Fan Connect —Know your fans.Wherever they are.

Connected merchandise for sports, music & esports.

Fan Connect turns every jersey, ticket, scarf and vinyl into a tap-point — so you know who your fans are, where they actually live, and can prove what a sponsor's logo is worth.

What Fan Connect Does

Identify. Locate. Activate.

Three jobs, one loop. Know who your fans are, see where they are in the world, and turn every product and sponsor logo into the connection that pays for it.

  1. 01 / 03

    Identify

    Known Fan

    Turn anonymous buyers into known fans. Every tap on a jersey, ticket, scarf, vinyl or pin builds a first-party profile you actually own — no app required.

    Authenticate

    Cryptographic NFC proves the product is real.

    Reward

    Recognise the fan who paid for the real thing.

    Authenticate + Reward — the dual action that separates real fans from the people who knowingly buy fakes.

  2. 02 / 03

    Locate

    Real Reach

    See where fans actually are in the world — not where you sold to, but where they live, watch, and wear it. A jersey tapped in a Lagos bar, a scarf in a Tokyo bedroom, a vinyl in Berlin.

    Geo-truth

    Every tap is a real-world location, not a billing address.

    Density maps

    See where your fanbase is concentrated, city by city.

    Geo-truth + Density maps — every tap becomes a real location you can see and quantify.

  3. 03 / 03

    Activate

    Sponsor Value

    Give sponsors what they're paying for: a direct, measurable line to opted-in fans through every sponsored shirt, hat, pin, and logo. Sponsorship becomes commercial, not decorative.

    Sponsor-direct

    Sponsors message the fans wearing their logo — provably.

    Measurable

    Engagement per logo, per fan, per moment. Not impressions.

    Sponsor-direct + Measurable — logos stop being decoration and start being a commercial channel.

For Sponsors

Proof per logo,not per impression.

A sponsor's logo on a shirt is worth whatever the last valuation deck said. Tag the shirt and it becomes measurable: how many people tapped it, where they were, what they opened, and how many took the sponsor's offer. That is the number that renews a deal — and raises it.

About Fan Connect

Fan Connect is the connected-fan platform for sport, music and esports.

Fan Connect turns physical merchandise, tickets and stadium touchpoints into NFC and QR-activated experiences. A jersey, scarf, vinyl, pin badge or seat becomes a tap-point that identifies the fan, locates them in the world, and opens a direct line for clubs, labels and sponsors.

Built for sport, music and esports, Fan Connect is used by federations, clubs, labels and brand partners worldwide to own first-party fan data and prove sponsor value from impression to redemption.
