Bingle Car Insurance, part of the Suncorp Group, has launched a new national campaign, No Fluffy Bits, promoting its no-nonsense, budget-friendly approach to car insurance.
Targeted at value-conscious drivers, the campaign, developed Leo Australia, positions Bingle as the smart choice for Australians looking for essential coverage without unnecessary extras.
At the heart of the campaign is ‘Fluffy’—a literal embodiment of all the frills consumers don’t need. In each ad, Fluffy meets an unfortunate end in scenes that highlight the insurer’s stripped-back, straight-talking offer.
Bingle Brand and Marketing Manager Naomi Sleeman said that with living costs climbing, drivers are prioritising affordability without compromising on quality.
“Bingle offers a no-nonsense approach, eliminating unnecessary extras to keep premiums low and affordable.”
“We’ve loved bringing the down-to-earth, cheeky challenger voice of Bingle to life by showing how we do away with the fluffy stuff many of our competitors promote. We know our target market is extremely savvy and don’t want to pay for stuff they don’t need, so we think they’ll enjoy seeing Fluffy ‘dispatched’ in these ads,” Sleeman added.
Aussie comedian Sam Campbell lends his voice to the films and accompanying Spotify ads, where he extends the idea that “fluffy bits” aren’t just in insurance—they’re everywhere.
Tim Woolford, Executive Creative Director, Leo Australia, said: “What a joy it’s been to bring our beloved Fluffy to life and then, of course, mercilessly send him to his doom in the name of lower premiums.
“Less joyful is the lingering fear I now have of revolving doors, hammocks, and bar stools. It’s been a genuinely great time working with so many people to get this out there. Please pour one out for Fluffy.”
The campaign rolls out across TV, digital and audio, reinforcing Bingle’s promise to keep car insurance simple, affordable and fluff-free.
