Mastercard And BJ’s Team On MLB All-Star Game Promo

Mastercard, the credit card company, announced Monday (April 24) that cardholders will have a chance to win a trip for two to the 2017 MLB All-Star Game in Miami when they use a Mastercard at BJ’s Wholesale Club locations (including gas) or online at BJs.com.

In a press release, Mastercard said the promotion runs now through May 3.

To enter, cardholders have to use their Mastercard credit, debit or prepaid card at any BJ’s Club, BJ’s Gas location or at BJs.com, and they will be automatically entered for a chance to go to Miami for the game in July. Cardholders using a My BJ’s Perks Mastercard will receive two chances to win per transaction; one entry will be given to those using any other Mastercard.

To kick off the promotion, Mastercard said it will host events in select BJ’s Wholesale Club locations from April 29-30, 2017. Members will have the opportunity to learn more about the MLB All-Star Sweepstakes and participate in programs to win exciting giveaways and BJ’s gift cards.

“An exclusive experience, like the chance to attend the MLB All-Star Game provided by Mastercard, is just another way BJ’s can offer exceptional customer engagement and service,” said Stephanie Meltzer-Paul, vice president, Membership Engagement, BJ’s Wholesale Club, in the press release.

The sweepstakes’ grand prize winner will receive a four-day/three-night trip for themselves and a guest to the 2017 MLB All-Star Week, including round-trip air transportation, hotel accommodations for three nights, two tickets to the MLB All-Star FanFest, two tickets to the Gatorade All-Star Workout Day featuring the T-Mobile Home Run Derby, two tickets to the MLB All-Star Game presented by Mastercard, a tour of Miami and a $600 Mastercard prepaid card, among other things.

“The MLB All-Star Game is an incredible opportunity for baseball fans to see today’s best players in action,” said Raja Rajamannar, chief marketing and communications officer of Mastercard in the same press release. “That’s why we are so thrilled that our cardholders and BJ’s customers will have an exclusive chance to experience one of the most exciting events in sports — the Midsummer Classic.”
