Versus Systems Inc. (“Versus”) (Nasdaq: VS) (CSE:VS)
(FRANKFURT:BMVB) today announced a partnership agreement with Xcite
Interactive (“Xcite”), a world leader in interactive audience
engagement. Audiences will be able to win real-world prizes while
watching sports, playing mobile games, and watching streams on
their TVs and mobile devices.
Xcite’s technology has powered interactive media
experiences for major sports leagues like the NFL, NBA, NHL MLB,
and NCAA, as well as events like the Olympics, the World Cup,
X-Games, Formula1, and corporate events around the world. The
interactive media platform has delivered experiential fan
engagement for over 150 major sports teams and innovative
entertainment partners, broadcasting on television, on OTT
services, on custom websites, or on streaming platforms like
YouTube and Twitch.
Under the partnership agreement, Versus will
provide its patented rewards technology for use in both at-home and
in-venue projects with Xcite, allowing fans to earn real prizes
through Xcite’s platform, which includes gamification through
voting, polling, trivia, predictive gaming, and mini-games that
fans can play alongside the live event experience.
“Being able to earn real-world rewards while
watching your favorite team play is a dream benefit for sports fans
worldwide. Working with Xcite to bring prizes to fans in the
stadium, and at home, is a fantastic application of our reward
platform,” said Matthew Pierce, CEO of Versus Systems. “And it’s
not just audiences that win. Brands will have new ways to reach
audiences, and the events themselves will have more engaged
viewers. It’s a very exciting partnership for everyone
involved.”

partner for Xcite,” said Sean Hopkins, Founder and CEO of Xcite
