The Bank has partnered with over 330 merchants once again this year, to kick off its seasonal promotions for cardholders who can enjoy discounts at different locations on specified days or periods from mid November until the close of 2022.
Widely anticipated as the mega event of the year for cardholders, these seasonal offers also include Easy Payment Plans for up to 60 months on a range of credit card purchases, in addition to providing cardholders with the opportunity to indulge in hotel stays, self-care days, wardrobe upgrades, home makeovers, and an exciting array of shopping and entertainment options.
Commenting on the promotion, the Head of Commercial Bank’s Card Centre Mr Nishantha De Silva said:
“Our seasonal card promotions are always eagerly awaited, because of the sheer width of the offering and the quantum of the discounts.
This year, the benefits assume even greater significance given the situation in the country.
These discounts represent a tangible value addition for our cardholders.”
Commercial Bank credit and debit card holders can enjoy seasonal discounts at 146 clothing and fashion accessories partners, nine shoes and leatherwear partners, 19 jewellery partners, 28 lifestyle store partners, nine salon, spa and cosmetic boutique partners, four wristwatches and accessories partners, 58 online shopping partners, seven supermarket partners, nine healthcare partners, and two bookstores.
