Last week we provided details on HSBC’s flagship card, the World Elite Mastercard having a new welcome offer of up to 40,000 bonus HSBC Rewards points and the first year with no annual fee. That offer is a far cry from the 100,000 points with first year free they offer prior to the end of 2020 so I feel like a lot of people may be waiting it out for that card to come out with an even stronger offer.

This new offer provides up to 30,000 HSBC Rewards Points, no annual fee in the first year and still offers a lower 11.9% on purchases, funds advances and balance transfers which is the primary reason people get this card.
