Sprite & Blu Approved 1st-Party Data Acquisition Campaign 2026

Campaign Blueprint

How It Works: Clear Value Exchange

The Sprite & Blu Approved campaign allows qualifying South African consumers to enter 100% DataFREE across zero-rated web (sprite.blu.deals) and USSD (*134*1234#) channels. The mechanic operates on an instant-reward and progressive prize ladder:

1. Complete Basic Entry (Name + Cell Number)
You Receive: 1 entry into the Grand Prize draws (PlayStation 5, iPhone 17, Samsung Galaxy) and automatic qualification for the R1,000 Daily Blu Voucher Drops.
2. Provide Verified Email Address (Optional)
You Receive: A guaranteed R5 Blu Voucher digital PIN delivered via SMS to your registered cellphone number upon email verification (strictly limited to the first 10,000 unique verifications).
3. Share via WhatsApp Referral Link
You Receive: 1 bonus entry for each friend who accesses the zero-rated portal via your link and completes valid profile registration.
4. How the R1,000 Daily Blu Voucher Drops Work
Mechanic: Every day for 60 consecutive days, an audited digital draw selects winners from all active, valid mobile numbers registered to date. The daily R1,000 pool is distributed directly to the winners' registered SIM cards via instant automated network recharge vouchers.
