HSBC highlights real customer stories in latest mobile app campaign with dentsu GBA

June 19, 2025

Hong Kong – Following the success of last year’s campaign, HSBC has once again partnered with dentsu GBA to launch a new initiative spotlighting its continued commitment to seamless, customer-focused mobile banking experiences.

Titled ‘We’ve Made it Better’, the campaign showcases how HSBC’s updated mobile banking app helps users navigate everyday hurdles with greater ease. Emphasising small but meaningful moments, the campaign explores how digital tools can play a supportive role in real-life situations.

The campaign opens with a teaser that introduces a range of everyday challenges faced by Hong Kongers, prompting the reflective question, “How do we help them? ” Through a series of short films, it presents snapshots of personal experiences, each demonstrating how HSBC’s app features can assist in unexpected ways.

In “Another Round”, a man finds himself having to pay for a large bar tab, swiftly managing the situation by transferring his credit limit through the app. In “Bend It”, a father considers the cost of sending his son abroad to pursue football, using the app’s Future Planner tool to weigh his options—ultimately deciding to delay retirement to support his child’s dream.

“Double Plaster” depicts a man with both arms in casts completing his banking needs via facial authentication, while “Run” shows a woman chasing down a wallet thief and contacting HSBC for help using the app’s live chat function.

Each story takes a light-hearted but grounded approach, offering a warm, relatable view of how technology can respond to real human needs. The campaign will roll out across television, social media, and HSBC’s branch network.

Jeffry Gamble, chief creative officer for GBA and Hong Kong at dentsu, added, “Collaborating with HSBC has allowed us to showcase the authentic experiences of their customers. Every dedicated detail that impacts people’s lives comes to life through a world-class production team spanning three different continents.”
