ComBank champions QR innovation at Dambulla

View(s):

The Commercial Bank of Ceylon recently reaffirmed its position as a trailblazer in digital payments and one of the main drivers of the Central Bank of Sri Lanka’s (CB) island-wide initiative to promote QR payments, when it actively championed QR-based financial transactions at the CBSL ‘Pay Digital Dambulla’ Promotional Campaign.

Held at the Dambulla Dedicated Economic Centre – one of Sri Lanka’s busiest wholesale and retail hubs – the campaign was a significant milestone in advancing cashless payment adoption in rural and semi-urban regions, the bank said in a media release. Recognising the importance of Dambulla as a high-volume trading location attracting merchants and customers from across the island, Commercial Bank undertook a series of intensive pre-event merchant engagement activities in the area. These included targeted awareness programmes, on-site training sessions, and direct merchant onboarding drives that successfully prepared a large number of vendors – from small-scale fruit and vegetable sellers to large wholesale distributors – to accept QR payments from both local and international customers.

As a result of this groundwork, many Dambulla merchants were equipped to seamlessly accept payments via LANKAQR, Visa QR, MasterCard QR, UnionPay QR, WeChat Pay QR, Alipay QR, and India’s UPI QR, giving them one of the most comprehensive QR acceptance capabilities in the country. To further encourage adoption, Commercial Bank introduced exclusive offers during the campaign, including customer discounts of up to 25 per cent and merchant reward programmes designed to incentivise repeat transactions and build confidence in digital payment systems. These measures directly supported CB’s vision of extending QR payment usage into key economic zones outside major cities.
