Esketchers developed an app that brings sports fans together through friendly competition and rewards. It allows users to challenge friends on live games, lock in predictions, and compete on leaderboards without cash betting. Winners earn coins that can be used to enter sweepstakes for authentic sports memorabilia and exclusive collectibles.
Peer-to-Peer Social Sports Competition & Rewards Platform
Peer-to-Peer Social Sports Competition & Rewards Platform
Problem
Traditional sports prediction platforms focused on betting against a house or algorithm, offering little opportunity for direct competition between friends. Users lacked social features, peer-to-peer challenges, leaderboards, and automated systems for tracking results or handling payouts. As a result, they often had to manually settle disputes and manage transfers during live games, leading to frustration, reduced trust, and poor engagement.
Solution
We engineered a highly scalable, live-synchronized social gaming platform that centralizes live sports data feeds, automated peer-to-peer wagering workflows, secure coin transactional architecture, and interactive social features into a unified mobile experience.
