SoFi Advert Super Bowl 50

Its not just the players getting pre-game nerves. Financial services company, SoFi, has made a last-minute edit to its Super Bowl 50 ad, after facing internal and external criticism for the final line in the spot, Adweek reports.

Both the original and the re-edit of SoFi’s advert depict strangers on a busy street, giving a verdict on whether they are “great” or “not great.”

The original ends: “Find out if you’re great at SoFi.com. You’re probably not.”

The final edit loses the final three words.

A SoFi spokesperson told Adweek the insulting sign-off line “wasn’t authentic to our brand.”
