The world's local bank

With your HSBC Premier Debit Chip Card you no longer have to worry about having enough cash in your wallet. It puts your bank account in your pocket, giving you the flexibility to pay for all your shopping, dining, travel or any other payments conveniently in the UAE and around the world.
Your HSBC Debit Chip Card is embedded with a microchip (Chip). PIN is a 6-digit Personal Identification Number issued by the Bank. Cards with Chip technology are harder to copy and help safeguard against counterfeiting. When used together with your 6-digit PIN, using your HSBC Debit Chip Card is much more secure than using a Card with a magnetic stripe and signature.
Your new HSBC Debit Chip Card can be used for purchases at retail outlets and at ATMs together with your 6-digit PIN. Please note, due to the fact that not all retail outlets are equipped to handle Chip card transactions, you may be required to sign for the transaction instead of being asked to enter the PIN.
Your HSBC Premier Debit Chip Card is programmed with contactless 'Visa payWave' technology. Save time by just waving your HSBC Premier Debit Card in front of the payWave reader for small value purchases. You may not be required to enter your PIN or sign for the transaction. This feature is currently available only at select outlets.
