Looop's Jumbo Campaign: A Fun Way to Save on Electric Bills

Looop, a company dedicated to creating an energy-free society, is thrilled to announce its upcoming lottery-style campaign, Looop Jumbo, set to kick off on January 29. Headquartered in Taito, Tokyo, Looop aims to find innovative ways to improve energy usage in our daily lives. With the rising costs of living, particularly in electricity rates, consumer awareness regarding energy savings has intensified.

According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, electricity prices have surged by 4.9% compared to last year. A recent study by Looop revealed that over 80% of respondents aged 30 to 60 feel burdened by increased electricity costs. In response to this pressing issue, Looop is launching Looop Jumbo, which promises not only to reduce electricity costs for its customers but also to add a layer of excitement to energy conservation.

Understanding Looop's Philosophy

Looop has always been at the forefront of promoting sustainable energy use. Through their official app, users can check electricity prices for the day and the following day, encouraging them to shift their electricity usage to daytime hours when solar power generation is high and costs lower. This practice, known as peak shifting, aims to benefit both consumers’ wallets and the environment. Looop Jumbo will integrate this environmentally friendly approach with a fun and engaging lottery experience.

Details about the Looop Jumbo Campaign

The Looop Jumbo campaign will run until March 16, 2026, targeting all customers who have contracted with Looop under the Smart Time ONE plan. By logging into the Looop app, users can earn one lottery ticket per day, with the opportunity to collect as many tickets as they wish leading up to the draw. Each ticket holds the promise of discounts on electricity bills, creating a blend of anticipation and engagement for users.

There will be a total of 5,281 prizes, ensuring plenty of winners. Additionally, participants who gather five or more lottery tickets will receive a participation prize. The announcement of winners will occur on March 31, 2026, with discounted electricity bills beginning in July for successful participants.

The prizes for the campaign are as follows:

- 1st Prize: Discount equivalent to six months’ worth of electricity bills (1 winner)
- 2nd Prize: Discount equivalent to one month’s worth of electricity bills (3 winners)
- 3rd Prize: Discount equivalent to one week’s worth of electricity bills (325 winners)
- 4th Prize: Discount equivalent to one day’s worth of electricity bills (3250 winners)
- 5th Prize: Discount equivalent to one hour’s worth of electricity bills (35,000 winners)
- Participation Prize: All who collect five or more tickets are eligible for a 30-minute worth of electricity discount.

The prizes are based on average monthly electricity costs from government statistics, ensuring participants receive fair rewards based on their actual usage.

As Looop approaches its 10th anniversary of service in 2026, the company remains committed to enhancing customer experiences. Future plans involve continuous improvements to service features and exciting promotions designed to enable customers to use their electricity in ways that are both economical and environmentally conscious. Through the Looop Jumbo campaign, participants can enjoy the dual satisfaction of saving money and contributing to a kinder world.
