The Challenge

Scaling acquisition across 10+ markets

As one of the world’s leading food delivery platforms, Uber Eats had already built strong brand recognition through its app ecosystem and global restaurant partnerships. But recognition alone wasn’t enough. Growth depended on consistently converting new users into active customers.

In the hyper-competitive food delivery space, Uber Eats needed a scalable way to acquire customers beyond digital channels. Rising online ad costs, crowded competition from other delivery apps, and limited cut-through in some local markets made it essential to find a cost-effective, measurable channel to fuel sustained growth.

The Solution

Hand to hand (H2H)

Strategy

Oppizi deployed brand ambassadors in high-traffic urban zones near transport hubs, shopping areas to engage potential customers face-to-face. Flyers featured unique QR codes and localized discount offers designed to trigger immediate first orders.

Why it was chosen

Flyering allowed Uber Eats to meet high-intent audiences in the moment, creating personal interactions that digital ads couldn’t replicate. This built trust, drove urgency, and delivered immediate redemptions.
