HSBC Credit Cardholders can double their chances of winning with every 10,000 rupees they spend.

This will be in addition to many other fun activities for both adults and children such as Christmas baking at Mrs. Claus’s kitchen, Christmas décor making, puppet shows, gift wrapping, meet and greet with Santa, a range of choirs and Christmas bands, a Christmas family photo station to capture those special moments as well as a post office where kids can send their seasonal wishes to Santa Clause.

HSBC also plans to make the theme for the season #creatorsofcheer come to life through a pop-up store on Level 3 at CCC, where there will be special giveaways and surprises for shoppers who apply for an HSBC credit card, during this time.
