Gamer Loan
Young Ecuadorians, like many young people around the world, often face challenges accessing traditional bank loans due to a lack of conventional collateral (eg. real estate). To bridge that inclusion gap, Banco del Pacífico launched the 'GAMER LOAN' initiative, allowing young Ecuadorians to use their gaming accounts and valuable digital assets as collateral for loans.

Three hours a night grinding WoW with your guild. Fortnite with your mates after work. Candy Crush on the commute. Whether or not you’d call yourself a gamer, you are still playing. Gaming has become an unprecedented cultural force. Massive attention, deep engagement and yet, little money invested. Need more convincing?

I’ve spent the past few years on both sides of the fence: with gaming brands, and with non-gaming brands trying to work out what to do about gaming. Along the way I kept examples. What started as a Google Doc is now an index of close to 200 of them. This is it.
I hope you’ll find it useful, reach out if you want to chat.
