Hugo Platinum Visa Debit Card

Hugo Platinum Visa Debit Card

The Hugo card is FREE. Neither are there any fees associated with owning/using the Card. When you use your card overseas, the foreign exchange rates are based on Visa’s FX rates and Hugo does not add any additional fees.

Check out how to order your Hugo card in 2 taps:

Security features

The physical Hugo Platinum Visa Debit Card is numberless, designed to reduce fraud risk and ensure safety of your transactions. For online transaction, you can find your card details and PIN from within the app.

Roundups feature

Every time you spend on your Hugo debit card, Hugo rounds up your purchase to the nearest dollar and puts the excess into savings.

“Each week the accumulated Roundups are invested into your Gold Vault automatically”

Gold Vault

With Gold vault, users can monitor live gold prices and buy or sell gold for any amount.

“You get physical gold allocated to you against your investment which is stored in an accredited LBMA (London Bullion Market Association) vault. Insured by Lloyds of London, your gold is safe and secure.”

Money Pots

A tool to set financial goals, automate your savings towards them, and track your progress. Find out more about Money Pots here.

Experience sharing

I have actually sign up for Hugo for more than a year, but only decided to share the referral promotion after they received the regulatory license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore in April 2022.

Funding the Hugo Platinum Visa Debit Card

Each user has a unique DBS bank account created to act as the custodian for the debit card funds. I used FAST transfer to deposit into the account and it was reflected instantaneously in the Hugo app.
