Otherwise you can apply and be approved in store for one of these two great options to complete your interest free purchase:
HSBC's Classic Credit Card

Frequently Asked Questions
How does interest-free^ work?
Interest free^ means you will not have to pay interest on the purchase amount financed during the promotional period (e.g. 6, 12, 24 months). You will be required to make minimum monthly payments on the principal amount of the purchase through the promotional period by the due date as shown on your monthly statement.
What does 'interest-free payment deferred^' mean?
As well as having the advantage of not being charged any interest for the specified promotional period, you also do not need to make any repayments on that specific promotion for the deferred period (e.g. 6 months).
If I don't pay out the total amount owing by the end of the promotional period, will the interest be backdated to the start of the promotion?
No, the cash advance rate will only be charged to the remaining promotional balance from the day after the promotion expires.
How often do I make repayments?
Repayments are monthly except for purchases made in any payment deferred promotion periods. Repayments for these purchases will commence from the expiry of the payment deferred promotion. Any minimum payment and the due date will be shown on your monthly statement.
Are there penalties for early repayments?
No, there are no penalties for early repayments.
Can I choose which product I wish to apply for?
Yes, however products may be subject to different credit criteria and promotional terms. If you are unsure which product is best for you, please talk to the sales person in store.
