Sal's NBL 2024

July 31, 2024

We worked with the New Zealand NBL, Sky Sport NZ and Sal's Pizza to create a game for fans and a way for brands to be part of the game. Fans could make predictions on the Mixnpik on every game in the Sal's NBL. We also have live voting through our Fan MVP feature.

The games are very easy to play. If fans are not familiar with the teams, we provide useful stats, insight and opinion. We make it hard for skilled players to win every week. We want luck to play a big part in the game.

Fans enter the game and retain an interest in the event. They are more likely to tune in and watch. They are more aware of players and stats that matter. They start to take a more long term interest in favourite players or teams.

We've now fully engaged in all NBL games because of Mixnpik. We are sometimes screaming at the TV should we be competing in the last seconds. We have watched nearly all NBL games this season! - Kev from Auckland

We're excited to quietly announce that our flagship product, Mixnpik is in test in New Zealand. We will be running games with kiwi sports fans and adding further improvements to the fan experience over the next few weeks.

WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?

Mixnpik reconnects friends and family around sport. It's a little bit different to your usual fantasy and sports games in that it is a mainstream game for all fans, not just the geeks! It is driven by the stories and talking points that real fans are actually talking about and is made by some amazing creators with a sprinkling of AI.

We are still in development so look out for major releases and improvements over the weeks ahead.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The game has a few component parts:

  • We take the best talking points about your team or sport and gamify them with a real challenge.

  • These challenges might be a prediction, a poll or a trivia question.

  • You earn points if you're right - most of our questions are resulted live during the sports event.

  • There are leaderboards, achievements, prize games, fun games, series leaderboards, fan of the month, season rankings etc

  • You can follow other players, tap to compare your answers and much more.

Is it a news app? A game? A social app? No idea, but if you have an idea get in touch. We'd love to hear from you.
