It is the social platform with the most active users in Taiwan, reaching 21 million real people, with small gaps in usage across age groups and a balanced gender ratio. LINE users make up 93% of Taiwan's population aged 12 to 65, giving LINE one of the highest penetration rates and making it one of the most influential social and messaging platforms.
(2) High interactivity
Instant messagingfeatures increase user interaction, and withauto-reply bots, brands can reply to customers right away and guide users to the information they are looking for. Highly engaged users open LINE frequently every day and habitually tap on messages that interest them.(3) Personalized messages
LINE Official Accounts let brands collect user preferences and needs and deliver personalized marketing content based on different tags, such as interest categories, membership tiers and personalized push messages. This makes users feel the information is relevant, raising open rates and willingness to interact, and avoiding blocks caused by too many irrelevant messages.
(4) Versatile integrations
LINE Official Accounts offer businesses a wide range of API services. Through LINE's APIs, businesses can connect their existing applications (such as their own customer service system, e-commerce system, service website or app data) and integrate various systems with their LINE Official Account. This architecture enables more diverse customer service applications.

LINE interactive games: master the three cores of interaction to win brand affinity and say goodbye to blocks
Successful LINE interactive marketing should have these three core elements:
-
Useful: offer value or incentives, such as coupons, points or prize draws.
-
Interesting: use personalized marketing to recommend suitable content based on user preferences.
-
Fun: use gamification marketing to increase participation and brand engagement.
Major brands are now using interactive games on LINE everywhere to attract consumers. Let's look at how these real cases put them to work!
Example: beauty brand shu uemura
LINE red envelope draw mini game
LINE push notifications invite users to join a prize draw, showing the prizes up front so users can win with a quick tap. The interactive game makes the brand more engaging and fun while giving away small gifts, and drives traffic to stores for in-person pickup, turning an online campaign into offline purchases. If consumers win a big prize and share it on social media, the campaign also gains MGM marketing effects. This is definitely a major trend right now.
When consumers get enough incentive, fun and exclusive perks, it creates a good user experience. It not only makes them more receptive to push messages but can also leave a positive impression of the brand!

Example: Wanke Hot Pot, a well-known hot pot restaurant in Taichung
LINE scratch card mini game
: What should we eat today?
: I won a coupon, so let's go to Wanke Hot Pot!
: Add them as a friend and enter the draw too! We can redeem them together later.
A simple scratch card mini game is not only fun enough to attract consumers but also deepens brand recognition through interaction. Through game mechanics, consumers enjoy a small win while building affinity for and memory of the brand.
In addition, with an MGM (Member Get Member) referral mechanism, consumers are more likely to share the game with friends and family, further spreading the brand's influence.
Once consumers add the brand's LINE Official Account, the business can use follow-up campaigns, such as promotional pushes, limited-time event notices and exclusive member benefits, to raise repurchase rates and loyalty and further improve remarketing results.
