Fans United Integration Process

In this article, we will go over all the required steps from start to finish in order to have the Fans United integration enabled for your project.

The Fans United integration adds fan engagement, gamification, and prediction games to your Sportal365 platform. To enable it, contact Fans United for credentials, pass them to Sportal365 support, and complete front-end development – a process that typically takes about two weeks after your contract is signed.

Fans United is a fan engagement and gamification platform that turns your website or app into an interactive hub for sports fans. Key benefits include:

  1. Interactive gamification: widgets let users predict match outcomes, play games, and earn points, which boosts overall engagement.

  2. Fan engagement: covers everything from user registration to active participation, helping build a community around your sports content.

  3. Prediction games: multiple formats are available, including an equivalent to the popular Super 6.

  4. First-party data: as users engage with prediction games and other elements, you collect data you can use for targeted advertising and personalized communication.

  5. Monetization: an active, engaged user base opens up opportunities such as premium game features, sponsored content, and targeted advertising.

Pricing

Pricing varies depending on factors such as the number of requests per month, so we can't offer a one-size-fits-all structure. Contact Fans United directly for pricing details – they'll work with you to tailor a plan to your requirements.

Integration Steps:

  1. Initiate contact with Fans United: reach out to establish the necessary credentials and agreements, including:

    • api_key
    • environment
    • id_schema
    • client_id
    • language
  2. Provide Fans United credentials to Sportal365: once you have the credentials, send them to Sportal365 support at support@sportal365.com, along with any other information needed for the integration.

  3. Feature activation for testing: after contractual confirmation, our team activates the Fans United feature on your sandbox project for testing.

  4. Front-end development: in parallel, build and customize the Fans United widgets to match your project's design requirements.

  5. Final activation and deployment: once testing and front-end development are complete, our team activates Fans United for your live project.

If you run into problems during integration – particularly anything related to Fans United credentials or functionality – contact the Fans United support team directly, since they manage the core integration on their end. Our support team is also happy to help wherever they can.

From Sportal365's side, this feature can be enabled within an hour of the contract with Fans United being signed.

However, you'll also need to build and develop the front end for this feature – how long that takes depends on your front-end team's availability and the scope of customization required.
