ePlayment has always stood out in the fintech space—not just as a digital wallet, but as a platform created for gamers, hobbyists, and creators who thrive in niche, passion-driven communities. Over the years, the brand has brought that mission to life through grassroots engagement, pop-culture activations, and creator-led initiatives. But with Pixel Loot Fair, held June 1–2, 2024, at Estancia Mall, ePlayment leveled up from participating in the scene to creating a new stage for it.
The goal was simple yet bold: give the community a space to shine—and do it without charging a single peso. Creators, sellers, and hobbyists were invited to set up shop for free, allowing them to focus on creativity, not overhead costs. The result? A vibrant marketplace of 36 unique booths, showcasing everything from fan art and indie comics to custom keycaps and handmade collectibles.
More than a pop-up, it was a celebration of fandom, artistry, and DIY culture. The event buzzed with a kind of energy that only comes from genuine community participation. This wasn’t a corporate event disguised as culture—it was culture taking center stage, supported by a brand that understood the assignment.
Pixel Loot Fair was designed to be more than just transactional. It was an experience, packed with programming that kept people engaged all weekend long. Highlights included a Mobile Legends tournament, a cosplay showdown, creator panels, and a few surprise segments that turned passersby into active participants.
At the entrance, app users received a Quest Card—a gamified checklist of activities around the venue. Completing tasks (like visiting booths, joining segments, or interacting with featured partners) earned guests a raffle entry for exclusive prizes. The effect? The mall space transformed into an IRL adventure, with guests actively exploring every nook of the event.
The Quest Card mechanic drove natural foot traffic to every booth and turned casual attendees into fully engaged participants—proving that great event strategy is as much about movement as it is about moments.
Of course, no immersive event goes off without its “boss battles.” Despite a thoroughly planned program, real-world variables—like shifting crowd sizes, surprise celebrity arrivals, and on-the-fly tech issues—meant that the original schedule had to be reshuffled live. Segments were moved, cut, or merged in real time.
But thanks to experienced show calling, quick decisions, and solid team communication, what could’ve been chaos became a smooth, adaptive experience. The energy stayed high, and the audience never missed a beat.
Pixel Loot Fair achieved more than just metrics. It built real-world connections. It reminded creators that their work matters, and gave fans a space where their passions were seen and celebrated.
The response was overwhelming—so much so that the next edition was already teased before the weekend wrapped. For ePlayment, the message was clear: when you invest in your community, they invest right back.
This wasn’t just an event. It was proof of concept. And a new tradition in the making.
