Ikea has launched a campaign that allows customers to buy with their time.

As Ikea’s stores are often located far from city centres, people spend a lot of time getting there. A new initiative from Ikea allows you 'Buy With Your Time' - with the time you've spent going to their stores.

To find out how much time customers spent Ogilvy and Ikea used the Google Maps Timeline, a feature inside Google Maps that tracks and records all the routes you take every day. So consumers only had to find the last time they visited Ikea and how long it took them.

The price of an hour was based on the average wage in Dubai. Where one hour is AED 105. And they added all the prices in time to all Ikea products.
