WeChat, global emerging mobile social communication platform, has announced a partnership with Yeo’s, a household food & beverage name in Malaysia. A result of the partnership is a contest called “Yeo’s 80 Days Drink to Cash Contest” which uses WeChat as an exclusive platform. Participants stand to win cash prizes of up to RM500,000 and 72 iPads over 80 days.

Together with over 20 other influencers, I attended an exclusive meet-up with WeChat representatives and the Yeo’s team to commemorate the launch of the contest.

For Yeo’s, it’s an unprecedented move as it embraces digital and social media platforms to engage with its customers. With WeChat, it allows customers to interact with the brand in a more fun, interactive way, and participate in the contest easily, without having to resort to conventional printed contest forms.

The contest runs for a total of 80 days, starting from 13 March to 31 May 2014. Results will be announced daily via WeChat. Thanks to WeChat there is no SMS or postage charges for consumers to participate.
