Pay thru’ Nagad, win BPL tickets
Nagad, a prominent mobile money operator in the country, is giving cricket fans a chance to win Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) tickets simply by shopping for Tk 2,000 or more through the state-owned mobile financial services provider.
To participate, customers can make their purchases either through the Nagad app or by dialing *167#, or by paying online at selected merchants that have partnered with Nagad, as stated in a press release.
To claim their BPL tickets, winners will have to go to ticket.nagad.com.bd and input the required information. The campaign, which will take place from January 25 to February 16, will allow each customer to win a maximum of two tickets.
The tickets can be collected from the Nagad booth located near Gate-1 of the Sher-e-Bangladesh National Cricket Stadium.
According to the campaign’s terms and conditions, customers are eligible to receive tickets from various categories, while supplies last. Once the tickets have been sold out, the campaign will no longer be in effect.
