FanFest

So many Leaders in Sport discussions about taking fan membership / loyalty global right as we launch FanFest Communities with our 1st cohort of team and league partners…love when the timing hits. If monetizing global fan communities is top of mind, let’s chat in London this week!

Here’s to the heroes of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic games. We’re proud to have worked with World's Greatest and their sponsor VIZIO, to give athletes a voice and showcase their unique and powerful stories through daily shows on our platform. Get in touch to find out how FanFest gives athletes a platform to host and engage their own communities.

Preseason plans in Europe intensify as top football clubs begin international tours and engage global fanbases. Several leverage fan engagement in the US, but how will they maintain fandom year-round? How will they nurture a meaningful connection with these overseas fans that can be leveraged commercially? FanFest empowers football (soccer) teams to build and reward regional fan communities by combining loyalty programs with localized content and gamification features. Last season, we helped leading football rights holders engage international audiences across 72 countries, with 52% of the engagement focused on the US. For example: The Premier League created a Festive Fixtures series incorporating match day polls and contests to engage and generate insights from US-based supporter clubs and super fans. Thanks Alexandra, Harry, and Comcast SportsTech! Manchester City Football Club created more localized experiences for their US fans, leveraging on-air talent and live chat- and host-moderated questions to drive engagement. Thanks Arielle and Paul! Paris Saint-Germain enhanced their global loyalty program by delivering a Fan Club members-only series to North America. Thanks Arnaud and Raphael! We’re proud to have helped rights holders like these - and others such as San Francisco 49ers (thanks Nicholas and Amber!) - connect with their international fans.

This morning, any Tottenham fan in the world could have connected with Ange, just by owning one token and accessing a link. Fan Tokens are not supposed to live on Socios.com only, but to create new digital touch points for Clubs, enabling transactional engagement and monetization. Digital wallets provide interoperability for Fan Tokens by allowing their utility to be made available in new environments (e.g. How you log in with your Google account to certain platforms). For sport organizations, this is not only a new commercial asset, but a leverage to profile audiences in a better way. Imagine a world where fans overseas receive a digital collectible for any interaction... Thanks to our partner Tottenham Hotspur Football Club and all the people involved for making this happen!
