- Charge all your holiday purchases to HSBC MasterCard Credit® Card and win up to QAR 50,000* of your spend back -
Holiday-goers in Qatar have another important reason to start planning their summer vacations early this season. HSBC brings a rewarding opportunity for customers to win their holiday spend back if they use the HSBC MasterCard® Credit Card to make travel purchases.
Between 5 April and 31 May 2012, for every QAR 500 spent using their HSBC MasterCard Credit Card in any number of transactions, customers get a chance to win one of five prizes of up to QAR 50,000 of their travel related spend back. These include spends such as flights, accommodation and car hire. Alternatively, customers could also win up to QAR 5,000 on non-travel-related spend.
Kris Werner, Head of Retail Banking and Wealth Management, Qatar said, "It is the perfect opportunity for HSBC customers to realise their dream holiday. No matter who they book their travel through, or whether vacationing at home or abroad, as long as customers use their HSBC MasterCard® Credit Card they stand to win almost their entire holiday spend back. Moreover the opportunity to win continues to increase with each spend of QAR 500 which can be made in multiple transactions as well. Therefore, a customer spending QAR 5,000 on travel related expenses gets 10 entries to the draw."
Five lucky customers stand to win at the end of the campaign. Winners will receive a refund of their travel related spend incurred using the HSBC MasterCard® Credit Card.
"Personal travel is an important priority for many customers and nearly all are looking for bargains and saving opportunities to make the most of their holiday. HSBC MasterCard® Credit Cards offer an exceptional opportunity to recover a part, if not all, of the holiday expense back. This is also a call for those busy professionals who book at the last minute and miss out on early bird room and air-ticket rates. Plan ahead, pay with your HSBC MasterCard Credit Card and you could very well afford two holidays for the price of one."
