1. What is Eligible Incremental Balance?
“Eligible Incremental Balance” is the increment of the daily average balance from April to June 2025, per currency, of Eligible Deposit Account(s) as compared with the period end balance on 31 March 2025 of the corresponding currency.
2. Illustration example of calculating Eligible Incremental Balance and offer
Assuming that a customer has the following GBP deposit balances and transactions during April to June 2025:
GBP Deposit Balances and Transactions | GBP |
---|---|
Deposit balance as of 31 Mar: | 10,000 |
Deposit balance from 1 - 15 Apr (15 days): | 10,000 |
Fund in on 16 Apr: | +50,000 |
Deposit balance from 16 Apr - 30 May (45 days): | 60,000 |
Fund out on 31 May: | -10,000 |
Deposit balance from 31 May - 30 Jun (31 days): | 50,000 |
Daily average balance of Apr to Jun (Refer to below image for calculation details): | 48,351 |
Eligible Incremental Balance (Cap being GBP30,000): = Deposit daily average balance of Apr to Jun - Deposit balance as of 31 Mar = GBP48,351 - GBP10,000 = GBP38,351 (Note: The amount in which this offer can be enjoyed is GBP30,000, as it is subject to a cap which is GBP30,000) |
30,000 |
Bonus Interest (Take PayDay+ Payroll
Account Customer as an example) = (Eligible Incremental Balance x Bonus Savings Rate) x (No. of days in the counting period / 365 days) = (GBP20,000 x 2.999% + GBP10,000 x 4.999%) x (91 days / 365 days) = GBP274 (~HKD2,740) |

Remark: The illustration above is taking GBP transactions of a PayDay+ Payroll Account Customer as an example. The same calculation applies to other currencies. The amount of bonus interest is calculated in GBP first, then converted into its HKD equivalent amount based on the exchange rate solely determined by the Bank. The illustration is calculated based on GBP1 = HKD 10, which the exchange rate is intended for indicative purposes only.
Foreign Currency Risk
Foreign Exchange involves Exchange Rate Risk. Fluctuations in the
exchange rate of a foreign currency may result in gains or loss of
principal in the event that the customer converts the deposits
from HKD or foreign currency to another currency, and/or in the
event that the customer converts a foreign currency time deposit
to HKD upon maturity.
