The Mastercard brought the excitement of the UEFA Champions League (CL) to Ghanaian cardholders through an exclusive viewing event held at the Kempinski Hotel in Accra.
This memorable evening marked the culmination of Mastercard’s 2025 Africa Football Passion (AFP) campaign and the Spend and Win (S&W) campaign, designed to reward Mastercard cardholders for their loyalty and everyday usage.
The event was graced by distinguished guests, including the media, partners and Mastercard customers, who gathered to watch the highly anticipated final between Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan in a vibrant, high-energy setting.
The experience featured premium hospitality, engaging activities and a viewing atmosphere designed to reflect the passion of Ghanaian football fans.
Central to the event was the recognition of four winners of Mastercard’s ‘Spend and Win’ campaign, which was executed in partnership with GTBank, Consolidated Bank Ghana (CBG), GCB Bank, and National Investment Bank (NIB).
These cardholders, along with their guests, were rewarded with a fully curated, two-night luxury experience at Aqua Safari Resort.
The exclusive package included chauffeur-driven transport, premium accommodation, fine dining, wellness treatments, and a private screening of the UEFA Champions League Final, demonstrating Mastercard’s dedication to transforming everyday transactions into exceptional moments in collaboration with its valued banking partners.
“Football in Ghana is more than a sport; it is a source of national pride and unity. Through our Africa Football Passion campaign and the Spend and Win promotion, we are celebrating more than the game. We are rewarding our cardholders with experiences that are truly Priceless,” said Dr. Folasade Femi-Lawal, country manager and area business head for West Africa at Mastercard.
