Visa has newly launched a new Financial Football competition designed to teach you some money management skills. This is targeted to the younger generation of Malaysia.
As football is one of the worlds most popular sports, Visa is helping to teach financial concepts with Financial Football, a fast-paced, interactive online video game that seeks to engage students and young adults.
To make learning more rewarding, Visa is also giving away a trip to the Confederations Cup Final in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil as the grand prize.
Launched at the University Malaya, the Visa Financial Football Malaysia 2013 online competition which will be accessible through www.my.financialfootball.com and starts today till 2 April 2013.
The top ten scorers will be invited to compete at the Grand Final in April for a chance to win the trip to Brazil. Open to all Malaysians aged 18 and above, permanent residents of Malaysia, or those who hold a Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) status, the competition uses an educational video game accompanied by a classroom curriculum and is entirely skills- based.
The launch for this campaign was graced by two eminent names in the local football scene – former Malaysian league star turned ESPN & Astro SuperSport football pundit, Abbas Saad and Malaysia’s very own national goalkeeper, Farizal Marlias who gave their support to the event. Also present was popular radio deejay Phat Fabes event emcee who entertained the students and guests with financial quizzes and football games.
