Card-based 0% installment
EASIEST 0% APRCredit card installment plans accepted at point of sale. Most HK banks offer 6 or 12-month 0% interest installment on furniture purchases over HKD 5,000.
HKD 53,600 install (Tin Hau couple example) at 12-month 0% installment:
- 30% deposit (HKD 16,080) at contract sign — paid on credit card
- 70% balance (HKD 37,520) at install completion — split into 12 × HKD 3,127/month
- Total interest paid: HKD 0
Bank-specific notes:
- HSBC PremierMaster / Visa Signature: 6 or 12 months 0%, no admin fee. Most flexible.
- BoC HK Card: 12-month 0% standard. Slightly stricter credit limit assessment.
- Citi HK Premier: 6-month 0% standard. Best for HKD 30-50k spending.
- Standard Chartered: 12-month 0% but 1% admin fee one-time. Effectively ~0.08% effective rate.

Option 2 — Bank personal loan

Option 3 — Standard 30/70 split (no financing)
Cash payment at standard milestones
SIMPLEST no feesMost common for cash-rich buyers:
- 30% deposit on contract sign: HKD 16,080 for typical Queen install. Refundable within 14 days if production hasn't started.
- 70% on install completion: HKD 37,520. Paid via FPS / bank transfer / credit card / cheque after final acceptance.
Some buyers prefer 50/50 split (50% on contract, 50% on completion). We accommodate.
Option 4 — Corporate relocation budget
Employer-paid via global mobility programs
EXPAT employer-paidMany expat HK relocation packages cover HKD 30,000-50,000 in furniture / setup costs. Wall bed install often qualifies as "essential furniture for new flat".
We've worked with global mobility partners including Mercer, SIRVA, Cartus context. Process:
- Expat or family receives relocation budget letter from employer
- Wall Bed by Design quotes the install
- Receipt provided in format suitable for employer reimbursement (or direct corporate AP invoice)
- W-9 / equivalent tax forms provided on request
Option 5 — Property staging finance (sellers)
Wall bed install reimbursed at flat sale
SELLERS reimbursed at saleFor HK property sellers preparing flat for resale, wall bed installation adds 1.8-3.2% sale premium (Centaline 2024 Renovation Premium Index). For an HKD 8M flat that's HKD 144,000-256,000 — the wall bed pays for itself at sale.
Some HK property staging firms now offer "deferred payment" — wall bed install at HKD 0 upfront, paid from sale proceeds. We've worked with 2-3 staging firms on this model.
Option 6 — Expat international wire transfer
Pre-arrival install for incoming HK expats
PRE-ARRIVAL USD/EUR/GBP/SGD acceptedFor expats not yet arrived in HK, international wire transfer is standard. We accept USD / EUR / GBP / SGD via SWIFT to HK bank.
Process:
- Send floor plan from origin country (3 months pre-arrival)
- Video consultation + remote 3D rendering
- 30% deposit via international wire (3-5 working days clear)
- Production happens while you're abroad (4-6 weeks)
- Estate management approval submitted with your authorization signature
- 70% balance via wire on install completion (after you've moved in)

- Lease-to-own — not offered. We don't retain ownership after install.
