CashBack
What is CashBack?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

CashBack is the cash we directly credit into your Mox Account after you use Mox Card (linked to Mox Account) or Mox Credit on eligible transactions in Hong Kong or overseas. The CashBack you may receive is calculated according to the ‘CashBack Rate’. CashBack is paid in Hong Kong dollars. Once the CashBack is paid to your Mox Account, you can spend it straight away!

Will the CashBack I received be deducted from my Mox Account if the relevant transaction was cancelled, refunded or declined?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

Yes, the same amount of CashBack you received on the transaction, that has been subsequently cancelled, refunded or declined, will be deducted from your Mox Account.

Can I receive CashBack on eligible transactions made at overseas merchants?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

Yes, you can receive CashBack on eligible overseas transactions. The amount of CashBack you may receive will be calculated on the eligible transaction converted into Hong Kong dollars based on our applicable foreign currency exchange rate.

Do I need to register for CashBack?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

No, you will automatically receive CashBack on all eligible transactions without registration.

Will I receive CashBack on all of my Mox Card transactions?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

No, not all Mox Card transactions are eligible for CashBack.

Please refer to clause 8.5 of Schedule 1 (Terms and Conditions for Accounts and Card Management) to the General Terms and Conditions for details on what transactions and merchants are eligible and ineligible for CashBack. The list is non-exhaustive and the final decision on whether a transaction is eligible or ineligible for CashBack is ultimately determined by Mox in its absolute discretion.

‘Ineligible Transactions’

The following transaction types are examples of those that are likely to constitute ‘ineligible transactions’ and will therefore not be eligible for CashBack:

(i) transactions made using your Mox Card which fall within certain merchant codes or categories designated by us (in our absolute discretion) or by Mastercard (in their discretion) from time to time. For example, a merchant may change their merchant code(s) or Mastercard may change how they categorise merchants or transaction types and this may affect your eligibility for CashBack;


(ii) gambling or betting transactions, including government licensed horse/dog racing;


(iii) cash withdrawals;


(iv) cash advances or balance transfers;


(v) payments through digital wallets (except in most cases for payments made through Google Pay or Apple Pay); and purchases with, or reloading of, stored value cards (including but not limited to Octopus account top-up transactions via an e-wallet or any other means). For the avoidance of doubt, transactions made using WeChat Pay are not eligible for CashBack;


(vi) payments in relation to crypto-currencies;


(vii) sending or transferring cash using your Mox Card or Mox Account (whether by a digital means or otherwise);


(viii) payments to financial institutions, including brokers and dealers;


(ix) bill payments, tax payments or insurance payments designated as such by Mastercard;


(x) purchases of foreign currencies, money orders or traveler’s cheques;


(xi) payments of financial charges or fees;


(xii) transactions which are designated by us (in our absolute discretion) or by Mastercard (in their absolute discretion) as ‘mail order’ or ‘postal service’ or ‘commuter passenger transportation’ transactions; and


(xiii) purchases of reward programs or memberships (designated as such by Mastercard).

What is the ‘eligible balance’ for unlocking ‘2% Unlimited CashBack’ on all my eligible transactions?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

Simply keep HKD75,000 or more in your savings accounts with Mox (excluding any balances in your Time Deposit Account(s)), at the time you make the relevant transaction.

If your eligible balance falls below HKD75,000 at the time you make the relevant transaction, you can still receive ‘1% Unlimited CashBack’ on the eligible transaction. We will not deduct the 2% CashBack you previously received on relevant transactions completed before your eligible balance fell below HKD75,000.

Does CashBack apply only to transactions that are made at physical stores?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

No, CashBack applies to all eligible transactions made directly with your Mox Card at the merchant’s physical store, website or mobile application. In most cases, CashBack applies to Mox Card (linked to Mox Account) or Mox Credit payments through Apple Pay or Google Pay. However, it does not include digital wallet top-ups and other examples set out in clause 8.5 of Schedule 1 (Terms and Conditions for Accounts and Card Management) to the General Terms.

