Argos Re-Brand
Starting today Argos is re-branding for the first time since 1999 and the days of ‘Brighter Shopping’
This launch comes after over 2 years of comprehensive customer research and aims to give the Argos brand an even wider appeal.
In order to implement this significant change Argos really need your help. We need to get all Argos creatives and logos that have been hard-coded into your site changed as early as possible.
All banners and buttons taken from the Commission Junction website will be automatically updated.
If you have any specific creative requirements, please contact us ASAP and we will do our best to support your requirements.
