A Sri Lankan has won a truly priceless opportunity to be in the thick of the spectacular action of the 2023 Rugby World Cup in France, thanks to a promotion conducted by the Commercial Bank of Ceylon and Mastercard, a worldwide partner of the event.
This is an all-inclusive four-day tour package for two that includes airfare, hotel accommodation, tickets to the 2nd semifinal match of the Rugby World Cup 2023, and Mastercard’s ‘Priceless’ access and experiences, which allow fans to get closer to the tournament and the athletes they love.
Speaking at the presentation of the two packages to the winner of the promotion, Commercial Bank’s Deputy General Manager – Retail Banking & Marketing Mr Hasrath Munasinghe said: “Commercial Bank and Mastercard have collaborated on many occasions to provide incredible experiences to our Credit Card holders.
