“Money can’t buy” surprises with McDonald’s Surprize Fries enabled by tms

McDonald’s Surprize Fries returned to Australia and New Zealand with more surprises than ever before from March 5 to April 1. The ever-popular activation is enabled through the transformational technology of iWin, the proprietary game engine tms designed and manage.
The famous peel returns from last year with each order of fries, only this time the promotion features an improved one in three chances for customers to win free food, exclusive merchandise, gift cards from their favorite brands, and cash prizes. To play, customers simply remove the peel from their fries to reveal an instant prize or a code that can be scanned in the McDonald’s app for gamified reveals, resulting in a reward or an entry to a weekly prize sweepstakes.
This time, players in Australia get a doubly exciting, gamified experience each week during the month-long promotion, as McDonald’s will unveil a new Surprize Prize, featuring exciting “money can’t buy” experiences to delight customers and celebrate unsung hero of every McDonald’s meal – the fries.
We know value is more important than ever with our customers. This year, Surprize Fries introduces extra anticipation, with millions of prizes to win, as well as a surprising new experience each week. Make sure you visit Macca’s and purchase a Medium or Large Fries for your chance to win!
The new experience is delivered seamlessly using tms’ iWin proprietary game engine technology, which delivers secure and scalable engaging customer experiences.
