Plus500, the global multi-asset fintech group, has launched an international advertising campaign featuring Kiefer Sutherland, the Emmy and Golden Globe-winning actor, director and singer-songwriter, to raise the profile of its international brand within the growing business community.
While Plus500 already spends heavily on online advertising, the new campaign is its biggest investment yet in building its brand and growing its audience. The advertisement has been developed over the past six months by McCann Tech, the technology-focused agency of McCann Worldwide, and uses Sutherland to convey three important characteristics of Plus500’s trading platform: it is reliable, easy to use and provides traders with useful market information.
The campaign marks an important step in the growth of Plus500, listed on the London Stock Exchange in 2013 and a member of the FTSE250 index of leading companies. The campaign is centered around the idea of ”Trading with a Plus”, highlighting the market-leading mobile app that helps clients with information and insights, regardless of the breadth of their trading experience. With educational materials, risk management tools and round-the-clock customer support, Plus500 empowers traders with the skills and confidence they need to navigate a wide variety of market conditions.
Kiefer Sutherland said:
“I am delighted to lead the new global campaign for Plus500, one of the world’s leading financial trading platforms. The Plus500 team have been great working partners and I had a lot of fun shooting the ad with McCann Tech.
David Zruia, CEO of Plus500, said:
“We are delighted to be working with Kiefer on the launch of our new advertising campaign. We were looking for a globally recognized brand ambassador known for playing characters who exude confidence, confidence and experience. Kiefer was a natural choice.
“The growth and success of Plus500 over the past few years provides the company with a great opportunity to support millions of merchants. We are expanding globally, have entered the US and Japanese markets and will continue to expand the range of products we offer as part of our mission to become a leading multi-asset fintech group.
The ad will run on TV, YouTube and on Plus500’s website and social media. The campaign will also be shown on billboards in London, Milan and Sydney.
