IKEA lets real-life changes pay for furniture

This autumn, IKEA Sweden’s campaign “Wherever life goes”, which highlights the many changes people go through in life, has been widely recognised. Now, IKEA and its agency NoA Åkestam Holst are adding an unusual twist by letting customers turn real-life changes into new home solutions.

Life is constantly evolving, and as it does, homes need to keep up. With this new initiative, IKEA Family members in Sweden can register a life change they are experiencing and receive IKEA Family points to use on home furnishing solutions.

On IKEA.se/poäng, members can choose from 21 different life-change categories and submit proof that they are going through one of them. Once approved, points are added directly to their IKEA Family account, helping them update their homes to match new needs.

Examples of life changes include:

  • Got dumped? Submit the breakup text and get points for a comfort blanket.
  • Broke your leg? Submit a photo of your cast and get points for a bed tray.
  • Newly married? Submit your wedding photo and get points for a matching set of bed lamps.

The initiative is created by NoA Åkestam Holst together with IKEA Sweden.
