HSBC has been quite busy in India lately. From the recently announced ALL Accor transfer bonus to the upgraded HSBC Live+ Credit Card, the bank has been rolling out one update after another for its customers. Now, it looks like another offer is on the way, with HSBC teasing a 0% forex mark-up promotion on international spends made using its credit cards. While the complete terms and eligible cards are yet to be revealed, the teaser confirms that the offer will run between 15 August and 15 September 2026.

What We Know So Far
- 0% forex mark-up on eligible international spends.
- Offer valid between 15 August and 15 September 2026.
- HSBC has stated that more details will be revealed soon.
- The teaser mentions that Terms & Conditions will apply, indicating the offer may come with specific eligibility criteria or registration requirements.
Bottom Line
A 0% forex mark-up offer is always welcome, especially for HSBC cardholders, as cards like the HSBC TravelOne, Premier, and Privé Credit Cards cater to more premium customers who are likely to spend internationally more frequently.
When combined with a good reward rate, international travel benefits, and zero forex charges, the offer has the potential to translate into significant savings for HSBC credit cardholders. With the promotion set to begin on 15 August 2026, it may be worth waiting for the complete terms before making large foreign currency transactions.
We’ll update this article once HSBC officially announces the eligible cards, offer mechanics, and detailed terms and conditions.