Please check the CashBack Table (which can be found in the Mox app and/or on our website)or contact our Customer Care Team for more information before making a purchase if you have any enquiries, via in-app live chat or call.

When will I receive the CashBack?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

We will send you notification, including the applicable CashBack Rate and how much CashBack you received from your eligible transaction, after the transaction is made on your Mox Card. CashBack will be credited to your Mox Account when the transaction is settled.

What is the maximum CashBack I can receive on my eligible transactions?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

During the promotion period, when you make an eligible transaction with:

  1. Mox Credit, at the following merchants categories, you may receive:
  • 3% Unlimited Cashback at merchants classified under the ‘grocery stores and supermarkets’ category (as determined by MasterCard Asia/Pacific (Hong Kong) Limited); or
  • 3% Cashback at selected CashBack Merchants (capped at HKD600); or
  • 2% Unlimited Cashback at any eligible merchants, if you have an ‘eligible balance’ of HKD75,000 or more at the time you make the transaction; or
  • 1% Unlimited Cashback at any eligible merchants, or
  1. Mox Card (linked to Mox Account), at eligible merchants categories, you may receive 0.5% Unlimited Cashback.

For further details, please refer to our CashBack Table.

I didn’t receive CashBack on my Mox Card transaction. What do I do?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

CashBack will only be credited to your Mox Account once the eligible transaction has been settled and confirmed by Mastercard or Mox. In most cases, you will instantly receive notification from us about the CashBack you received on the eligible transaction.

Transactions may take two to three days to settle. A pending transaction will be shown as ‘pending’ in the Mox app. If the relevant transaction status has changed to “complete” but CashBack has not been paid into your Mox Account, please contact our Customer Care team via:

  • in-app live chat or voice call
  • telephone: +852 2888 8228
  • e-mail: care@mox.com

In some cases, you may receive a notification that CashBack will be paid to you on an ineligible transaction. If so, you will not receive CashBack when the transaction is “complete”. Our Customer Care Team can check this for you.

Please also note that we will determine your eligibility for CashBack based on transaction records held by us. Our records are final and conclusive.

Who can enjoy the 3% CashBack rate?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

What happens to my CashBack if I return or refund the product?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

Is there a limit on how much CashBack I can earn?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

There is no upper limit on how much CashBack you may earn at the unlimited CashBack Rate. However, we may cap the amount of promotional CashBack you may earn (we call this the “Cap”). Once you earn promotional CashBack up to an applicable Cap, you may continue to earn CashBack at an applicable unlimited CashBack Rate on eligible transactions.

For the current CashBack offer details and list of selected CashBack Merchants and applicable CashBack Rates and Caps available from time to time, please refer to the CashBack table on our website.

Can I earn CashBack on overseas spending?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

Is Apple Pay with Mox Card secure?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

Using Apple Pay requires your Face ID, Touch ID or passcode for all payments. Details of your Mox Card are not shared when making payments with Apple Pay, making it one of the safest ways to pay.

Press the ‘Add to wallet’ button on the home screen, or go to the card details page in the Mox app to connect the Mox Card to Apple Pay.

Why can't I add my Mox Card to a digital wallet other than Apple Pay and Google Pay?

Can I use Apple Pay outside of Hong Kong?

Subject to the Apple terms of use, you can use Apple Pay anywhere that accepts contactless payments, in Hong Kong or abroad.

Flip between Mox Credit and Mox Account
What is the benefit of the ‘Flip’ feature for Mox Credit customers?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

‘Flip’ is a feature that gives Mox Credit customers the flexibility to choose between spending on their Mox Card with Mox Credit or from their Mox Account.

If you are a Mox Credit customer and you tap the ‘Flip’ button so that your Mox Card is linked to your Mox Account, all your spending (including any automatic payments previously set up by you on Mox Credit) will be deducted from your Mox Account.

If you are a Mox Credit customer and you don’t ‘Flip’ so that your Mox Card is linked to Mox Credit by default, all your spending will be charged to Mox Credit and show on your Mox Credit statement (except for cash withdrawals, for which we will take money out of your Mox Account unless you request a cash advance on Mox Credit). That includes any automatic payments previously set up by you while your Mox Card was linked to your Mox Account – they will also be charged to Mox Credit at the time they are due for payment if your Mox Card is linked to Mox Credit at that time.

