Likewise, if you have successfully deposited the cheque with us or other institutions, you are unable to use Mobile Cheque Deposit. If any ineligible application is found, the Bank reserves the right to revoke the deposit.

For Hang Seng Bank or HSBC cheque(s) issuer, you may receive SMS and e-mail notifications on the next day (Saturday inclusive) after the cheque receiver has deposited such cheque(s) via Mobile Cheque Deposit on a settlement day. Once you have received the notifications, you can confirm the latest settlement status by logging on and checking your latest balance under Account Overview on Hang Seng Business Mobile App or Hang Seng Business e-Banking via desktop.

If the cheque receiver deposits multiple cheques issued by you in his / her Current Account via Mobile Cheque Deposit, you will only receive SMS and e-mail notifications once per day.

If you have not registered for Hang Seng Business e-Banking, the corresponding SMS and e-mail notifications will only be sent to the contact person of your account, namely the Authorised Signer.

 

Please pay attention to the below tips when you are capturing the cheque image:

  • Make sure you have allowed the app to access your camera;
  • Make sure you have placed the cheque on a plain and dark background to avoid reflection;
  • Make sure you have kept the cheque within the white frame and wait until the green progress status circle fills up.

No, Mobile Cheque Deposit is free of charge.

In view of safeguarding the interests of both cheque issuer and receiver, the Bank reserves the right to revoke the deposit due to blurry cheque image.

Please ensure the image is complete and identifiable before submitting the deposit instruction.
