PURCHASE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A thought shared on Twitter leads to tickets to see Justin Timberlake. Following an ordinary purchase you’re surprised with new top-of-the-line speakers. These unexpected surprises and more are happening for MasterCard cardholders through our new Priceless Surprises program.
Priceless Surprises will kick off in a huge way with musician Justin Timberlake during “Music’s Biggest Night®”– the 56th GRAMMY Awards®. @Priceless will encourage cardholders to Tweet using #PricelessSurprises. People will be randomly surprised in real-time with unbelievable prizes. They’ll also be inspired to give, and share their own Priceless Surprises.
MasterCard is breaking new creative ground with this campaign and you don’t want to miss the spots that kick it all off. Collaboration between MasterCard, our partner agencies and Timberlake himself bring to life the element of surprise -- showcasing a real and unscripted surprise through a two-part storyline.
“The success of Priceless is driven by the campaign’s ability to create emotion, influence behavior, unite people and touch upon consumer passions,” said Raja Rajamannar, chief marketing officer, MasterCard. “Priceless Surprises is an evolution from celebrating priceless moments and enabling priceless experiences to inspiring Priceless in new and unexpected ways.”
