Taca Fogo 2022:

Shaking Up Black Friday with Burger King

Overview

Working Consulting partnered with Burger King to launch the Taca Fogo campaign for Black Friday 2022, introducing an innovative and interactive way for customers to win exclusive prizes. By simply shaking their phones, users could unlock surprises, creating an exciting gamified experience that led to record-breaking sales of R$1 billion in net revenue.

The Challenge

Black Friday is a fiercely competitive period in the fast-food industry. Burger King needed a highly engaging, digital-first campaign that would capture consumer attention, drive foot traffic, and boost app engagement—all while staying true to the brand’s bold and playful identity.

Our Solution

We developed an interactive, mobile-first experience that encouraged customer participation through gamification. Key elements of the campaign included:

1. Shake-to-Win Mechanic

Users were invited to shake their smartphones to unlock exclusive Black Friday deals, discounts, and surprise gifts.

The mechanic leveraged smartphone motion sensors, creating a fun and highly shareable experience.

Rewards included free burgers, discounts, and limited-time menu items.


2. Seamless App Integration

The Burger King app was the core of the campaign, ensuring a smooth, intuitive, and rewarding experience.

The campaign drove a massive increase in app downloads and user retention.

Personalized offers encouraged repeat purchases throughout the promotional period.
