Payees you have saved in online banking may not have all relevant information required to make an international transfer via HSBC Australia mobile banking, in which case, you may be required to add these payees in the mobile app to provide you the payment option at a lower fee.

For example, the transfer fee for a payment in HKD to Hong Kong with bank code information is $0. If your payee saved in online banking does not have this bank code information and you are making a transfer to this payee via HSBC Australia mobile banking, your payment can still be made, but the cost will be AUD30. You may be required to delete the payee from online banking first before adding it in mobile app. Make sure you read all information shown to you on the screen. The applicable fee will also be shown throughout the payment process and prior to you completing the transfer.

International transfers generally take 1-3 business days. Depending on the currency you send and its destination country or territory, the payment may arrive faster. The estimated time of arrival will be displayed on the review screen prior to you completing the payment. This information will also be shown on the confirmation screen after you have completed the payment.

An indicative HSBC Real Time Exchange Rate will be provided on screen, you will be asked to confirm payment details including the exchange rate prior to proceed with completing the transfer. The final HSBC Real Time Exchange Rate will be set when you confirm the transfer.

Exchange rates are refreshed every 60 seconds. You will be prompted with a message in a blue banner if the exchange rate has refreshed. Make sure you check the exchange rate before completing your transfer.

HSBC's Real Time Exchange Rates will apply to all international transfers via HSBC Australia mobile banking including the conversion of the AUD30 transfer fee if it is charged by the corresponding bank.
