Hang Seng Bank launches a 10% time deposit Hong Kong promotion for new wealth management and payroll account customers in 2026

Hang Seng Bank has launched an aggressive campaign to attract new customers by offering a 10% time deposit Hong Kong promotion for both Hong Kong dollar and U.S. dollar deposits.

The move comes as banks across Hong Kong compete for customers ahead of the second half of 2026, with high-yield savings and fixed deposit products becoming one of the biggest attractions in the financial sector.

The latest 10% time deposit Hong Kong offer is available through different wealth management tiers, including Preferred Banking, Prestige Banking, and Prestige Private accounts.

Three Customer Tiers Eligible for 10% Deposits

Hang Seng Bank structured the promotion to target multiple customer groups with varying balance requirements.

Customers opening or upgrading to a Preferred Banking account can access a 2-month Hong Kong dollar fixed deposit offering up to 10% annual interest. Meanwhile, customers joining Prestige Banking or Prestige Private can qualify for a 3-month U.S. dollar deposit with the same headline interest rate.

However, the bank clarified that the 10% rate is not guaranteed immediately. Eligible customers must participate in a lucky draw after fulfilling specific banking conditions.

To qualify, customers must:

  • Open or upgrade a wealth management account by the end of June 2026
  • Open the relevant fixed deposit before the end of July 2026
  • Complete designated banking activities such as payroll account setup or foreign exchange transactions

The bank plans to announce lucky draw results by the end of October.

Payroll Accounts Increase Winning Chances

One of the main conditions tied to the 10% time deposit Hong Kong campaign is opening a new PayDay+ payroll account. Customers who register a new salary account can receive up to five lucky draw entries, significantly improving their odds of securing the promotional interest rate.

Additional lucky draw opportunities are available for customers conducting foreign exchange transactions or maintaining large account balances.

Hang Seng Bank also noted several restrictions and deposit limits. The Hong Kong dollar promotion applies to deposits between HK$10,000 and HK$100,000, while the U.S. dollar offer has separate balance requirements.

The bank added that part of the promotional return comes from an “extra annual interest rate,” which will only be credited after winners are officially confirmed later this year.

The campaign highlights intensifying competition among Hong Kong banks, with lenders such as OCBC Bank, ICBC Asia, and Mox Bank also rolling out promotional fixed deposit offers to attract savers seeking higher returns in a competitive interest-rate environment.
