Mumbai: “Mujhe beach pe chappal ghum hone ka trauma hai”, “Tum logon ne jo hotel book kiya hai uska vaastu galat hai”, “I need to save for my favourite sneakers. Trip kiya toh sneakers bhul jao” are some Bahanas all of us make in our daily lives to back out of social gatherings and holidays. Recognizing the challenges that festivities and year-end parties pose on finances, leaving individuals to conjure up excuses and appear like a reluctant partygoer, Fibe launched an exciting campaign #BasBahane.

The campaign aims to enhance brand recall for Fibe among individuals, reminding them of the instant personal loan offerings they can access and not back out of any plans due to financial crunch.

As part of the campaign, Fibe has collaborated with Swiggy Instamart to deliver ‘Ab Tak Chappan: The Bahana Guide’ along with every order by individuals across Mumbai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, NCR, Pune and Chandigarh. The concise handbook comprises 56 creative excuses to avoid plans and trips with friends. In order to encourage users to participate in the campaign, Fibe will give a lucrative cash prize to an individual who makes the most creative 57th excuse and shares it on social media.  

Besides, Fibe has also collaborated with over 25 digital influencers to further amplify this campaign.  

Commenting on this campaign, Fibe founding member and head of marketing Sudesh Shetty said, “#BasBahane is not just a campaign; it is a journey where financial empowerment meets creativity. At Fibe, we don’t just offer financial aid to individuals, but ensure that no individual compromises on their aspirations and lifestyle. We keep finding creative ways to communicate our brand’s key proposition to our audience. This is yet another ‘out-of-the-box’ campaign to remind individuals that with Fibe’s instant personal loans, they can say ‘yes’ to every plan without holding back.”
