After Germany, Wero, the “made in Europe” mobile payment system, is arriving in Belgium. Objective: compete with the American giants

Humorous spots

To support this international launch, the brand chose the French agency Buzzman from the Havas group, which imagined a global multimedia campaign contextualized according to the culture of each market where EPI offers Wero. It is based around a single message: speed, a major advantage of the solution since transactions take place in less than 10 seconds with a simple telephone number or email address.

The campaign was initially launched in and Germany with a series of humorous spots which parody the codes of popular television genres to better divert them. The idea: to show that if 10 seconds of extracts from Star Singer, Les fadas sur la Costa, Au detour de l’amour or Chef oui chef! are not enough to discover a hook , a reality TV, a romantic soap or a cooking show, it is enough to send money with Wero.

Buzzman also uses the mechanics on social networks, by destroying influencer content in 10 seconds: unboxing, tutorials, gastronomic reviews, etc. Everything is encapsulated in the signature I need a Wero, accompanied by a reinterpretation of Bonnie Tyler’s hit Holding out for a hero. The device is completed by display, classic and digital.
