Receive a 30% bonus when you transfer HSBC Rewards points to British Airways Executive Club in June

Next month HSBC is bringing back their transfer bonus to British Airways Executive Club and this time it will be a 30% bonus! The last few iterations of the bonus have seen it at 35% and 40%, so not as high this time but still a very worthy bonus to consider.  This could be a prime time for those of you who grabbed the  HSBC World Elite Mastercard in Fall of 2020 and missed the offer last July to convert now. Those of you who signed up for the card in Fall of 2021 with the 100K bonus should have a sizeable amount of points as well to consider converting.

Normally you would redeem 25,000 HSBC Rewards Points for 10,000 Avios:

However with this offer that brings it up to 13,000 Avios for those 25,000 points. This equates to 1.56 to 3.12 Avios per dollar spent on the World Elite version of their Mastercards! For those who have earned the 100K bonus from over the past couple of years you are looking at 52,000 Avios not including the points you earned on the actual spend.

British Airways Executive Club definitely has some good sweet spots - like redeeming for flights on Aer Lingus between Toronto and Dublin. You can book that round trip flight in Economy Class to Dublin from Toronto for as little as 26,000 Avios. That means with this bonus it only take 50,000 HSBC Rewards Points to get that flight. That's just one example of the power of British Airways Executive Club - there are lots of others like flights between the U.K. and Europe, intra-Asia flights and so much more where big value can be had. 

This offer runs from June 1 to June 30, 2022 and is good for primary cardholder of an HSBC Premier Mastercard®, HSBC Premier World Mastercard®, HSBC World Elite® Mastercard, HSBC Premier World Elite® Mastercard®, or HSBC Jade World Elite® Mastercard® cards.
