Deliveroo cyclists in gold are in Cardiff today and if you see them you get free stuff

You probably see Deliveroo riders around the Welsh capital on a daily basis.

But if you spot some in Cardiff today, you could be in for a treat.

To celebrate Black Friday, food delivery service Deliveroo is giving away thousands of pounds worth of prizes - using riders dressed in gold and Spark AR Technology.

The Deliveroo Golden Riders - kitted out in gold from head to pedal - will cycle through Cardiff on Friday, November 29 .

And if you spot one, you can use your smartphone camera to scan the hotspot on the rider's backpack and watch money-off vouchers will fly onto your device like magic.

All you have to do is hover your smartphone camera over the QR code on the rider's back and Spark AR will open in your Facebook app and do the rest.

If you do spot a Golden Rider, there's a whole range of Deliveroo credit prizes, ranging from £5 to £5,000.

And those who share their augmented reality experience on social media, will automatically be entered into a ballot to win free food for a (very) full month.

And it doesn’t end there, anyone who has the Deliveroo Golden Rider arrive at their house will automatically receive a golden ticket prize; money off their next meal.

Sophie Headlam, head of social at Deliveroo says: “Think Pokémon Go, but instead of Charizard, you get a cheeseburger."
