ANA Travel Fair 2023 offers Rp 4 million cashback for trips to Japan

Share this article, change size.

SBC Indonesia, in collaboration with All Nippon Airways (ANA), launched the HSBC-ANA Travel Fair on Thursday, offering special rates on ANA’s international routest exclusively for HSBC customers.

The three-day fair at the Laguna Atrium at Central Park Mall in West Jakarta runs until Aug. 6.

During the fair, HSBC Premier customers can book flights to Japan at exclusive prices starting from Rp 6.5 million (US$395.47). They can also take advantage of cashback promotions of up to Rp 4 million (US$263.65) for flights to Japan, the United States and Canada.

The popularity and success of the HSBC-ANA Travel Fair was evident from the many visitors who queued to sign register as new HSBC and HSBC Premier customers.

The event also featured actor Ringgo Agus Rahman and actress Sabai Morscheck, who enjoy traveling for both leisure and business, especially to Japan. Ringgo and Sabai added that they had been eagerly awaiting the HSBC-ANA promotional offerings and couldn’t wait to take advantage of the exclusive rates to holiday in Japan at the end of the year.

HSBC Indonesia also launched its Point Surprise program during the travel fair. Through the program, customers can trade 1 loyalty point from their HSBC credit card toward purchasing travel products from global Japanese lifestyle brand Uniqlo.

Lanny Hendra, Director of Wealth and Personal Banking at HSBC Indonesia, said customers who purchased tickets during the HSBC-ANA Travel Fair using their HSBC credit cards would earn 20x reward points while in their destination country.

"HSBC Indonesia is committed to continuing to innovate in providing the best service for HSBC Premier customers, which includes the three main pillars of wealth management, lifestyle and international education,” she said Lanny.

“Specifically for the lifestyle pillar, we are partnering with ANA, the number one premium airline in Japan, to provide end-to-end services from purchasing tickets to predeparture preparations and during travel," she added.

An additional benefit that Premier HSBC customers could enjoy was that ANA’s flights to the US and Canada included a stopover in Japan. This would offer high comfort for people traveling over long distances, especially with a family, Lanny said. Premier members could also make use of the complimentary airport transfer service while traveling to overseas destinations and flying back home.

Japan is among the top destinations among Indonesians, which include HSBC Premier customers. According to ANA data, around 98,000 Indonesians flew to Japan and the US in the first half of 2023, an increase of 129 percent over the same period in 2019. Meanwhile, data from Statista showed that eating Japanese food, shopping and taking in the sights were common activities among Indonesian visitors to Japan.

“It feels like home! Truly a service with a heart .. Keep it up!”

Shan D., Tripadvisor

“Stayed at the Discovery Primea Makati for two nights in May in their Two Bedroom Primea Suite. This is truly an above and beyond hotel which after its soft launch I would be surprised doesn’t get fully booked straight away! Will now always make the Discovery Primea my hotel choice in Manila. Will be back next year!”

Matthew B., Tripadvisor

“I have stayed at many hotels in the City and have by far enjoyed this stay the most. From the moment I arrived I was greeted by warm and friendly staff who were very accommodating. The stand out for me is the apartment style facilities. A home away from home. Spacious rooms and modern appliances with a vast array of Chef inspired menu options. Will be back soon.”

Stephen W., Tripadvisor

“A truly exceptional hotel. Very friendly and accomodating personnel, luscious food to die for, exceptional facilities with an exceptional view of BGC, Makati and Ortigas Skyline, and top notch accessibility. We’ll be back for sure.”

Rivzkaydet, Tripadvisor

Great ambiance, service and food. From the lobby to our room, the experience was beyond words could describe. Kudos especially to housekeeping for the upkeep of the room. I would definitely recommend this hotel chain to my family and friends.

Review: HSBC TravelOne Card

The HSBC TravelOne Card is an excellent general spending card that's missing one important puzzle piece: points pooling.

Here’s The MileLion’s review of the HSBC TravelOne Card, which shook up the miles game when it launched back in May this year with 12 transfer partners, instant, free conversions, a generous lounge benefit and a competitive sign-up bonus. Feature-wise, it’s as strong a general spending card as you could hope for. 

