Win matchday.
Keep fans all season.

Fans show up for the match and disappear until the next one. Sfere turns every match into a moment fans play along with, turns that attention into a season-long habit, and turns the whole thing into inventory a sponsor can measure — all on a first-party fan graph the club owns.

  • Live today — fan identity, first-party data, loyalty & offers
  • Design Preview — the in-play widget layer

One fan · One profile

What one fan’s matchday looks like on Sfere

Illustrative. Today these five moments are five disconnected logs in five systems. On Sfere they are one profile, from the turnstile to Tuesday.

  1. Live

    Gate

    Scans in at kickoff

    Recognized as the same fan across ticket, app, and stream.

  2. Preview

    Kickoff

    Plays along with the match in real time, not just watches it.

  3. Preview

    Half-time

    Every interaction earns a payoff, feeding streaks and tiers automatically.

  4. Preview

    Full-time

    One match turns into a reason to come back next week.

  5. Live

    Tuesday

    Gets a sponsor offer on WhatsApp

    Reachable, consented, and measurable, on a fan graph you own.

One fan, one profile, every moment tied together and provable to a sponsor. The interactive moments are the Design Preview engagement layer; the identity and profile beneath them are live today, kept in-Kingdom and governed under PDPL.

From the opening whistle to the final standings

Matchday participation that compounds into loyalty

The same engagement layer powers in-play play during the match and season-long loyalty between them, branded and sponsor-ready throughout. Live engagement is a design Preview; the identity and data layer is live.

Light up every matchday Preview

Fire in-play polls, predictions, and trivia the instant a moment happens, turning passive watchers into active participants. The live engagement layer is a design Preview; the fan identity and data beneath it are live today.

Reward the whole season

Season-long leaderboards rank fans by what they earn across linked programs, and status tiers recognize your most committed supporters with thresholds and benefits they can see themselves climbing toward.

Build a habit between matches

Daily check-in streaks give fans a reason to open the app when there’s no match on. Milestones, freezes, and timezone-aware windows keep a run alive across a long fixture list and an off-season.

Never spoil the result

Spoiler safe delivery holds widgets and reactions to each viewer’s playback position, so a fan on a delay isn’t spoiled by fans watching the live edge.

Turn moments into sponsor inventory

Attach a sponsor’s name, image, and brand color to programs and quests, so live engagement becomes addressable, on-brand inventory a partner can measure.

Own the fan, not just the seat

Every poll answer, streak, and reward accrues to one persistent, first-party fan profile you own and govern in-Kingdom, so matchday attention becomes a season-long relationship you keep.

Why it works for sport

Attention on matchday is easy; keeping it all season is the hard part

A great in-play moment earns the attention. What you do with it decides whether a fan comes back on a Tuesday with no match on. Sfere carries matchday participation into streaks, leaderboards, and tiers, so a spike of attention turns into a season-long habit rather than a moment that fades by the final whistle.

  • Run in-play participation during the match, then keep fans returning between games and through the off-season.

  • Leaderboards and status tiers turn one-off viewers into recognized, season-long supporters.

  • Spoiler safe delivery means live and delayed fans share the same experience.

  • Every interaction accrues to one first-party fan profile you own, not a rented audience.

Sponsorship

Give sponsors moments they can measure, not just a logo placement

A perimeter board proves nothing. When a sponsor’s identity is attached to the programs and quests fans actually play, engagement becomes addressable inventory, and because it runs on a fan graph the club owns and governs, exposure can be tied to the actions that followed.

  • Attach a sponsor’s identity to programs, quests, and rewards, turning attention into branded inventory.

  • Measure sponsored exposure against the fan actions that followed, not against impressions.

  • Reskin every widget to the club or the sponsor, so each activation is on-brand and consistent (Preview).

  • Renew sponsorships on evidence, in-Kingdom and consented.

Presented by Your partner’s brand

Measured, not implied

Sponsored exposure is tied to the fan actions that followed it — addressable, on-brand inventory a partner can renew on evidence, rather than a logo in the corner of a graphic.
