Khalti launches campaign, offers sponsored T20 World Cup trip for lucky couple

KATHMANDU: Khalti has launched a campaign offering one lucky couple a fully sponsored trip to watch the T20 World Cup live.

The campaign, titled 'Khalti Chalau, World Cup Jau' (Use Khalti, Go to World Cup), has been introduced to celebrate Nepal’s qualification for the T20 World Cup and runs from January 27 to February 23. It combines payments with a gamified card-collection experience.

Users receive a digital scratch card for valid transactions made through the Khalti app. Each scratch card contains a card of one of the 11 players from Nepal’s national team. To enter the final bumper prize draw, users must collect all 11 unique player cards.

Prizes are available at several milestones. Users receive promo codes after collecting two, five, seven and 11 unique player cards. Every 14 days, one user who has collected five unique cards will win a HONOR X9d smartphone. Those who collect all 11 cards will enter the final draw for the fully sponsored trip for one couple.

Praveen Regmi, CEO of Khalti, said, “Nepal’s qualification for the T20 World Cup is a moment of pride for all Nepalis. Through the campaign, we want to offer more than just a simple offer; we want to give users a chance to be part of this historic journey. We are very excited to take our lucky users to the stadium and let them witness the Rhinos making history live.”

Khalti said users can participate by making payments for daily services such as utility bills and mobile top-ups through the app.
