Overview

Execution

Amex EveryDay Credit Card Members who use the card 20 or more times on purchases in a billing cycle can earn 20% extra Membership Rewards points. The creative served to bring this to life by ending all communications with, 'What’s your 20?'

Everyone’s ‘20’ is different and shows us who they are. The advertising, highlights Tina Fey’s 20. We worked closely to learn what her 20 are, and bring them to life in an engaging and humorous way that speaks to the target.

The creative presents American Express in a new, more inclusive light, without losing the brand’s aspirational quality.
