One Tap, Three Times a Week: How Apple Pay with HLB Pays You Back

Sponsored. In partnership with Hong Leong Bank.

There is a small moment in every day that most of us never think about. The queue at the café. The cashier says the total, and you start the search: wallet out, card out, card in the wrong slot, receipt, card back, wallet back.

Now picture the same moment, shot in one clean take. Your iPhone is already in your hand. A double-click, a glance, a short tap near the reader. Done. Coffee in hand before the barista has turned around.

That is the everyday upgrade Apple Pay brings to iPhone and Apple Watch users, and right now Hong Leong Bank is rewarding new users for making it a habit.

The offer, in one line

Add your HLB Visa Credit or Debit Card to Apple Pay, then spend at least RM50, three times, within the same promotion week using Apple Pay, and you can get RM30 Cashback.

The promotion runs from 16 October to 26 November 2026, and it is for HLB Visa Credit and Debit principal cardholders who are using Apple Pay with their HLB card for the first time.

Step one: add your card (it takes under a minute)

You can do it two ways.

In the Wallet app on your iPhone

  1. Open Wallet and tap the + button.
  2. Choose Debit or Credit Card and follow the steps to add your HLB Visa card.
  3. Verify the card with Hong Leong Bank when asked.

In the HLB Connect app
Open HLB Connect and add your HLB Visa card to Apple Wallet from inside the app.

Wearing an Apple Watch? Open the Watch app on your iPhone, go to Wallet & Apple Pay, and add the same card, so you can pay straight from your wrist.

Step two: tap through your week

This is where the habit forms. Three everyday moments are all it takes:

The morning coffee run. Double-click the side button, glance at your iPhone, hold it near the reader. On Apple Watch, double-click the side button and hold your wrist near the reader.

The petrol stop. No digging through the car for your wallet. Pay with your phone or your watch and get back on the road.

The weekly grocery haul. The basket adds up fast, and the payment takes a second.

Make three purchases of at least RM50 each with Apple Pay inside the same promotion week, and you have done what the promotion asks. There is no registration form: the bank tracks qualifying spend automatically.

Fast, smooth and secure

Apple Pay is quick because there is nothing to hand over. It is also secure: every payment is confirmed with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode, and your card stays in your pocket, or at home. When you pay with Apple Pay, your actual card number is not shared with the shop.

For people who already live on their iPhone and Apple Watch, it simply feels like the way paying should work.

When the RM30 lands

Eligible cashback is credited automatically into your principal card account within 60 days.

One thing to know: the cashback comes from a total pool of RM500,000, so it is available while the pool lasts. The earlier in the campaign you start, the better.
