Visa on Tuesday announced that it has introduced a new platform showcasing exclusive Visa offers made available in Sri Lanka for its cardholders.

As the festive season commences to celebrate the Sinhala & Tamil New Year, it usually means consumers look for better value for money and special offers on their cards; hence, this new platform comes as an incentive for shoppers, Visa said in a media release.

Special offers for Visa debit and credit card holders are made available on an exclusive platform called Visa SL Offers. These offers are valid for both consumer (retail) as well as commercial (business) Visa cardholders. Moreover, there are a variety of discounts available throughout the year, on both domestic and international merchants, that such Visa card holders can use online or in-store.

Commenting on the launch of the offers platform, Avanthi Colombage, Country Manager, Sri Lanka and Maldives, Visa says, “April marks a special time when the people of Sri Lanka celebrate Avurudu and during the season, consumers look for the best shopping offers available. We are delighted to meet this need by launching an exclusive platform of offers for our consumers, so when you pay with your Visa cards, you save while you spend. The platform is easy to navigate, allowing Visa cardholders to search, select and redeem offers across an array of merchants. We hope to make this Avurudu season more enjoyable for our cardholders through savings and discounts offered through this platform.”

Consumers can browse through offers across sectors such as retail, wellness, hotels, travel, telcos, utilities, healthcare, insurance, etc. and avail discounts online as well as at offline stores of their choice.
