HSBC and Plaza Premium Group (PPG) have announced a new partnership aimed at enhancing the travel experience for HSBC credit card customers. Through PPG’s mobile-app based global membership program called Smart Traveller, HSBC cardholders will have access to a range of exclusive airport hospitality benefits. This collaboration marks the first of its kind in the market and aims to provide unique rewards and benefits to HSBC’s cardholders.
The partnership enables HSBC cardholders to convert their RewardCash (RC) into Smart Traveller’s Arrture Points instantly through API integration on HSBC Reward+. These Arrture Points can then be redeemed for various airport experience rewards, including Plaza Premium Lounge access, Plaza Premium First upgrades, ALLWAYS buggy services, and airport lounge and hotel services in key travel destinations, all through the Smart Traveller app. Additionally, HSBC cardholders will have access to an exclusive marketplace within the Smart Traveller app, where they can redeem a curated selection of travel experiences for themselves, their families, and friends at a discount of up to 70 percent.
The collaboration between HSBC and Plaza Premium Group comes at a time when travel is gradually returning to pre-pandemic levels, with HSBC cardholders showing increased spending on air tickets and travel agency services. Amy Kam, Head of Cards and Personal Lending, Wealth and Personal Banking, HSBC, Hong Kong, expressed the importance of providing relevant and innovative rewards to credit card customers, particularly in the travel-related sector. The partnership with PPG’s Smart Traveller Programme expands the use case of RC, offering customers the opportunity to redeem a wide range of travel experiences and benefits.
Through the Smart Traveller App and the exclusive HSBC marketplace, cardholders can choose from various airport hospitality services that cater to their specific travel needs. The partnership aims to offer comfort and convenience during the airport dwell time, whether it’s through buggy services, lounge access, showers, places to nap or work, or even cocktails.
As part of the collaboration, Smart Traveller has created an exclusive marketplace for HSBC credit cardholders, offering a carefully curated set of travel privileges at preferential prices. HSBC credit card customers can instantly access these offers by converting their RCs into Arrture Points at an exchange rate of $1RC to 5 Arrture Points. To celebrate the launch of the partnership, there will be a special promotion from 1 July until 31 August 2023, where HSBC cardholders can enjoy a preferential conversion rate of $1RC to 10 Arrture Points.
