Monobank crash due to the great popularity of the lemon search promotion
On Thursday, October 16, the mobile application Monobank experienced a crash due to the high popularity of the lemon search promotion. This caused an overload, making it temporarily impossible for users to log into the app. This was reported by one of the bank's founders, Oleg Gorokhovsky, on social networks, noting that some functions were temporarily disabled due to the large number of visitors.
Listen, you can search for lemons a little slower. Part of the service is already not working because of you. You have visited places where no one had been before
The promotion for finding virtual lemons in the app gained immense popularity - in the first ten minutes, ten thousand users collected the required number of lemons, which caused serious issues with server maintenance. Players who manage to find 50 lemons will have a chance to win one million hryvnias. In addition, other prizes such as an iPhone, a trip to Disneyland, and a BMW car are also provided. The promotional campaign will last four days, with winners being announced gradually over several days.
During the promotion, Monobank faced crashes due to high user interest in searching for lemons in the app, leading to temporary unavailability of some functions. Participants in the promotion have the chance to win valuable prizes, including cash winnings and other interesting rewards.
