What Ensures Fairness Behind Every “Scratch & Win Instantly” Promotional Code?

Around noon, as the heat bears down on the streets of Ho Chi Minh City, it is common to see people stopping at grocery stores, convenience stores and roadside drink stalls for a cold beverage.

Some take a few sips of Dr Thanh Herbal Tea under the shade of a tree, seeking relief from the heat.

Others remain on their motorbikes, taking a short break between deliveries or while waiting for customers, enjoying the bold taste of Number 1 Energy Drink to recharge before getting back to work.

Groups of young people can also be seen gathering at small roadside stalls during lunch breaks, holding chilled Zero Degree Green Tea as they seek to cool down and ease the pressures of work and study.

At first glance, everything seems routine — until consumers notice the promotional message printed directly on the bottle labels.

Some see friends entering codes and decide to try it themselves. Others become curious after spotting the words “Scratch & Win Instantly” on the packaging, prompting them to keep the bottle for a few extra seconds instead of throwing it away.

After drinking Dr. Thanh Tea, Green Tea No. 1, or Number 1 Energy Drink, many people no longer rush to discard the bottle immediately; instead, they hold onto it for a few extra seconds to tear off the label and enter the code for a chance to win prizes.

They simply tear along the pre-cut line on the label to reveal a short code, open their phones and enter it as instructed. Within seconds, the result appears on the screen.

“I entered the code and immediately found out I had won”

Early in the afternoon, Quân, a ride-hailing driver working in the Hiệp Bình area of Ho Chi Minh City, parked his motorbike under a tree near a university while waiting for his next customer.

He was holding an empty Number 1 Energy Drink bottle when another driver, also taking a break, asked whether he had tried the “scratch and enter the code” promotion.

“I thought it was just advertising. I didn’t expect that entering the code would show the result immediately,” Quân said.

After his fellow driver showed him how to participate, Quân tore the label along the pre-cut line and entered the code on his phone. Within seconds, the system notified him that he had won a VND50,000 mobile top-up card.

Participating is simple: just peel off the label, retrieve the prize code, and send it to the 6020 hotline or enter it on the website https://xengaytrunglien.com/ to get instant results.

The excitement is not limited to ride-hailing drivers. On hot summer days, the same scene is becoming increasingly common at roadside drink stalls.

At a small drink stall on Dinh Thi Thi Street in Van Phuc Urban Area, Ho Chi Minh City, Quynh, the owner, said more customers have recently been buying Zero Degree Green Tea, Number 1 Energy Drink and Dr Thanh Herbal Tea before staying at the stall to enter their codes and try their luck.

“At first, I didn’t pay much attention. Then I noticed customers keeping their bottles after drinking. Some entered codes, while others showed off the phone cards they had just won. That’s when I realized there was a scratch-and-win promotion,” she said.

According to Quynh, on some days several customers won mobile top-up cards during a single lunch period, prompting others nearby to try their luck as well.

No app or registration required: Simplicity encourages participation

What makes the promotion easy to remember and participate in is its simplicity. The process is straightforward enough for almost anyone to try on their first attempt.

The entire process takes less than a minute. There is no need to download an app, create an account or go through multiple verification steps.

At many roadside drink stalls, the practice of entering codes to try one's luck while enjoying a beverage is becoming a familiar sight this summer.

For many people — particularly delivery drivers, workers and older consumers who may be less familiar with smartphone applications — this simplicity makes participation more convenient and appealing.

Because the process is so easy, the habit of “scratching the label after drinking” is also spreading quickly through word of mouth.

From roadside drink stalls and grocery stores to lunch-time rest stops, it is increasingly common to see people drinking their beverages while looking at their phones and entering codes to try their luck.

Double the excitement: Instant prizes and a chance to win VND100 million

According to the promotion, more than 500,000 mobile top-up card prizes are being distributed throughout the summer, from April 20 to August 31, 2026.

On average, a winner receives a prize every few minutes somewhere across the country. To date, more than 400,000 prizes have already been claimed, while hundreds of thousands of gifts continue to be awarded nationwide.

As a result, seeing consumers scratch their labels and enter codes immediately after finishing their drinks is no longer unusual at roadside stalls or midday rest stops.

For many outdoor workers, the habit of cooling their bodies with Dr. Thanh Tea during scorching hot days also offers them a chance to win valuable prizes.

Daily prizes are awarded under a “win and receive” mechanism, with the system automatically crediting the prize within 24 hours after the result is confirmed.

In addition, participants currently have a chance to win one Grand Prize worth up to VND100 million in cash, along with 10 First Prizes worth VND10 million each. The lucky draw is scheduled for 10 a.m. on September 4, with the results to be publicly announced on the official fan pages of Dr Thanh Herbal Tea, Zero Degree Green Tea and Number 1 Energy Drink.

From refreshment to a chance to win

The excitement doubles this summer: consumers who choose Dr Thanh Herbal Tea, Zero Degree Green Tea or Number 1 Energy Drink can easily try their luck at more than 500,000 mobile top-up card prizes while also having a chance to win the VND100 million Grand Prize.

During short breaks on hot summer days — whether standing under a tree, sitting outside a shop or taking a few minutes between rides — scratching a bottle label after having a drink is gradually becoming a familiar habit for many consumers.

It takes little time. There are virtually no barriers to participation, and the result can appear almost instantly.

Perhaps that is why many people no longer rush to throw their bottles away after drinking. Instead, they keep them for a few more seconds and scratch the label.

Because there is always a chance that, in that very moment, their phone will light up with a winning notification from Dr Thanh Herbal Tea, Zero Degree Green Tea or Number 1 Energy Drink.
