Recognising True Fans
Being a true fan is a commitment, and sometimes a sacrifice. But the vast majority don't make it to the events - they walk away with nothing but memories of the moments they witnessed on screen.
TRACE recognises true fans, no matter where they are in the world, with free-to-claim digital memorabilia that marks those moments forever.
For Sports IPs and Brand Sponsors who want to engage with fans
Most fans watch sport on a screen, leaving sports IPs and sponsors in the dark about who’s engaging and how to address and monetise them effectively. This costs both parties billions every year.
Trace is a B2B2C platform which helps IPs and sponsors turn unknown fans into an addressable audience. “Traces” are time-limited digital memorabilia which fans claim around sporting events - a ‘virtual ticket stub’ packaged in a storytelling asset which creates connective tissue. Fans get recognition, IPs get first party data and sponsors get targeted exposure to true fans with better ROI.
