HSBC Credit Card

 

Key product information

How it works

Flexible Savers help you save for anything, in a way that suits you. You can start your Flexible Saver account with just £1, and pay in lump sums or set up a standing order to save a set amount each month.

It's an instant access account, so you can put in or take out money whenever you like. There are no charges for withdrawals.

You can open as many Flexible Saver accounts as you like – perhaps one for a wedding and another for a holiday.

You'll earn interest on your money and if you're an HSBC Advance customer you are eligible for a preferential rate. More on HSBC Advance.

We'll usually send you a statement every 6 months, or you can do your bit for the environment and Go Green by switching off your paper statements in Internet Banking.
