Our FX service is now integrated within the same HSBC Mobile app that you use to view your finances, invest and more, making it even more seamless and convenient.

You can manage your recent and past transactions more efficiently and repeat them with just a one touch access.

And with the FX Order Watch, the FX market never sleeps and we enhanced this FX facility to help create that seamless journey for you.

Once you set the target FX rate, we do the heavy lifting of tracking how it moves while you rest and put your time to use more effectively.

1. Log in & tap on either the 'Wealth' tab or the Pay and transfer' tab.
2. Select "Foreign exchange" and you can check the real time preferential FX rates.
3. To set up your target rate to set up FXOW / FX Rate Alerts, tap on "Set your target rate" and continue the journey; and if you wish to cancel FXOW / FX Rate Alert, and continue the journey.

You can set up orders (minimum USD100) for currency pairs in these currencies: Australian dollar, Canadian dollar, Euro, Japanese yen, New Zealand dollar, Pound sterling, Singapore dollar, Swiss franc, US dollar and Hong Kong dollar.

The FX Order Watch service is available to all HSBC customers who have foreign currency accounts.
