HSBC integrates personal information vault into credit card application process

Applicants won’t need to provide supporting documents anymore.

HSBC Bank (Singapore) has integrated government-backed digital personal information vault MyInfo to its digital credit card application process.

The integration means that applicants do not need to provide supporting documents like IDs or proof of income during the digital credit card application anymore. The seamless onboarding experience will be available to all credit card application channels including roadshows, branches, internet and Telesales.

“By tapping into MyInfo, our customers’ government-held personal data will automatically be populated into our online digital credit card application form,” said HSBC Bank (Singapore) head of digital Alvin Lim. “It not only makes it easier for customers, but also eliminates input errors which will enhance the quality of data that we receive, leading to improved operational efficiency.”

“The integration of our online and mobile credit card application platform to MyInfo is especially significant given we are leveraging a national initiative that our customers trust to make it easier for them to do business with us,” said HSBC Bank (Singapore) head of customer value management Matthias Dekan.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
