HSBC has pushed its zero-forex campaign out by another month. International spends on eligible HSBC cards can continue without the usual forex markup through the end of October — good news if you’ve got travel or online foreign spends planned.
Offer Details

- Extended till 31 October 2026
- Stacks with other ongoing international spend campaigns on the same card
Eligible Cards / Who Can Avail
- HSBC credit card holders covered under the zero-forex promotion
- Cards frequently mentioned for stacking: HSBC Live+ (with Visa Power Travel) and HSBC TravelOne (for Accor value)
Benefits
- Lower effective cost on overseas spends, international online merchants, and travel bookings
- Can be combined with accelerated earning or partner bonuses where applicable
- An extra month of runway versus the earlier 30 September cutoff
How to Claim / Steps
- Use an eligible HSBC card for international or forex transactions
- Confirm your card is part of the zero-forex campaign via the HSBC app or latest communication
- Track spends separately if you’re also chasing Visa Power Travel or Accor-linked bonuses on the same card
Validity / Important Notes
- Extension currently indicated till 31 October 2026 — this is an update to our earlier post on the 30 September version
