Let's start by understanding what this game is
about. A fantasy sport (aka rotisserie or roto)
is a game that allows fans to play a virtual game
or virtual season of a real sport played by real
people.A fantasy sport app user creates a
virtual roster of real players via an app or a
website. In this roster they pick the players
from different teams (say Liverpool or Chelsea)
to make a virtual team of their dreams. Now
selection of these players depend on the user's
research, analysis, or intuition of how
individuals are going to perform in the season.
This process of player selection is called a
Draft.

  • There are different modes in a Fantasy game app-
  • Daily weekly
  • Scoring-based
  • Draft-based
  • League-based
  • Conduct a user research to know what your
    audience wants and then plan the functionalities
    and types of games you'd like to get developed.
    It's imperative to have clarity as it reflects in
    your budget.

The real-game performance statistics of the
chosen players are converted into fantasy points.
These points are then used to examine the
standings of the participating fantasy teams on
the leaderboard. This work is performed by a Team
Manager that is assigned to every team.There is
also a League Commissioner who monitors the
overall league by tracking, compiling, and
calculating actual results of the professional
sport.The performances of the fantasy teams can
be easily tracked via different websites and
mobile applications.

Things That Will Make You Standout In The Fantasy
Sports World

Because of love for the game and thrill of the
competition and participation, Fantasy Sports has
become part of a larger demographic.Sports
enthusiasts love the accessibility of intuitive
apps and websites in the palm of their hands.
Besides, Fantasy sport also provides the
challenge to test one's knowledge and skills in
sports.

  • Apart from the general gameplay features like
  • Lobby
  • Drafting
  • Live scoring
  • Leaderboard
  • Player cards
  • There are certain functionalities and features a
    fantasy sports platform should have in order to
    successfully carve its niche among the sports
    lovers.

8
Timeline
  • The app or website should be supportive of both
    real and virtual games.
  • Users must be able to see the current performance
    without browsing and switching between apps or
    tabs.
  • There should be different options that make the
    app more user-friendly.
  • To be able to review your virtual teams
    performance and going through the live feeds of
    the real match can prove out to be a great
    feature.

Private Group Games
  • Playing with strangers is fun. But have you
    thought of inviting your friends to compete
    against you and defeat them every time? Sounds
    exciting! Doesnt it?Participants should be
    able choose their competitors by inviting
    friends, family or colleagues.Side Note This
    can also lead to increase in potential and
    organic participants without any extra efforts.

10
Virtual Currency
  • The flexibility to use virtual currency instead
    of real one to buy players is a step in the right
    and user-friendly direction. Users will have
    currency back-up from previous winning prizes and
    there can be separate parts for viewing earnings.

11
Manage Contests
  • For this functionality your app needs dedicated
    sections or segregation for different players,
    say beginners, intermediate and experts. This
    ensures fair play as the competition is taking
    place among users of a similar skill set.With
    this feature the user would also be able to
    manage categories, add, remove, or deactivate a
    contest, if required.

12
Manage User Accounts
  • According to the best practices there should be
    an easy way in and out of your app/website. Users
    should be able to edit, delete or deactivate
    accounts without any hassles.

13
Trophies/Achievement Badges
  • A reward is most likely to help boost the morale
    of the users and make them more excited to play
    again and again to earn more rewards.It will
    also help attract new users when the players
    share their achievements on social media.Side
    note Provide a direct social share button for
    achievements to encourage sharing and engagement.

A Booming Fantasy Sports Market
15
According to a research the fantasy sports market
size is expected to grow by 9.34 billion during
2020-2024.The Fantasy sports industry is
growing rapidly because of the advent of smart
devices and lightening internet connectivity
across the globe. In a time when everyone is
locked up and bored at home, we all need
something to kill time with. Might as well be in
something that we love. Now is the best time to
get your app built from a fantasy sport app
development company.
16
How To Monetize Your Fantasy Sport App?
There are two common ways to get the additional
monetary benefit from your app. You can either go
for advertising on app or via participation fee.
17
Advertising
Participation Fee
Participation fee is very effective with
returning users. You can conduct contests with
entry fee and rewards for the winners. You can
see this type of models in MMORPG computer games
like what Valve does with DOTA 2 Compendium.
  • You can partner with relevant brands and plug
    products in between plays for brand exposure. You
    can also have a dedicated section assigned to the
    brands to advertise on your app or website via
    banners.

18
