What is HSBC Amanah Premier Everyday Global Account-i?
Are you an avid traveller? Or are you thinking of furthering your studies abroad? Travelling overseas can be such a hassle without proper planning, but with HSBC Amanah Premier Everyday Global Account-i; spending using foreign currencies couldn't be much easier!
This all-in-one multicurrency savings account lets you have financial peace of mind for your everyday banking and purchasing needs — here in Malaysia and abroad.
So, how does it work? Tell me more!
It's very simple. When in Malaysia, you can make purchases locally using the Malaysian Ringgit. Just swipe or transact and you're good to go.
When you want to purchase something let's say from Amazon.com, you can pay for the items in foreign currency as well.
For example, if you have chosen a USD500 item from the website, the bank will deduct the amount in USD from your HSBC Amanah Premier Everyday Global Account-i — with no hidden charges.
However, if you don't have a sufficient amount of foreign currency in your account, the bank will convert it automatically and charge the items in MYR instead.
Furthermore, existing HSBC Amanah Premier customers get to enjoy ZERO overseas transaction fees when they withdraw or transact automatically in foreign currencies.
