Editor’s Take
HSBC Premier customers who want a no-annual-fee credit card might find the HSBC Premier World Mastercard credit card worth adding to their wallet. Just don’t expect tons of rewards or benefits. You’ll only get two points per dollar on travel and one point per dollar on all other purchases. On the positive side, the card comes with travel accident and trip cancellation insurance and lost or damaged luggage coverage, plus a statement credit if you purchase TSA PreCheck.
