Visa’s 'Typewriter' campaign reimagines the brand’s iconic tagline, 'Everywhere You Want to Be,' to resonate with today’s generation. This campaign highlights Visa’s belief that "true progress is not just about reaching a destination but about the journey and transformation along the way."
The one-minute film follows a young woman who uses her Visa transactions to explore and unlock her potential. After discovering a typewriter in a shop window, she imagines herself pursuing various career paths, from screenwriting to entrepreneurship, with each purchase symbolizing a step forward in her journey. The film culminates with her purchasing the typewriter with her Visa card, demonstrating that every transaction opens doors to new opportunities. Through this narrative, "Visa’s message is clear: opportunity is just a transaction away, and growth is about who you become during the journey."
Visa will also release 15 additional films focusing on travel, everyday spending, and e-commerce, emphasizing how Visa supports consumers' progress.