And there’s more still to come. That transfer partner list, already the longest in Singapore, is set to grow to more than 20 by the end of 2023. Points pooling is in the pipeline. The TravelOne Card is not the finished article yet, but it’s moving in the right direction.

If nothing else, it’s at least worth hopping onboard for the first year.

Overview: HSBC TravelOne Card

Let’s start this review by looking at the key features of the HSBC TravelOne Card.

Fun fact: the HBSC TravelOne Card continues the trend towards “portrait-style” credit cards, designed vertically instead of horizontally. This supposedly allows for a smoother user experience, as it mimics how customers typically handle their cards when they tap to pay or dip the card into a chip reader. It’s even got a notch at the bottom, a thoughtful touch that’s designed as an accessibility feature for the visually-impaired (so they know which end they insert into the card reader).

But Apple and Google Pay wallets don’t support vertical card faces, so if you add it to your phone you’ll see the secondary design that HSBC created, in landscape.

Despite its silver Mastercard logo, do note that the HSBC TravelOne Card is a World Mastercard and not a World Elite Mastercard.

How much must I earn to qualify for a HSBC TravelOne Card

The HSBC TravelOne Card has an income requirement of S$30,000 p.a. , the MAS-mandated minimum to hold a credit card. 

If you do not meet the minimum income requirement, you may apply for a secured version of this card by depositing at least S$10,000 in a fixed deposit account. The application form can be found here.

How much is the HSBC TravelOne Card’s annual fee? 

The HSBC TravelOne Card has an annual fee of S$194.40 for principal cardholders. At the moment, HSBC is not offering a first year fee waiver; you must pay the annual fee (which also lets you enjoy the 20,000 miles sign-up bonus). 

In subsequent years, the annual fee can be waived with a minimum spend of S$25,000 in a membership year. As this is a new credit card, I can’t say at the moment whether HSBC will strictly enforce this- though I think it’d be very hard for them to do so, given that most other competitors offer fee waivers fairly easily. 

All supplementary cards are free for life.

What sign-up bonus or gifts are available?

From 1 September to 31 December 2023 , customers who apply for a HSBC TravelOne Card will enjoy 20,000 bonus miles (in the form of 50,000 HSBC points) when they:

• Pay the annual fee of S$194.40
• Spend at least S$1,000 by the end of the month following approval
• Opt-in for marketing communications during the sign-up (don’t forget this step- it’s just as important as the first two)

This offer is valid for both new and existing HSBC cardholders. 

The qualifying spending period is as follows:

20,000 miles for S$1,000 spend and a S$194.40 annual fee is a tidy return; put it another way, you’re paying about 0.97 cents per mile (S$194.40/20,000 miles), which is a great price especially when you factor in transfer partner variety. 

The terms and conditions for the HSBC offer can be found here.

How many miles do I earn?

Sgd/fcy spend.

HSBC TravelOne Card cardholders will earn:

• 3X HSBC points per S$1 (1.2 mpd)  on local spend
• 6X HSBC points per S$1 (2.4 mpd)  on foreign currency spend

These are among the highest earn rates for any general spending card in Singapore, especially when you consider HSBC’s relatively favourable rounding policy (more on that below).

All FCY transactions are subject to a 3.25% fee, which is par the course for the market.

With a 2.4 mpd earn rate and a 3.25% FCY fee, using the HSBC TravelOne Card overseas represents buying miles at 1.35 cents apiece.

There is also the option of pairing the HSBC TravelOne Card with Amaze in order to enjoy better conversion rates, but you’ll earn 1.2 mpd instead of 2.4 mpd in that case since transactions will be converted into SGD. 

Bonus Spend

Unfortunately, the HSBC TravelOne Card does not have a bonus earn category. To be fair, not all general spending cards offer one, but it’s a particular problem for the TravelOne because points don’t pool.

This means that you can’t take advantage of the HSBC Revolution ’s excellent 4 mpd earn rate, nor can the HSBC Revolution ’s points be used for the TravelOne’s new transfer partners. 

HSBC says they’re working on adding points pooling, but until they do, your earn rates will be relatively underpowered compared to other 4-6 mpd earning specialised spending cards. 

