Hong Leong Bank is giving HLB Connect users the chance to collect Connect Points through everyday banking activities. The grand prize is a RM20,000 travel voucher for two to Santorini, Greece.
The HLB Connect Tap to Escape Promotion 2026 runs from 21 September to 20 November 2026. There are also travel vouchers for Chengdu, a Machines gift card and RM100 cash prizes up for grabs.
If you’re an existing HLB Connect user, you can earn points by logging in and completing eligible transactions during the promotion period.
You can earn points from things you probably already do, including:
You can also earn points from FPX payments, cross-border QR payments, foreign currency conversions and linking an HLB account to an HLB Singapore account via LINKS.
Each transaction comes with its own daily and promotion-period limits, so you can’t simply go on a DuitNow spree and expect unlimited points.
New HLB Connect users can also earn 500 points by opening an eligible CASA/CASA-i account online and logging into HLB Connect at least once during the promotion period.
You can also earn 200 points for each friend or family member who successfully opens an eligible account through the HLB Connect app.
The Connect Points aren’t prizes themselves. They’re used to earn entries into the promotion’s prize draws.
You’ll need:
And your points aren’t deducted when you earn an entry.
For example, someone with 11,370 Connect Points would get one entry into the Grand Prize draw, two entries into the Second Prize draw and three entries into the Third Prize draw.
You can check your points through the Points Tracker on HLB Connect.
Don’t have the app yet? You can download it from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, then log in and check your points.
The grand prize is a RM20,000 travel voucher for two to Santorini, Greece. Two winners will also receive RM10,000 travel vouchers for a trip for two to Chengdu, China.
Four winners will get RM5,000 Machines Gift Cards, while another 500 eligible customers will receive RM100 cash prizes based on their accumulated Connect Points after the main prize draws.
The promotion is open to new and existing individual customers who use HLB Connect and have an eligible HLB or HLB Islamic current or savings account, HLB Meezani Account-i and/or HLB credit card.
However, some previous HLB Connect promotion winners can still participate, but won’t be eligible to win prizes this time around. HLB’s permanent, contract and temporary staff are also excluded from winning.
There’s also a one-prize-per-person rule, so you can only win one prize throughout the promotion period.
The travel vouchers can be used for flights, hotels, airport transfers and other travel services provided by Holiday Tours & Travel. However, they’re subject to availability, can only be redeemed once, and any costs exceeding the voucher value will have to be paid by the winner.
The vouchers are also non-refundable, non-transferable and can’t be exchanged for cash. Winners are responsible for their own travel documents, permits and visas where applicable.
For the Machines gift card, it can only be used for physical product purchases at Machines stores in Malaysia, and each gift card can only be used in a single transaction. Any unused balance will be forfeited.
The promotion ends on 20 November 2026, with winners due to be notified by 1 February 2027.
So, if you’re already using HLB Connect to pay bills, transfer money or make QR payments, you might as well see how many Connect Points you can rack up.
