We haven’t heard back from Mastercard Canada about the Foodora news we brought to you earlier this week
but did see that as of today the offer has been pulled from Mastercard
Canada’s website. You can however still access the offer directly on
Foodora’s website here.
Seeing that it is not on Mastercard Canada’s website however leads me
to believe this offer is being removed completely and won’t be available
to use with Foodora in other countries.
