The June festivities have already begun and, to light the fire for couples in love this São João, the will bank, digital bank with more than 7 million customers across Brazil, launches ‘Pix Elegante’. In the action, the bank presented its customers with 1 cent, as a way of encouraging the evolution of traditional “elegant mail”. Nowadays, it’s common to make a 1 cent Pix just to send a message to people. In this case, the brand offers a way to encourage passionate declarations and give credit for love. The news is being announced in a campaign created by monkey-land, which has a film and digital presence.
Will Bank’s investment in the region and on the festive date is in line with the brand’s strategy.
“We know the importance of São João for the Northeast, the region where the majority of our customers are. As a bank that has grown a lot in other parts of the country, we think it is important to continue highlighting and valuing northeastern culture, which is why we wanted to unite digital and real, in a national campaign, about love in all its forms”, says Ingrid Pereira, Brand Manager at will bank.
The campaign, which is produced by Cave and directed by Victor Versolato, features Ed Gama as the star of the action. The comedian shows all his lightness and fun in the film, which encourages statements.
“Elegant Pix is an evolution of elegant mail and was born from a very common Brazilian behavior: chatting through Pix. In 2023 alone, there were more than 35 million transfers of 0.01 cents. And all this with Ed Gama’s fun energy, it gets even better”, comments Toni Fernandes, partner and Creative Director at monkey-land.
In addition to Pix Elegante, will bank will gift a couple with a honeymoon. Until June 17th, all customers who make transactions via Pix in Amarelinho will be competing for a honeymoon worth up to R$50,000 paid by the bank.
