Visa | Go Football | Global

Visa, the official partner of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, has released its global 'Go Football' marketing campaign.

An Asian version of the campaign will hit Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea and Taiwan this month. Created by TBWAChiatDay in Los Angeles, the TV spot titled 'Anthem’ is a collection of people’s emotions across the world. Countries are united with their shared passion for football under the umbrella of the
FIFA festival.

The project will run across 30 markets with a degree of localisation. The campaign tagline varies along with the national flags according to the 32 qualifying countries. The campaign soundtrack is sung by the choir at the Agape Orphanage in Durban, South Africa.

“Football fans are unlike any other sports fans in the world," said Antonio Lucio, chief marketing officer at Visa. "We’ve created a campaign that captures these fans’ inspirational passion for the game, taps into their nationalistic pride and reminds them how Visa can help enhance their experience."
