Have you ever imagined having a fully decorated home complete with smart technology and a whole host of stylish fittings and appliances, absolutely free?
Tropicana's latest campaign could be your moment to achieve this dream!

Running from now until 31 December, the UPgrade campaign is free to join even if you're not a Tropicana homeowner.
The campaign lets you design a virtual living space from scratch, with almost limitless possibilities.
And if your design is spectacular enough, you could walk away with up to RM140,000 in lifestyle upgrades!
Yep, these include smart gadgets, furniture, and appliances for your home, as well as attractive financing options and deals if you want to purchase a new property.
To start, you'll need to take a short personality quiz on Tropicana's website

You can begin by signing up at this website and answering a few simple questions.
From there, you'll be given free coins and basic items to begin decorating your dream space. The theme and layout are completely up to you, so whether you prefer minimalist or bohemian, the choice is completely yours depending on your style and appetite for adventure!
Once you're happy with your design, you can submit it and automatically be in the running for some juicy prizes:
One grand prize winner will receive RM80,000 in home upgrades, with the opportunity to pick freely from a selection of smart home tech, stylish furniture, or helpful appliances.
Two other winners will win RM30,000 worth of upgrades each.
You can also redeem for designer furniture that you can use to decorate your space.
And there will even be limited-edition furnishing available on festive occasions, so keep an eye out!
To level up your design, you'll need points to spend on decorations for your virtual living space. But don't worry, earning them is all part of the fun!
You can collect more by logging in daily, referring friends, and playing mini-games on the website.
And if you want a really big points boost, just drop by a Tropicana showroom, which will not only reward you with a whopping 1,000 points, but give you even more inspiration and ideas for what the perfect living space could look like.
In the end, having more points will let you unlock more premium items, which will lead to an even more dazzling virtual home.
