New “League Play” feature at FanDuel ups the ante for players and affiliates
GTO client FanDuel.com already had a really cool product on it’s hands with a social media friendly, daily fantasy sports game that you could play against a single player, for real money. As of Thursday, it’s now possible for players to compete in a “league” setting – competing with either 4 or 9 additional players for added stakes. Currently “league games” are available in 5 and 10 player options. For example, In a $5- 5 player league the winner of the single day game would win $22.50, while the winner in a $10 – 10 player league would win $90. Not bad for a single day of Fantasy baseball or basketball.
The new “league play” option will drive more player activity and thus more revenue for affiliates.
