I think I got my answer. Reading
Fast track your way to Aeroplan 50K Status with the HSBC Star Alliance Credit Card dot point #6:
Earn 30,000 welcome bonus Aeroplan® points (the “Welcome Bonus”) when you spend $4,000 AUD or more on Eligible Purchases in your first 90 days from account opening with your HSBC Star Alliance Credit Card. Only Primary cardholders that apply and are approved for a new HSBC Star Alliance Credit Card between December 1st, 2025 to March 3rd 2026, and receive Aeroplan 50K Status after nominating Air Canada as their Status Airline through the Star Alliance Rewards Program will be eligible for the Welcome Bonus (more information available on the
Star Alliance Rewards Terms and ConditionsExternal site which may not meet accessibility guidelines and/or language preferences.).
This line answers my question, if I can get 30000 Aero and 40000 Star alliance points. The answer is no
its either:
Option 1: 30000 Aeroplan + Gold
Option2: 40000 Star alliance points only
seems bit different to krisflyer deal you mentioned earlier.
