Will Ferrell and PayPal Join Forces Again with Humorous Ad Highlighting Payment Flexibility

Will Ferrell Reunites with PayPal in a Fun-filled Ad

Will Ferrell, the beloved comedic actor, has once again teamed up with PayPal to promote its versatile payment options through a new advertisement. This sequel comes on the heels of last year's successful campaign where Ferrell highlighted how PayPal allows you to pay 'everywhere.' The new ad combines Ferrell's unique comedic style with a catchy remixed version of Fleetwood Mac's classic song "Go Your Own Way," encouraging consumers to embrace the various ways they can complete their purchases.

In the new advertisement, Ferrell hilariously navigates through a shopping adventure. He is seen wearing funny attire like hair curlers while mock-checking out from his bathtub. Throughout the ad, he humorously sings about the various payment methods available through PayPal—be it debit cards, credit cards, bank accounts, or even the PayPal Buy Now Pay Later option.

The ad debuted nationally during the basketball playoffs, marking a strategic move by PayPal to reach a broad audience during a high-profile sporting event. Ferrell's charm and wit truly shine as he explores shopping for everything from beauty products to plane tickets and nachos, all while chiming, "You can pay your own way!"

In a light-hearted statement, Ferrell commented, "It all started with a song about paying where you want. And here we are – crooning about paying the way you want! Credit card? Sure! Debit? Go for it. Pay later? Why, of course! Monopoly money? Not quite, but I'm working on it." His playful approach not only connects with audiences but also enhances the brand's image as a flexible payment solution.

The new campaign aims to highlight the various advancements PayPal has made to streamline the checkout process, including biometric logins, quicker page loading times, and new product features like pre-qualified spending amounts for Pay In 4 purchases. Additionally, it spotlights the PayPal Debit Mastercard that allows users tap-to-pay effectively while earning 5% cash back on their selected categories.

Geoff Seeley, PayPal's Chief Marketing Officer, expressed excitement over the partnership saying, "We're thrilled to pick up where we left off with Will, taking customers on another playful journey that shows them the choice and flexibility they have when using PayPal Checkout."

The massive marketing campaign accompanying the ad is set to span across various platforms—out-of-home, digital media, streaming services, and social networks. By doing so, PayPal aims to engage consumers, prompting them to reconsider their payment options and incentivizing them towards using PayPal for their purchases.
