16% growth in MAU on Vi app through gamified rewards

Vi app | consumer | gamification

the problem

User engagement within the Vi app was limited to transactional use cases like recharge and bill payments. Users showed little intent to explore beyond telco services, leading to plateauing MAU and low repeat engagement.

Additionally, campaign execution was inefficient, each new marketing initiative required heavy redesign and engineering effort, making it difficult to scale or iterate quickly.

the solution

Designed a scalable rewards and gamification platform to drive engagement beyond core telco journeys.


Enabled a reusable system that allowed marketing teams to launch and customize campaigns with minimal effort, while creating a simple, motivating experience for users.
