If you have not yet opened an account with HSBC, you may request a card on your HSBC account application. If you are requesting a debit card for an existing checking account, you may start your debit card application here. You can also request a debit or ATM card by sending us a BankMail or by contacting the Customer Relationship Center. If approved, we will send your card by mail 7-10 days from either the account opening date or the date the request is received.
An ATM card is used primarily for deposits and withdrawals at ATMs, and in some cases, point-of-sale (POS) purchases with a Personal Identification Number (PIN). A debit card has all the features of an ATM card, plus it can be used anywhere MasterCard® is accepted to purchase merchandise by directly debiting your checking account. Both cards can be used for deposits and withdrawals at any HSBC ATM in the U.S., and can be used to withdraw cash at over one million ATMs worldwide where the MasterCard®, Maestro® or Cirrus® marks are displayed. Foreign transaction fees may apply when using ATMs outside of the U.S., including HSBC ATMs.
You can designate your primary accounts and ATM preferences by sending us a BankMail with your preferences through Personal Internet Banking. Or call our Customer Relationship Center at 800.975.4722 to adjust your settings.

MasterCard® SecureCode is a service that allows you to protect your MasterCard® purchases over the Internet by using a personal SecureCode.
Once you've registered a card for the service you'll be asked for your MasterCard® SecureCode at participating online retailers. This prevents unauthorized usage of your card at participating online retailers and aims to increase confidence when shopping online.
The service is free of charge.
The zero liability guarantee still applies to clients who have signed up for MasterCard® SecureCode. However, MasterCard® SecureCode is there to help stop the fraud before it happens, by protecting your card with a SecureCode. If someone else is in possession of your card details and attempts to use them at participating online retailers, they won't be able to do so, as they don't know your MasterCard® SecureCode.
You can use your card at participating online retailers in the same way as you do now, but if the card you're using is registered for the service you'll be asked for your SecureCode before you complete your purchase.
Primary cardholders of the following MasterCard®'s can register for this service:
Registration is required for all HSBC Debit MasterCard® cards. You can register your eligible HSBC MasterCard® card in one of two ways:
Your SecureCode can be 6 to 10 characters, and can be letters, numbers or any combination. It cannot include any other characters or spaces.
Yes but remember that only your HSBC Debit MasterCard® card or HSBC MasterCard® card are eligible.
You can use the service immediately.
Participating online retailers will normally display the MasterCard® SecureCode logo. For a list of participating merchants, please check the MasterCard® SecureCode website at http://www.mastercard.com/securecode.
Once you have reached the online checkout and input your card details you'll be presented with a separate window in which you'll see the HSBC and MasterCard® SecureCode logos, details of the transaction, your Personal Greeting and a SecureCode request box. If you want to proceed with the transaction simply input your SecureCode and click 'Submit'.
No, only those online retailers who are participating in the service will ask you for your SecureCode.
If your card has been reported Lost or Stolen, or if the card number changes, you'll need to re-register your new card. Once you have received your replacement card visit http://www.securecode.com/hsbc-us to re-register your card. Or, if you are shopping at a participating merchant, you will be asked to register your new card and create your private SecureCode before you check out. Simply follow the instructions to re-authenticate your identity and you can create a new SecureCode and complete your purchase.
No. If your card is replaced because it expired, or your original card was damaged, you don't need to re-register your details on the MasterCard® SecureCode service.