When are HSBC Rewards Points credited?

HSBC Rewards Points are credited when the transactions posts, usually in 1-3 days.

How are HSBC Rewards Points calculated?

Here’s how you can work out the HSBC Rewards Points earned on your HSBC TravelOne Card.

The minimum spend required to earn points is S$0.25 (SGD) and S$0.10 (FCY) respectively.

This means that the HSBC TravelOne Card (1.2 mpd) can outperform the ostensibly higher earning UOB PRVI Miles Card (1.4 mpd) in certain circumstances, depending on transaction size. 

If you’re an Excel geek, here’s the formulas you need to calculate points: 

HSBC previously only displayed total points balances, but with the launch of the TravelOne Card they’re now providing transaction-level points breakdowns. 

To view this, login to the HSBC mobile app and tap on your HSBC TravelOne Credit Card > View More > Redeem Your Points

On the next screen, tap ‘Show points history’, and you’ll see a breakdown of points earned per transaction. 

For the full list of formulas that banks use to calculate credit card points, do refer to these articles:

• General Spending Cards
• Specialised Spending Cards

What transactions aren’t eligible for HSBC Rewards Points?

A full list of transactions that do not earn HSBC Points can be found in the T&Cs (at Point 3).

I’ve highlighted a few noteworthy categories below:

• Charitable Donations
• Government Services 
• GrabPay top-ups
• Professional services provides (e.g. Google & Facebook Ads, AWS)
• Real Estate Agents & Managers

HSBC also excludes CardUp, ipaymy and RentHero transactions from earning points. In a way, this does compound the lack of a bonus category problem, since you can’t even buy additional TravelOne points via these payments services if you were so inclined. 

What do I need to know about HSBC Rewards Points?

HSBC Points expire at the end of 37 months  following the time they were earned.

For example, any points awarded in August 2022 will expire on 30 September 2025.

HSBC Points do not pool across cards. If you have 10,000 HSBC Points on the HSBC TravelOne Card, and 15,000 HSBC Points on the HSBC Revolution Card, for example, you won’t be able to combine the two when redeeming.

However, HSBC tells me that points pooling is on the roadmap, so hopefully this will no longer be the case soon.

In the meantime, since points do not pool, you will have to transfer all your HSBC Points before cancelling the HSBC TravelOne Card, or else forfeit them.

Transfer Partners & Fees

The HSBC TravelOne Card stole a march on Citibank when it launched with 12 airline and hotel partners, replacing them as the bank with the most transfer partners in Singapore.

In addition to KrisFlyer and Asia Miles, there’s also opportunities to leverage sweet spots with British Airways Executive Club (and Qatar Privilege Club by extension, since the two programmes are linked ), and EVA Air Infinity MileageLand’s sometimes-better Singapore Airlines award space.

HSBC says they plan to scale up the number of partners to 20 by the end of 2023, and based on the partners the Malaysia and Hong Kong versions have, I’d expect to see Air Canada Aeroplan, JAL Mileage Bank and Turkish Airlines Miles&Smiles added to the mix. 

Do note that only HSBC TravelOne Cardholders can access the abovementioned transfer partners; if you have a HSBC Revolution or HSBC Visa Infinite Card, you are still limited to KrisFlyer and Asia Miles for the moment. 

Regarding minimum conversion blocks, cardholders will need to convert a minimum of 25,000 points (10,000 miles). However, the subsequent conversion block drops to just 5 points (2 miles), which means you could convert 10,002 miles, or 200,006 miles if you so desired. That’s great, because it helps avoid the problem of orphan miles. So long as you keep at least 10,000 miles in your account, you can cash out your entire balance with almost no miles left behind. 

HSBC normally charges a S$43.20 annual fee for unlimited conversions, but as part of the TravelOne’s launch campaign, all transfers are free-of-charge till 31 December 2023.  It remains to be seen what model HSBC adopts after that, but my sense is that we can expect a ~S$25 fee per conversion. 

Transfer Time

HSBC says that with the exception of Accor Live Limitless, TravelOne points transfers are processed “instantly or within one business day”. 

