How I Get $60 Cash Credit Rewards From HSBC Account Opening

I would like to share the recent promotion from HSBC on their Everyday Global Account (EGA) personal banking account opening.  

I will share with you the process I gone through to qualify for the rewards. 

What you need to do in order to qualify for their “Welcome Reward” of $40 cash credits? 

1. Open an Everyday Global Account.
   What I learned was if you are New To Bank Customer, you may open the account directly from their website. For my case, which I already holding their Credit Card, I was not able to apply directly from their website and I will need to head down to one of their nearest branch.
2. Download and successfully log in to HSBC Singapore mobile banking app.
3. Remember to opt-in for their marketing communications.
4. Deposit fresh funds of at least $5,000 every month in a single transaction into your Everyday Global Account for at least 2 consecutive months.
