Digital platform for fantasy sports and microbetting

About betr

Betr.app is a digital platform that combines fantasy sports with microbetting, targeting sports fans who want to engage in betting on their favorite sports like NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL. The platform offers two main features: Betr Picks and Microbetting. Betr Picks allows users to make multiple bets on player statistics, with the potential to win up to 100 times their entry, enhancing the traditional fantasy pick'em experience. Microbetting enables users to place bets on specific moments during live sporting events, catering to those who enjoy fast-paced action and unpredictability. Betr.app generates revenue through entry fees from users participating in these betting games, making it distinct from competitors by focusing on both fantasy elements and real-time betting excitement. The company's goal is to provide an engaging and dynamic platform for sports enthusiasts to test their knowledge and instincts while enjoying the thrill of betting.
