Lazada Group - Lazada 11.11 Campaign


The Lazada Group was the first e-commerce player in Southeast Asia to participate in a Gamified HTC for their 11.11 campaign. They also participated in TikTok's marketing team project, TikTokTreats, and featured the Gamified HTC as one of the key tasks for the community to earn points in order to redeem Lazada vouchers. 


OCBC Bank Indonesia - OCBC #Save20s Challenge


Through its #Save20 Hashtag Challenge, OCBC NISP Bank successfully challenged the Indonesian youth to save 20K Rupiahs daily. The bank found a Branded Hashtag Challenge to be the right solution to achieve their goal of communicating one very clear message - Save and you will reap the benefits. The challenge also ensured that this message resonates, resulting in a higher brand recall.


With the help of Branded Effects, OCBC NISP Bank gave participants a sneak peek of the positive results of saving 20K Rupiahs each day. By doing one of three hand gestures, the Branded Effect would pop up and display one of three prospective outcomes: a trip to Paris; a business opportunity that lands them on a "30 under 30" list; or an opportunity to buy a big ticket item such as jewelry. 


Mirinda Thailand - #สนุกซ่าไม่มีซ้ำ


Mirinda Thailand's Branded Hashtag Challenge, #สนุกซ่าไม่มีซ้ำ ("#UniquelyFun" in English), was centered around a fun gesture-activated Branded Effect accompanied by a catchy branded song. The Branded Effect featured bold, eye-catching visuals, bright colors and a hard-to-forget background track designed to catch the attention of both the eyes and ears of viewers. 

To make it even more fun, Mirinda encouraged participants to change their outfits to match or complement the colors of each soda flavor, and express themselves through dance. To keep things simple, the choreography itself could be improvised, allowing each user to interpret the challenge in their own way. The Branded Hashtag Challenge was also paired with TopView and In-Feed Ads to help notify communities throughout TikTok of the ongoing campaign.


Bayer Vietnam - #BeroccaMango2PM HTC Campaign


Berocca® Performance launched the #BeroccaMango2PM Hashtag Challenge on TikTok, inviting participants to join the #BeroccaMango2PM dance set to hip and catchy music. A Branded Hashtag Challenge is fun and exciting, similar to the jolt of energy you feel from an energy booster, making it perfect for this campaign. 


At around 2PM, when people start to experience the afternoon slump, is the time when an extra hit of energy is most needed. Fittingly, Berocca® wanted to tie this hour to its Berocca® Performance Mango drink so that when 2PM rolls around and the inevitable fatigue sets in, the first energy supplement that comes to mind is Berocca® Performance.
