Fantasy sports is a growing business arena with a multitude of apps already been garnering a huge fan following and revenue. A fantasy sports app offers players to design a team of their choice from real-time listed players and participate in live contests and win money. Fantasy sports apps like Dream 11 have created a collective space for sports lovers of different genres to create a team of their choice and contest against players all around the world. For sports enthusiasts, if you are looking for fantasy sports app development, it is important to understand the trends and patterns of a fantasy sports app, for successfully developing an engaging fantasy sports app.

While developing a fantasy sports app, it is important to have a website and dedicated app. Most of the successful fantasy apps began with a website and later building an app that successfully reroutes a significant portion of its user base coming to the website. The app development demands looking into some of the essential features for a fantasy sports app;

Quick Log-In/ Sign up

For people looking for entertainment, they won’t like to be bragged about filling in too many details. Collect only essential information such as mobile number, email address, or the user’s name, so that the registration process would be a simple step.

The Main Interface

It is important to provide a designated space for competitions, tournaments or leagues.,game fixtures, the price of participating in them, contest rules, number of players that can participate in a contest etc. The app should have a seamless flow while browsing.

Unique User dashboard 

A unique user dashboard that offers the users an area listing their winning statistics, reward points won, bonuses collected, money transaction history, and much more with easy-to-follow infographics.

Admin dashboard
 

The admin dashboard offers you (admin) control over the app’s functioning, permission settings, accessing user data, and setting regulations that can affect a player’s game. The admin can edit, deactivate or delete accounts of the players in terms of violations of the rules, so the dashboard will also help for managing user accounts.

Also, admins can manage contests by having control over the contests by listing them under  ‘free to play and ‘pay to play. Apps like Dream 11 offers free contests for frequent users to engage more traffic into their app.

Set the framework  

It is important to understand the audience and market while developing your fantasy sports app and decide on your preference for the app.  Like if you are looking for developing an app for the native market, or an international app for players and users all around the world, or developing a cross-platform that can work seamlessly across all platforms.

And finding a suitable partner for developing your fantasy sports app would help you with solving all your concerns as a fantasy sports app development company can properly analyse the trends and market for you and design a highly intuitive and engaging fantasy sports app for you.
