Flybuys deploys robot for ‘Don’t Buy It, Flybuy It’ campaign, via Thinkerbell

In an effort to help Australians save some cash by purchasing goods with its points, Flybuys has launched a campaign that centres on a persuasive robot, via indie advertising agency Thinkerbell.

The customer loyalty program’s ‘Don’t Buy It, Flybuy It’ campaign, first launched in October, uses a 30-second hero film directed by The Sweetshop’s Phoebe Schmidt.
