Receive up to a 15% bonus when you convert HSBC Rewards (Canada) points to Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer + MORE Oct 28th

 Singapore Airlines KrisFlyer has brought back their bonus for transferring bank rewards points (ie credit card) to their program. For us here in Canada this means HSBC Rewards and the bonus ranges from 12% to 15% depending on how many points you transfer to KrisFlyer. So this is a little different than when they ran it at the end of last year/beginning of this year as that time it was a flat 15% instead of a tiered bonus. The transfer window is also smaller this time as you only have until November 22 to make a transfer, though SQ did extend it last year so it is possible it will be extended this time as well. The bonus is broken down as follows:Earn 12% bonus miles when you convert between 10,000 to 49,999 miles in a single qualifying transaction OR Earn 15% bonus miles when you convert 50,000 miles or more in a single qualifying transaction.As you can see the best bonus is when you convert enough points in one transaction that you’ll receive 50,000 KrisFlyer Miles. With HSBC Rewards points in Canada you have to convert a minimum of 25,000 points and that amount points will net you 9,000 KrisFlyer Miles…

The third of which we look is the card that took the top spot in the No Foreign Transaction Fee Credit Card category and that’s the HSBC World Elite® Mastercard® Other posts in this series:A closer look at the credit card that Canada voted as the number one overall travel rewards card in CanadaA closer look at the credit card that Canada voted as the number one no annual fee travel rewards card in CanadaMuch like some other Canada’s categories, Canada’s thoughts and our own research and opinion here at Rewards Canada aren’t far off from each other. Canada ranked the HSBC World Elite Mastercard as the number one overall No Foreign Transaction Fee Credit Card in Canada and while we don’t have a separate No FX fee ranking of our own we do consider this card the best option in that category – I mean we do rank it as fifth best card overall in Canada ahead all other No FX cards…

This update is brought to you by the HSBC World Elite Mastercard which is currently offering a welcome bonus of up to 100,000 bonus points worth $500, has no foreign transaction fees and no annual fee in the first year! Radisson Rewards is the latest hotel program to provide a further extension on Elite benefits. They announced that all Radisson Rewards Americas Silver, Gold and Platinum members whose status is set to expire in February 2022 will have it extended to February 2023. They will also rollover all 2021 elite nights that you have earned to 2022 thereby making it easier to achieve status for 2023. They have not however extended the expiration on points – those are still set to start expiring on December 31, 2021. I actually just received an email from them about a week ago telling me my points will expire at that time…
