The key focus of this campaign is to drive awareness of the kulula credit card in a relevant environment. Reinforcing the brand when the consumer is making a transaction emphasises the benefits of using a kulula credit card. The kulula card can be swiped anywhere and will earn money back in the form of kulula moolah, which can be exchanged for free flights.
As Megan Hainsworth kulula's brand specialist says, “We were looking for an effective ambient medium to drive the kulula credit card.
Billads provided that platform, presenting the kulula credit card to consumers at the point of purchase, the most relevant and impactful time to communicate our message.”
Kulula is currently running a promotion; every R1000 spent on the kulula credit card in the first month will earn the user R200 back in kulula moolah. Kulula moolah can be used towards any kulula flight, at any time and to any kulula destination.
With the line, “give your waiter a good tip, tell him to get a kulula credit card”, kulula uses their trademark humourous approach to engage consumers. With the prevalence of loyalty programmes, kulula recognises that simple, easy-to-achieve rewards are appreciated.
