The Challenge

Converting matchday footfall into real app orders

As an official UEFA sponsor, Just Eat wanted to go beyond brand visibility and TV ads to drive measurable customer acquisition. The PSG vs Dortmund Champions League semifinal in Paris (May 2024) offered the perfect stage: tens of thousands of hungry fans gathered at Parc des Princes. The challenge was converting that footfall into real app orders at the exact moment excitement and appetite were highest.

Their objectives were to:

Campaign objectiveMatchday Activation
  1. 01Activate engaged football fans with timely offers
  2. 02Turn stadium sponsorship into measurable customer growth
  3. 03Prove offline activations as a high-ROI acquisition channel
  4. Target geographyParis, France
The Solution

Hand to hand (H2H)

Strategy

Oppizi deployed Brand Ambassadors to distribute flyers in high-footfall zones nearby and directly inside the venue on match day. Flyers included limited-time discount codes designed to drive app orders immediately after the game.

Why it was chosen

Reaching fans during a Champions League semifinal captured attention at peak excitement and appetite. Hand-to-hand flyering added a human touch that digital couldn’t, while real-time tracking proved ROI with measurable redemptions. Food delivery is also the category where flyering converts fastest, because it reaches people exactly when they are hungry and deciding what to eat, a moment digital ads rarely catch. And since ordering is a habit fans repeat, a single match-day drop could turn game-day energy into returning customers, not just one-off orders.

Campaign Results

In a single match-day activation, Just Eat: For 6 years, Oppizi and Just Eat have partnered on several offline activations across Paris, both during football matches and via city-wide campaigns. Together, we have distributed more than 463,000 flyers, consistently converting sports fans and urban audiences into loyal Just Eat customers.
