Scout has launched FanteamGG with Razer Inc. The newly developed app allows more than 150M Razer gamers worldwide to experience Scout products without the involvement of real money.
The collaboration project with Razer Inc., the world’s leading lifestyle brand for gamers and innovator in the field of esports, involves a newly created mobile app: FanteamGG. The standalone app will integrate with Razer’s loyalty reward system “Razer Silver” and allow gamers to experience paid-to-play Daily Fantasy esports.
FanteamGG will be the biggest Daily Fantasy site for esports globally, reaching 100+ countries and rewarding gamers for playing and watching the game through the Razer Silver ecosystem. Tournament winnings from Razer Silver contests are directly credited to the Razer loyalty rewards program.
Razer operates the world’s largest gamer focused ecosystem of hardware, software and related services and more than 150 million gamers will be able to enjoy Scout’s products simply by connecting their RazerID through the FanteamGG app.
Joakim Renman, Vice President of Sales at Scout Gaming, said: “We are extremely proud to have partnered with Razer Inc, and hereby connect what is likely the world’s single largest esport community to what we feel is the world’s best fantasy product.
“The FanteamGG app has been designed to deliver a fun and thrilling player experience, adding a new level of engagement to Esports, easily accessible for anyone that ever purchased or used any of Razer’s widely distributed products and services. “
