Alexander Stewart × Credit Karma

It might seem a little weird to hear about financial responsibility from a musician... until you realize that it's a lot easier to follow your dreams (like recording an album or launching your first world tour) when you've got your finances in order.

Financial Freedom. Following Dreams.

Campaign Highlights

  • Industry: Financial
  • Product: Credit Karma App
  • Geographics: Nationwide
  • Demographics: Gen Zers
  • Objectives: Awareness (primary), Conversions (secondary)

Working with MAX, Credit Karma teamed up with singer-songwriter Alexander Stewart to share some financial wisdom with his Gen Z audience, showing them that mastering your money shouldn't be harder than writing a hit single.

We love a good challenge, so when Credit Karma asked us to prove that an awareness campaign could actually drive down-funnel KPIs (like app downloads), we were excited to get it done.

On-Trend & Platform-Custom Content

With content that feels native to each social platform, this fun, on-trend campaign uses Alexander's real-life financial journey to drive brand awareness and new Credit Karma sign-ups. 

Content shows Alexander participating in the viral TikTok "this or that" challenge, talking with his manager about upcoming video shoots, and having a conversation with a past version of himself. Alexander Stewart's natural charm and authentic personality shine through in relatable, educational social videos.
