Kankalu Colombo Becomes Sri Lanka’s First Crypto Payment Powered Live Music Concert - Powered by CeyPay
COLOMBO, Sri Lanka – CeylonCash has partnered with Kankalu Colombo to enable crypto payments at their upcoming live music concert, marking the first time a major live music event in Sri Lanka has introduced a compliant, real-world crypto payment experience.
Through this initiative, concert-goers will be able to make payments using digital assets via CeyPay at designated merchant points, with settlement facilitated through CeylonCash's local payment infrastructure — powered by leading global payment rails.
Supporting a New Payment Culture
Commenting on the initiative, Nisal Chandrasekara, Community Lead of CeylonCash, stated:
"Live events are one of the most natural environments to introduce new payment experiences. By enabling crypto payments at Kankalu Colombo, we are giving Sri Lankan audiences a firsthand look at how digital assets can function in everyday settings. This is a practical, responsible step toward normalising crypto payments in the country — starting with the places people love most."
