Nike App on WeChat


Bringing the best of Nike to 1 billion+ Athletes*





Brief

How can we remove friction and create true distinction for the Chinese Athlete*


Strategy & Mission

WeChat, the social & messaging app that serves over 1.2 Billion users, launched it’s ‘Mini-Program' platform in 2017, allowing brands to create on-demand ‘instant’ applications that could be launched within the WeChat App itself (effectively turning it into an OS).

We at Nike China (who had yet to bring the traditional Nike App to market) seized this opportunity to create from scratch a full Commerce, Services & Membership experience designed completely around the Chinese consumer.

Nike China has multiple consumer touch points that play to their unique strengths, but only 1 is capable of a full service offering, the Nike WeChat Mini-Program.

Launching in September 2018, the Nike MP is now on version 3.2 removing friction and creating distinction for millions of Athletes* every month.