Please note that if you do not have Mox Credit, all your spending will be deducted from your Mox Account and the ‘Flip’ feature will not be available to you.

Refer to the Mox Credit FAQ to understand how to apply for Mox Credit and have access to the ‘Flip’ feature.

How will my transactions be processed after I switch from linking my Mox Card to Mox Credit to my Mox Account using the ‘Flip’ button?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

After you tap the ‘Flip’ button in the Mox app, we will ask you to confirm that you’d like to change from spending with Mox Credit to spending on your Mox Card from your Mox Account.

Transactions

When your Mox Card is linked to your Mox Account, all your new Mox Card transactions (including any automatic payments previously set up by you on Mox Credit) will be taken from your Mox Account.

Any transactions that were authorised before you tap the ‘Flip’ button (i.e. those that appear as ‘pending’ in the Mox app) will still be processed as Mox Credit transactions.

ATM cash withdrawals

Your ATM cash withdrawals from JETCO and Mastercard ATMs are not affected when you tap the ‘Flip’ button. To avoid charges, we recommend that you select ‘Savings account’ for ATM cash withdrawals so they are withdrawn from your Mox Account. If you choose to withdraw cash from Mox Credit, that is a cash advance and so interest, fees and charges per the Mox Credit Key Facts Statement will apply.

If I want to change how I spend on my Mox Card, where can I find the ‘Flip’ button in the Mox app?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

For Mox Credit customers that want to flip between the two spending methods – with Mox Credit or from their Mox Account – there are two ways to do it:

Tap the ‘Flip’ button under the digital Mox Card image under the main page on the Mox app.

Alternatively, go to the ‘Settings’ page in the side menu of the Mox app, tap ‘Account and Mox Card settings’ then choose ‘Flip Card spending mode’.

Friendly reminder: The ‘Flip’ feature is only available on the Mox app version 1.4.1 or above. You won’t be able to see and use the ‘Flip’ feature if you are using an older Mox app version, so please remember to update your Mox app regularly.

What will happen to the ‘Flip’ button and how I spend on my Mox Card if I close Mox Credit?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

The ‘Flip’ feature is only available to Mox Credit customers. This means that if you close Mox Credit, the ‘Flip’ feature will no longer be available to you. After your Mox Credit is closed, all your future spending on your Mox Card will be taken from your Mox Account.

Can I call Mox’s Customer Care Team to change how I spend on my Mox Card?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

No, we’re sorry but our Customer Care Team is not able to change how you spend on your Mox Card. Please refer to the FAQ on where you can find the ‘Flip’ button on the Mox app for information on how you can change how you spend on your Mox Card.

After I use the ‘Flip’ button on the Mox app, which account will CashBack be credited to?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

All CashBack you earn on eligible spending is credited to your Mox Account regardless of whether the spending was with Mox Credit or from your Mox Account.

Please refer to the CashBack terms and conditions in the Mox app or on our website for more information on CashBack.

What happens to transactions that I refund after I have ‘Flipped’?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

Refunds will be credited to you in accordance with what your Mox Card is linked to at the time the refund is processed, and so not necessarily credited to what your Mox Card was linked to at the time the transaction was authorised. For example, if you refund a Mox Credit transaction and have subsequently ‘Flipped’ so that your Mox Card is linked to your Mox Account, and then refund that Mox Credit transaction, the refund amount will be deposited into your Mox Account (rather than credited to Mox Credit).

What happens to an applicable CashBack Cap and the CashBack I earned on a transaction that I subsequently refund if I have ‘Flipped’ in the meantime?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

If you refund a purchase for which you have received CashBack, we reserve the right to withdraw from your Mox Account the CashBack you received on that transaction without prior notice, and it will not matter whether (or not) you have ‘Flipped’ in the meantime. Whether or not we withdraw the CashBack amount, your utilisation of any applicable Cap will not be adjusted, and the Cap will remain unchanged.

