Are you looking for some ways to drive up fan engagement? Why not try some trivia games? Trivia can be a great way to get fans excited about your app when there may not be many games happening. Learning the ins and outs of trivia can seem like a daunting task, but here are some quick tips to help maximize your trivia experience.


1. Short and Sweet - fans like accessibility and ease. When you keep your trivia games short and sweet, fans are more likely to engage. While you can have up to 10 questions per trivia game, we suggest 5-6 is a nice sweet spot.

2. Leverage a Sponsor - reward fans for playing by leveraging your sponsors. Fans get deals, and sponsors get visibility. It's a win-win!

 

3. Run it as a Series - we've seen great success with trivia series'. Whether it's every monday, or "Trivia Thursday", having consistency can go a long way for driving up fan engagement. 


4. Tie it to an Event/Game - give fans an extra challenge on gameday by tying your trivia games to the event. Ask them questions regarding the matchup, the players, the coaches, etc. 

 

5. Reward Users for Playing - if you take advantage of the FanX Rewards platform, use it! Give fans bonus points for each correct answer. Enter fans into drawings just for completing the quiz. Give fans something to be excited about!

 

BONUS: Give fans trivia topics that are outside the box. Unique trivia experiences are memorable for your fans, and will help bring them back for future trivia games!

 Some fun topics we've seen so far:

  • Can you guess the players shoe size?
  • Can you guess the coach based on these five emojis?
