First digital sports fan engagement in Latin America

By harnessing the power of Web3 and blockchain-based features, the company develops fan apps for clubs in different sports disciplines to create immersive and interactive experiences for sports enthusiasts worldwide, hence transforming how fans interact with sports teams and federations. Besides engagement, the use of Web3 gives fans the exclusive ability to own, trade, and monetize their digital assets, it enhances transparency and security.

The startup today collaborates with about 20 clients worldwide, including FBIN Business Network, the German professional basketball club Telekom Baskets Bonn, United City FC, the World Kickboxing and Karate Association (WKA), Data Talks from Stockholm, the South African Hockey Association among others.

The Nicaraguan Football Federation (NFF) also looks forward to developing its fan app with Blocksport to bring its engagement with fans to new heights, leveraging technology to foster a stronger community around Nicaraguan football. This collaboration is a notable first in the Latin American and CONCACAF (Confederation of North, Central America and Caribbean Association Football) regions, setting a new benchmark for how sports federations can engage with their fans through technology.

As part of this partnership, NFF and Blocksport are developing a new fan app that includes gamification features that reward fan interaction, making every touchpoint more exciting and engaging. This approach not only enhances the fan experience but also deepens the connection between the NFF and its supporters. Fans can look forward to the launch of the NFF fan app and the availability of fan tokens soon. These platforms will provide fans with new ways to engage, participate, and show their support for Nicaraguan football.
