Background
Hotlink is the prepaid carrier of Malaysian telecommunications company Maxis.
1st Tag (2003-2005)
Visuals: On a red background, there is text reading "Hotlink" ("Hot" in blue and "link" in red) over a lime circle and with a red filling inside the "o". The URL and the Maxis logo can be seen at the bottom left and the bottom right of the screen respectively.
Variants:
- On the Hotlink Football commercial, the logo spins and zooms from the screen as a few white streaks fly around it for a brief time. The text "Now available on 017" fades in beneath the logo, along with the URL and Maxis logo at their usual positions. A football flies in and hits and bounces off the "o" of the logo. The logo slowly rotates.
- On a Chinese Activate Your Live commercial from 2005, the text "Aktifkan diri anda" is above the logo.
- Some later commercials from the tag's last few years feature the logo on a white gradient background. They also lack the URL and the Maxis logo.
- On the FIFA 2006 Final Draw and the MAXIS Beautiful Game commercials, the logo slightly zooms in towards the screen.
- On the English and Malay Activate Your Live commercials from 2004 are four people (three men, with the second one wearing a white songkok and the third one having slightly long hair, and a woman between the last two men) pointing at the screen while singing "Aktifkan Dirimu!" in a white gradient environment. The Hotlink logo is behind them, and the URL is in blue.
