PROSPECTS

British Airways’ Avios a new option for air miles

Cathay Pacific’s Asia Miles was no longer the only air miles option available to credit card holders in Hong Kong in 2018, with British Airways’ Avios points being introduced as another alternative. According to industry sources, a growing number of card issuers are giving card holders the choice of either.

Cash remains the preferred type of reward

Among all the rewards available for credit card expenditure, cash remained the most popular in 2018. Multiple industry players have suggested that consumers prefer rewards which are “more liquid”, for example as if they were cash, such as supermarket coupons or reductions on their next credit card statement.

Slowdown predicted for commercial credit cards

Commercial credit cards provide businesses with various benefits. However, the rewards offered by commercial credit cards do not generally match those provided by personal credit cards.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

HSBC and DBS reward apps

Redeeming credit card rewards has long been a problem for credit card holders in Hong Kong, with credit card issuers looking to find a solution to this in 2018. As cash is the most popular type of reward, HSBC Reward+ and DBS Omni were created as mobile solutions to simplify the redemption process.

UnionPay gains share

UnionPay continued to gain ground in credit cards in 2017 thanks to not charging a fee on foreign currency transactions, with other credit card operators charging the holder a 2% fee per transaction on average. UnionPay also offers dual currency credit cards for the Hong Kong dollar and Chinese yuan, thus providing card holders with more payment flexibility while eliminating currency risk.

WeChat Pay and Alipay accept foreign credit card operators in 2018

With China’s payment landscape gradually opening up to international players, the two largest digital payment companies, WeChat Pay and Alipay, started to support foreign credit card operators in 2018. Prior to this, the only credit card operator which had a strategic alliance with the two Chinese digital payment giants was UnionPay, thus giving it a strategic advantage over foreign players.