Please refer to the CashBack terms and conditions in the Mox app or on our website or more information.

Is there a limit to the number of times that I can use the ‘Flip’ button during a period of time? Will using the ‘Flip’ button affect my credit score?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

No, there is no limit on the number of times you can use the ‘Flip’ button during a period of time. ’Flipping’ does not affect your credit score because each time you ‘Flip’ is not considered a new Mox Credit application.

I spent while my Mox Card was linked to my Mox Account yesterday, can I change that previous transaction to a Mox Credit transaction by using the ‘Flip’ button?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

No, any transactions that were authorised before you used the ‘Flip’ button will be processed based on what your Mox Card was linked to at the time those transactions were authorised and this cannot be changed. In this case, the transaction will be taken from your Mox Account.

After I tap the ‘Flip’ button, how long does it take for the change on how I would like to spend on my Mox Card to take effect?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

After you tap the ‘Flip’ button, the change will take effect immediately and all future transactions will either be charged to Mox Credit or taken from your Mox Account (depending on what you have ‘Flipped’ to).

If I want to repay my Mox Credit, do I need to flip back to Mox Credit using the ‘Flip’ button before doing so?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

No. Tapping the ’Flip’ button only affects how you spend on your Mox Card, not the payment of your Mox Credit from your Mox Account.

Can I choose to pay half of a transaction amount from my Mox Account and half with Mox Credit?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

No, only one payment method is allowed to settle a single purchase on your Mox Card - you can’t use different spending methods to settle a purchase on your Mox Card.

At the time of purchase, if your Mox Card is linked to your Mox Account, the transaction amount will be taken from your Mox Account and displayed on your Mox Account statement. However, if your Mox Card is linked to Mox Credit at the time of purchase, the transaction amount will be processed and effected as a Mox Credit transaction and displayed on your Mox Credit statement.

I use HKT Autopay Switch. What will happen if I switch from spending on my Mox Card with Mox Credit to my Mox Account using the ‘Flip’ button?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

Only Mox Credit customers can apply for HKT Autopay Switch. If you are a Mox Credit customer and have successfully set up HKT Autopay Switch on Mox Credit, the transaction will be charged to what your Mox Card is linked to at the time the transaction is processed by HKT.

That means that if you have ‘Flipped’ so that your Mox Card is linked to your Mox Account and HKT subsequently processes a transaction on your Mox Card, the transaction amount will be taken from your Mox Account and you’ll need sufficient balance in your Mox Account to settle the payment successfully. Also, you will only earn CashBack on that transaction at the Mox Card spending from Mox Account CashBack Rate and not the preferential CashBack Rate applicable to HKT Autopay Switch eligible transactions on Mox Credit.

Please refer to the CashBack terms and conditions in the Mox app or on our website for more information.

If the transaction amount is higher than my credit limit for Mox Credit or I have insufficient funds in my Mox Account, how can I use the ‘Flip’ feature to change how my Mox Card is charged?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

If the transaction exceeds your credit limit on Mox Credit or you have insufficient funds in your Mox Account for the transaction, it will be declined. We suggest that you use the ‘Flip’ button to change how your Mox Card is charged, and ensure you have sufficient funds in your Mox Account or sufficient credit limit on Mox Credit (depending on what you have ‘Flipped’ to) before making the transaction.

Does the ‘Flip’ feature have any impact on how I repay Mox Credit?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

No, the ‘Flip’ feature only impacts the way you spend and how the transaction is charged to your Mox Card. For any spending charged to Mox Credit, how you repay, your obligation to repay and the charging of any fees, charges and interest does not change, regardless of whether or not you have ‘Flipped’ to spending from your Mox Account.

For details, please refer to the Terms and conditions for Mox Card with credit and the Mox Credit Key Facts Statement.

Card dispute
Will I get my money back while a transaction is under dispute?
ArrowCreated with Sketch.

For purchases made from your Mox account, money will not be transferred back to your account until the dispute case is successfully completed. If the dispute case result is unsuccessful, a handling fee of HKD150 will be charged.
