Whether it’s taking on bad networks, data capping, high prices or hidden fees, Boost is always on the side of our hard-working customers, no matter where they happen to go—even if it’s into galactic space.

The Engagement

Since we know that mass transit users spend a lot of time on their devices, we took over three subway stations in the New York area with our invitation to join Galactic Thunder Pony in his fight. Banners and wild posting-style recruitment messages revealed Mr. Pony’s foes and included convenient access for commuters to join the fight through Snapchat via Snapcode, letting users pass an otherwise mind-numbing commute in full 32-bit entertainment. Targeted Snapchat and digital campaigns also ran, leading fans to play on the Snapchat platform or on a web application.