I’m pleased to report that all transfers actually process instantly.  This is possible because HSBC uses Ascenda Loyalty’s platform, which has API integration with the airlines.

Here’s an example showing an instant transfer from TravelOne to British Airways Executive Club. There are also successful data points of instant transfers to Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer.

Other card perks

Four complimentary lounge visits.

Principal HSBC TravelOne Cardholders enjoy four complimentary lounge visits per year, provided via DragonPass.

Allowances are awarded by  calendar year , which means you basically enjoy eight visits in your first membership year. For example, if your card is approved in June 2023, you will be awarded:

• On date of approval: 4 visits (expires 31 December 2023)
• On 1 January 2024: 4 visits (expires 31 December 2024)

Allowances cannot be rolled over, so be sure to fully utilise your visits by the end of the calendar year.

Here’s how to start enjoying the benefit:

• Step 1: Download Mastercard Travel Pass app ( Android | iOS )
• Step 2: Select ‘Sign up’ to register for the programme, or log on to your account if you’re already a member
• Step 3: Enter your HSBC TravelOne Card details for a one-time verification
• Step 4: Complete your personal details for Mastercard Travel Pass account registration (enter your name as shown in your passport)
• Step 5: Set your account password

Four visits is relatively generous for an entry-level credit card, double what most of the competition is offering. The main catch is that these visits cannot be shared with a guest. 

Entertainer with HSBC

HSBC TravelOne Cardholders receive a complimentary ENTERTAINER with HSBC app membership, which includes:

• 1-for-1 dine-in offers at more than 150 merchants across Singapore, including Sushi Jiro @ PARKROYAL COLLECTION, Bangkok Jam, Paul Bakery and more
• 1-for-1 takeaway offers at more than 50 merchants including Canadian 2 For 1 Pizza, Andersen’s of Denmark and more
• Up to 50% off leisure, attraction and wellness offers at BOUNCE Singapore, Spa Infinity, Virtual Room and more
• 1-for-1 stays in rooms at over 175 hotels around the world

You’ll need an activation key to start using your ENTERTAINER membership. This should have been emailed to you; if not you’ll need to call 1800 4722 669 to get it from customer service.

HSBC Everyday Global Account

HSBC TravelOne Cardholders can earn an additional 1% cashback on all eligible transactions when they open an HSBC Everyday Global Account (EGA) and meet the qualifying criteria for the Everyday+ Rewards programme.

This involves:

• HSBC Personal Banking: S$2,000
• HSBC Premier: S$5,000
• Performing at least five eligible transactions of any amount each calendar month on their card

Eligible transactions simply refer to anything not on the exclusions list (Point 3 of T&Cs ), such as GrabPay top-ups, government transactions, insurance premiums, utilities bills. All other retail spend (e.g. dining, groceries, clothing and apparel) is fair game.

Cardholders who meet the eligibility criteria will earn 1% cashback, capped at S$300 per month for HSBC Personal Banking and S$500 per month for HSBC Premier.

This means your effective return for spending will be:

• Local Spend: 1.2 mpd + 1 % cashback
• Overseas Spend: 2.4 mpd + 1% cashback

All this requires is a one-time setup of the EGA, plus a recurring instruction to transfer the minimum fresh funds every month. 

Complimentary travel insurance

HSBC TravelOne Cardholders receive complimentary travel insurance when they:

• Use their TravelOne Card to purchase air tickets, or
• Use their TravelOne Card to pay for the taxes and surcharges on a ticket redeemed with airline miles

This includes coverage of up to US$100,000 for both the cardholder and their family. COVID-19 related medical treatment and trip cancellation is also provided for.

Summary Review: HSBC TravelOne Card

The HSBC TravelOne Card has a lot going for it: the widest range of transfer partners in Singapore, with more soon to come. Instant conversions, with no fees till 31 December 2023. Double the lounge visits of its closest competitors. A minimum transfer block of 10,000 miles that reduces to just 2 miles subsequently, making it easier to avoid orphan miles in your account.

It feels like an exciting puzzle that’s missing one big piece:  points don’t pool. Because of this, you can’t tap into the superior earning power of the HSBC Revolution, and even though the HSBC TravelOne Card’s earn rates are objectively good for a general spending card, 1.2/2.4 mpd is not going to challenge a 4 mpd card anytime soon.

