RAKBANK and Bitpanda Boost Visibility with Bold Die Cut Bridge Banners in Dubai

RAKBANK and Bitpanda rolled out a striking outdoor campaign in Dubai, using creative die cut bridge banners across key city roads. RAKBANK, a leading retail and business bank in the UAE, partnered with Bitpanda, a dynamic European fintech platform for digital asset trading, to deliver a message that is clear, simple and impossible to miss.

The creative execution featured giant zeros with the clear bilingual message “Buy crypto in AED. Pay zero fees” written in both English and Arabic. By focusing on simplicity, the campaign communicated a powerful benefit to drivers and commuters without relying on complex crypto jargon.

Why Die Cut Bridge Banners Stood Out

Dubai’s arterial roads, especially Sheikh Zayed Road, carry some of the heaviest traffic in the UAE with up to 250,000 vehicles daily. Die cut bridge banners stretched across these busy routes ensured maximum exposure and strong dwell time. The creative cut-outs gave the campaign a distinctive edge compared to flat banner executions.

Key advantages of die cut bridge banners include:

• Extended dwell time as vehicles slow near junctions and crossings
• Impactful scale that stretches across the entire bridge structure
• Memorable brand recall through custom shapes and cut-outs
• 24/7 visibility with premium lighting that keeps messaging active day and night
• Unbeatable exposure on high-density routes and busy highways.

For financial brands like RAKBANK and Bitpanda, the format brings premium visibility and positions the campaign at the heart of Dubai’s urban flow.

Outdoor Advertising in Dubai Continues to Grow

The UAE is a regional hub for international trade, fintech and tourism. With Dubai’s population surpassing 3.6 million and road traffic increasing year on year, the demand for creative outdoor formats is higher than ever. According to regional reports, OOH channels account for over 30% of ad spend in the UAE, showing strong confidence in their effectiveness.

Die cut bridge banners are part of the growing family of creative formats that are redefining outdoor advertising in Dubai. When combined with other OOH formats such as unipoles, lampposts, billboards and digital OOH, they provide citywide presence and amplify campaign impact.

Why Fintech Brands Choose OOH in the UAE

For financial services and fintech brands like RAKBANK and Bitpanda, physical visibility builds trust. Here are the top reasons why these brands choose out of home advertising:

• High Visibility in Financial Hubs: Dubai is home to major financial districts, making OOH placements effective for targeting decision-makers, investors and professionals.
• Trust through Physical Presence: OOH formats give fintech brands a sense of permanence and credibility in markets where consumers value financial security.
• Reaching a Diverse Population: With over 200 nationalities living in the UAE, OOH ensures brands connect with a wide demographic without language or platform barriers.
• Integration with Digital Strategies: Fintech firms can link OOH with programmatic and mobile campaigns, driving traffic to apps and websites through QR codes or geo-targeted messaging.
• Constant Exposure in High-Traffic Areas: Sheikh Zayed Road, airport routes and metro stations deliver continuous exposure, giving fintech brands unmatched visibility and brand recall throughout the day.
