Presales with Ocesa
The bank’s CEO also said that the agreement with Ocesa to pre-sell concerts was renewed last February and that they have the best offer.
Ocesa signed an agreement with HSBC so that the bank can also offer pre-sales for concerts and events.
“The agreement and proximity that we have with Ocesa has been going on for 30 years, it is an agreement that we renewed in February and this allowed us to strengthen the offer of credit cards. There is no other agreement as comprehensive, there is no other pre-sale agreement larger in the market. It doesn’t depend on whether there is one concert or another,” Romo said.
