollars to book hotels, rent cars for overseas trips, and even pre-order attraction tickets and travel activities. Additionally, +FUN Dollars could be used to offset Hang Seng credit card bills, offering flexibility and value to cardholders.
Rannie Lee, Head of Wealth and Personal Banking at Hang Seng, said, “We’re pleased to offer the first travel-themed credit card to our customers with a unique market positioning. We understand that Hong Kong people love travelling and what they need is a one-stop and multi-faceted rewards convenience. The Travel+ Visa Signature Card is more than just a mere tool to maximise rewards and convenience for our customers’ spending both abroad and at home. It also enables customers to directly use rewards for purchasing air tickets and hotel accommodations, truly fulfilling their travel dream of ‘fly whenever you want’.”
In celebration of the card’s launch, Hang Seng collaborated with prominent travel influencers including Sabrina Ng, SiuC, Chris Leung Yin Chung, and Kiki&May, who shared their travel and spending tips in a specially produced advertisement. The videos were available on Hang Seng’s official YouTube channel (https://youtu.be/mNwuEHTwnWg). From 17 June 2024 until 31 December 2024, new cardholders could avail themselves of exclusive welcome offers, including the chance to earn up to $700 +FUN Dollars.
