HSBC EGA Savings Promo: Get up to 4.05% to 4.25% p.a. For December 2024 and January 2025

We are in the last month of 2024, and with the new month comes another HSBC EGA savings promo. For the months of December 2024 and January 2025, get between 3.05% to 3.25% p.a. interest with the promo together with the base interest rate. This is given on top of HSBC Everyday+ programme’s 1% p.a. bonus interest.

Depending on the customer segment and/or amount of funds placed, it’s possible to get between 4.05% to 4.25% p.a. interest on your funds.

Promo Details

To qualify, you need to register by sending the following text message to 74722 from 1st to 31st December 2024:

1% p.a. bonus interest for meeting HSBC Everyday+ Rewards programme

An additional 1% p.a. interest is awarded for meeting the HSBC Everyday+ Rewards programme. This has been an ongoing programme and all you need to do within the month is to do the following:

  1. Deposit a minimum of S$2,000 (or S$5,000 for Premier customers) in the HSBC EGA Account
  2. Make at least 5 transactions

These 5 transactions can be credit/debit card transactions or even FAST/PayNow transactions to other bank accounts. See the terms and conditions here.

The bonus interest of 1% p.a. will be capped at S$300. This is maxed out with about S$365,000 ADB in months with 30 days and roughly S$353,000 ADB in months with 31 days.

To get the most optimal yield – place funds for a single month

Note that the promo takes November 2024 to be the reference month while Everyday+ takes the month before. This means that you would only be able to stack both the promo’s interest and Everyday+’s interest in a single month.

Example

For a personal banking customer with S$0 in their HSBC EGA and places in S$100,000 across December 2024 and January 2025, this is what they can expect:

November 2024December 2024January 2025
Hypothetical Average BalanceS$0S$100,000S$100,000
Base InterestN/A✅ 0.05% p.a.

Everyday+ InterestN/A✅ 1% p.a. on S$100,000❌ N/A (S$0 increase from previous month)
Effective YieldN/A4.05% p.a.3.05% p.a.

Notably, Everyday+ interest is received only on the first month because when the second month (January 2025) comes along, the S$100,000 is no longer considered “fresh” since Everyday+ compares it to December’s balance (i.e. the balance of the month before).
