Eftpos crowns customers kings of financial destiny

Eftpos has launched a new campaign led by a TV ad that positions Aussies as controllers of their own spending.

The campaign by M&C Saatchi sees regular Australians portrayed as kings or queens of their financial destiny with Eftpos encouraging consumers to pay with their own money, rather than rely on credit.

The positioning comes as 73% of Australians with credit cards continue to roll over their balances each month to pay interest, the campaign claims.

Neera Manawakul, Eftpos head of marketing, said: “We all want to have control over our finances. This campaign is about taking command by using your own money. People are looking for simple things to stay on top and eftpos’ one-touch chq and sav buttons is a simple way to be in control. That’s why ‘eftpos is the way Australia pays’.”
