Swagbucks is offering some users 4,000 Swagbucks (worth $40) when they sign up for a HSBC credit card. This is in addition to the standard sign up bonus on these cards (for example 3% cash back first year on the Cash Rewards card on up to $10,000 in spend).
We’ve seen one other issuer offer an additional bonus through Swagbucks before, only for that offer to be pulled extremely quickly. I suspect this is because other affiliates complain about these incentivized offers. Will be interesting to see if HSBC keeps this offer or if it’s also pulled.

The HSBC Premier World Mastercard® credit card actually doesn’t seem to bad, without the SB bonus, if you are looking for a card with a decent sign up bonus and you’ve hit the regular suspects already.

40 bucks for a hard-pull on your credit inquiry..
Not bad if you were going to get the card anyway. 3% back in any category is fantastic
$40 swagbucks, $300 after 10k, $30 10% anniversary=$370. Could be worse?
Technically, it comes out to a little more than 40 as SB users get 12.5% the first $25 gift card they buy every month, other than Paypal. So, cards like Amazon and Walmart that are rarely discounted on sites help you get a little extra profit.
But considering this card doesn’t have any kind of additional bonus with it it is not worth it.
