The Campaign

To launch the new brand, we turned the younger generation’s power to build the future into a digital experience with a cross-platform campaign: Shift to a Better Future. The campaign consisted of two timelines, the present and a future made possible with the opportunities of the bank. At the heart of the campaign lies our interactive video where the users can shift between these timelines to see how they can make their dream future a reality.

Creative Execution

We’ve used an innovative way to make this concept available on mobile 360° technology. So, when you rotate your phone to left you see the present day of the story, whereas when you rotate right you shift to the future in real time. This was an organic experience on the platform and also a first on mobile. Through this, we want to emphasize the potential of the Saudi youth and how Alawwal Bank can make their dream future into a reality.

The campaign performed excellently with 46 million impressions and reached more than %80 of the population. The 360° video generated over 4.6 million views. After the campaign, 50% of the new users of the bank’s website were from the target group.

The target audience was the Saudi millennials. Alawwal Bank considers the youth as the leaders of the next generation. With a renewed focus in banking, the bank aims to support the Saudi youth to make them discover their potential and make their dreams come true for the future.
