Charles Sik, Managing Director, Personal Financial Services of HLB said,”Watching a movie should be a hassle-free and enjoyable moment shared with family and friends, and so it is important for us to update our card value proposition to reward our loyal cardholders and to enable more movie-goers to enjoy movies without worrying about the terms and conditions. With the updated HLB GSC Credit Card, movie-goers can truly have real rewarding movie experiences, every day for all movies at GSC cinemas, with no strings attached.”


For GSC, this new card complements the digital journey of customers purchasing their tickets online. While the traditional ticketing option is available, GSC’s online platforms namely the GSC Website and GSC Mobile App (for iOS and Android) has been the enabler of greater convenience and gratifying rewards for cardholders.


Ms. Koh Mei Lee, Chief Executive Officer of GSC said, “As the leading cinema exhibitor in the country, GSC is constantly innovating to provide customers enriching cinema experiences that they can enjoy at their convenience and at the best value.
