🎄 The MERKUR Christmas Madness enters the next round!

December is about to get exciting: Between 1 and 24 December, we will hide letters in our sections a total of four times – sometimes in new, sometimes in existing articles. Your job? Keep your eyes open, collect the letters, and crack the solution word of the current round!

❄ Here’s how it works

  • 4 prize draws: Between 1 and 24 December, four full prize draws take place across four different sections, each requiring you to put together one solution word.
  • Every 3 days: Each prize draw consists of two parts (starting at 11am each) in which you look for 3 new hidden letters in the selected section across news and articles on MERKUR.COM.
  • Weekly: All collected letters form the solution word consisting of 6 letters.
  • Take part: Follow us on Instagram and send us the solution word via Direct Message to @merkur_com – and you’ll be entered into the draw!

👇 An example

You browse through our articles and news to find the hidden letters for the solution word M – E – R – K – U – R. We hide the first three letters, M – E – R, on day 1 and the remaining three letters, K – U – R, on day 4 of the prize draw.

Once you’ve gathered all the letters, simply put them in the right order – and voilà, the solution word is MERKUR. Now it’s your turn: Send us the solution word via Direct Message on Instagram to @merkur_com. This automatically enters you into the draw and gives you the chance to win the weekly prize.

Super easy: find letters → form a word → send a message → with a bit of luck, win.
