During the match

Live predictions update with every ball or over. Polls run during drinks breaks and innings transitions. Real-time leaderboards refresh as the match unfolds. Contest scoring is idempotent so feed retries and decision corrections do not corrupt the prize allocation.

The approach

What you can build

Each capability works standalone or combines with others for compound impact.

01·Capability

Cricket predictions branded to your campaign.

Run predict-and-win campaigns where users pick the match winner, the over total, the powerplay score, or the captain. Each prediction is opt-in, branded with your campaign creative, and produces a first-party participant record your CRM team can re-target later. The same mechanic works for FMCG promo, e-commerce app engagement, fintech onboarding hooks, and brand activation.

Branded campaign microsite
Hosted predict-and-win flow with your logo, your colors, your reward. Live in hours, not weeks.
First-party cohort delivery
Every prediction creates a participant record. CRM-ready export via webhooks or API, no third-party cookies needed.
Works across brand verticals
Same engine powers FMCG promos, e-commerce activations, fintech onboarding hooks, and D2C launches.
First-party participant cohort tied to your brand, not just impression counts

02·Capability

Live polls and quizzes during the broadcast window.

Use the slow moments (drinks breaks, innings change, ad slots) for brand-branded polls (who will win the match, who will hit the most sixes) and quick trivia (player stats, brand-relevant cricket facts). Attention is already on the match. Your brand turns passive viewing into a participation moment.

Slow-moment polls
Drinks breaks, innings change, mid-over ad slots. Two-tap participation, instant result reveal.
Brand-relevant trivia
Player stats, milestone questions, cricket facts tied to your brand. Configurable scoring and time limits.
Inline result feedback
Live tally updates as votes come in. Participants see their pick alongside the crowd's answer.

Captain picks and lineup polls without fantasy gaming exposure.

Let your campaign audience pick the captain, the man of the match, or the playing XI before each match. Score the picks against the actual result. No entry fees, no prize money tied to draft outcomes. The mechanic taps into the same emotion as fantasy gaming but stays on the brand marketing side of the line, so your legal team stays comfortable.

No entry fees, no draft money
Picks are free, prizes are brand-funded rewards. Stays cleanly inside brand marketing, away from fantasy gaming rules.
Pre-match engagement window
24-hour pre-match window with push reminders. Closes 5 minutes before toss, scores against the official result.

Season-long brand programs with reliable prize payouts.

Run a season-long brand campaign with weekly leaderboards, tier progression, and a season-end prize pool. The contest engine handles fraud detection (velocity checks, rank-jump auto-disqualify), prize budget caps that auto-stop payout when liability is hit, and idempotent scoring so duplicate facts never double-pay. A real prize campaign your CFO and legal team trust.

When to use cricket and ipl engagement campaigns

Great fit when

FMCG, beverage, and QSR brands running IPL or cricket calendar campaigns

-
Your audience is non-cricket and you do not plan to run any cricket-themed campaigns
-
You operate in a market with regulatory restrictions on prize-bearing contests

Deep Dive

Cricket is a marketing channel, not just a sport

3x to 5xHigher participant retention versus match-day-only campaigns
1
The Problem

For brand marketers in India, cricket is the most consequential cultural event of the year.

IPL alone reaches hundreds of millions of viewers across linear TV, streaming, and second screens. Sponsor budgets for IPL exceed those for most other media moments combined. And yet, most of that spend goes into impressions and pre-roll inventory that produce no first-party data the brand team can act on after the season ends.

2
The System

Cricket engagement campaigns close that gap.

A predict-and-win campaign branded with your creative produces a clean cohort of opted-in users. A cricket-themed in-app quiz produces a participant record tied to your CRM. A captain-pick contest produces a season-long engaged audience the brand team can re-target after the final.

3
The Result

The mechanic taps into the same fan emotion as fantasy gaming, the I-know-cricket-better-than-you instinct, but stays on the brand marketing side of the line.

No entry fees, no prize money tied to draft outcomes, no regulatory gaming exposure. Your legal team is comfortable. Your CFO trusts the prize pool because the contest engine has anti-fraud and budget caps. Your CRM team ends the season with first-party data instead of an impression report.

4
Insight 4

Sports teams, broadcasters, and leagues run the same playbook in a different shape, owned by the team rather than a sponsor brand.

The product is the same. The primary audience for this use case is the brand marketer.
