# Pinata Smash

> Pinata Smash has visitors smash a pinata to uncover a prize — high-energy fun for every visit. A paid-plan game. Learn what it is, why it converts, and which stores get the most out of it.

**Pinata Smash** is Zestify's smash-the-pinata game: a visitor taps or clicks a colorful pinata to smash it open and uncover their prize. It's a high-energy, celebratory alternative to a prize wheel.

> [!NOTE]
>
> Pinata Smash is available on **paid plans only** (Starter, Growth, Pro, and Plus). It isn't available on the Free plan. See [Plans Overview](https://zestify-docs.geticonicapps.com/pricing/plans-overview.md).

## **What It Is**

The game appears as a widget on your storefront (see [How to Enable the Widget](https://zestify-docs.geticonicapps.com/getting-started/how-to-enable-the-widget.md)). A visitor smashes the pinata until it breaks open and reveals their prize. That prize becomes a discount code they can redeem at checkout — see [Rewards Overview](https://zestify-docs.geticonicapps.com/rewards/rewards-overview.md) for how prizes and odds are set up.

Depending on the **Ask for email** setting on the [General Tab](https://zestify-docs.geticonicapps.com/campaigns/general-tab.md), the visitor enters their email before playing or before the reward is revealed.

## **Why It Converts**

The smashing interaction is physical and satisfying, and the reveal feels like a small celebration rather than a standard discount popup. That excitement makes visitors more likely to finish the game and share their email to claim the prize.

## **Best Industries**

* **Party, gifting & seasonal stores** — the pinata fits celebration-led shopping
* **Youth & trend-led fashion** — a bold, playful mechanic matches a playful brand voice
* **Toys, kids & entertainment** — fun, tap-to-smash gameplay mirrors the products

## **Best Audience**

* Mobile-first visitors — tapping to smash works naturally on touch screens
* Younger or fun-seeking shoppers who respond well to game-like interactions