There could be a silver lining though, because HSBC has points pooling on its roadmap. They’ve not committed to a specific timeframe, but when this happens, I get the sense that a lot of things will fall into place.

In the meantime, I certainly don’t see the harm of signing up for at least a year, in order to grab the sign-up bonus that’s open to both new and existing customers, as well as up to eight lounge visits.

anyone know if AXS pay+earn also contributes to the $800 spend offer?

Hi Milelion! Thanks for the solid write-up. By the way, in the above section “What sign-up bonus or gifts are available?”, the minimum qualifying spend seems to have increased to SGD1,000, from SGD800. As it is mentioned in HSBC’s “Terms and Conditions for the HSBC TravelOne Credit Card Sign up Promotion for 1 September 2023 to 31 December 2023”. Raising this up to prevent confusion among readers. Cheers~

thanks! will get that updated.

When will the TravelOne card annual fee for the bonus points be charged? I don’t see the annual fee showing on my statement yet after 2 months. If so how do I qualified for the bonus points? Any Idea?

hi Milelion, would u be in the know on whether the pooling would still happen by year end (aka 123123)?

i don’t have any info on this at the moment.

Hi Aaron, this is a great article! Quick questions for the EGA cashback eligibility, referring to HSBC EGA T&C art 5a (i)

Eligible Customers shall receive a cashback of 1% of the spend amount for successful posted: (i) transactions (excluding Excluded Transactions) in SGD made with a HSBC personal Credit Card

From above T&C, it seems only transactions in SGD are eligible for 1% cashback, not the FCY transactions. Kindly advise. Thank you!

Teacher’s latest book focuses on motivation in education

Former principal returns to read, substitute teach at his old school, fifth-grader publishes book, sequel to come, a decade in, teaching is still all about relationships, young readers follow the recipe for perfect pound cake, young engineers turn paper into a wild ride, schools see success in statewide push for phonics-based approach to reading, educators and business leaders team up to help build school-to-work pipeline, ‘the journey’s not over’: high-schoolers showcase black history , art contest celebrates kindness, compassion and community, parade of nations is celebration of diversity, special education: fulfilling the promise of education for all, history class becomes travel fair, complete with tasty fare.

Byron Center — West Middle School history teacher Ryan Molenkamp’s students recently became travel agents and presented their findings on different countries outside of North America. 

‘Some students picked countries based on their heritage, where they’ve traveled or where their family lives.’ — history teacher Ryan Molenkamp

“It would take approximately 21 hours by plane to travel from Byron Center to Vietnam,” seventh-grader Brylee DeMaagd said. “One of the most amazing things about the country is its many stadiums and arenas.” 

During her global travel fair presentation, Brylee shared her knowledge on Vietnam, as well as her mom’s homemade bone broth and rice noodles for her classmates to try. 

While visiting their classmates’ presentations, students filled out their travel passports with facts about each country’s political systems, economy and culture. 

Molenkamp’s students were required to make a speech using a visual aid, either a poster board or PowerPoint, and a colorful travel brochure. They could also wear traditional clothing or bring in food from their countries.

“We’ve been learning about different forms of governments and economies around the world in class, so they had to learn about both things from their countries,” Molenkamp said. 

He also explained their guiding acronym for researching countries around the world, “GRAPES” – geography, religion, achievements, politics, economy, and social structure – the six main aspects of civilization.

“Some students picked countries based on their heritage, where they’ve traveled or where their family lives,” Molenkamp said. “We wanted to have a variety each hour, so students in the same class could not choose the same countries.” 

Seventh-grader Sydney Zepeda said she chose to research the Dominican Republic because it’s a place she often visits during winter break and where her grandpa lives.  

While researching Denmark, seventh-grader Jacob Hovda said he learned that LEGO blocks were invented by Danish toy maker Ole Kirk Christiansen.

Seventh-grader Sophia Wierenga said she was interested in learning about Finland’s holiday traditions.

“One of the most interesting things I learned about Finland was that they have a 100% literacy rate,” she said. “That’s way better than it is in the U.S.”
