Who should get it

TravelOne suits travellers who want 20 airline and hotel transfer programmes and app-based transfers. Ratios vary by partner; Accor, Marriott, IHG and Wyndham are 1:1, while Shangri-La is 5:1.

The ₹4,999 + GST annual fee reverses when eligible anniversary-year spending exceeds ₹8 lakh. Marketplace flight, hotel and car bookings earn accelerated points within an 18,000-RP monthly portal cap; their value depends on the eventual redemption.

Reward exclusions

Transactions that do not earn HSBC Reward points

Eligibility follows the merchant category code and transaction data received by the issuer, so the merchant name alone may not determine whether a transaction earns rewards.

  • Fuel, insurance, utilities and jewellery
  • Education, government, tax, court, bail and bond payments
  • Rent and real-estate payments
  • Wallet loads, money transfers, financial-institution and quasi-cash transactions

HSBC TravelOne FAQs

Confirm availability, minimums and timing in the HSBC India app.

Is the HSBC TravelOne annual fee waived?

The ₹4,999 + GST annual fee reverses when eligible spending exceeds ₹8 lakh in the anniversary year. When eligible annual spending exceeds ₹12 lakh, the card also awards 10,000 bonus RP.

What is the TravelOne welcome offer?

Download and log on to the HSBC India Mobile Banking app, then spend ₹25,000 within the first 30 days of opening the card account to get ₹1,000 cashback, a ₹3,000 PostCard voucher and 3 months of EazyDiner Prime. Introductory-offer terms apply.

What forex markup does HSBC TravelOne charge?

The standard currency conversion charge is 3.5% + GST. A registration-based promotion that credited the markup back ended on 30 June 2026. Unless HSBC publishes a new offer and you successfully register, calculate international transactions using the standard markup.

Did HSBC TravelOne lose any transfer partners?

Use HSBC’s current 20-partner list and the India app transfer screen. Ratios are partner-specific; a programme’s reward value and availability can change. Axis also currently lists Accor, so HSBC is not the only available Accor transfer route.
