Whoever thought that the former players Edmundo and Souza had left the competitions was mistaken. The professionals returned to the field in an unusual competition: the Wanna Cup. Created by the social sports betting app Wanna, it is the first dispute in the history of the market to put users face to face to test their knowledge of the sport.
In its second edition, the definition of the competition brought victory to Mikael Gomes, @Gomex, who took the best of three in the results of matches in the Premier League and Bundesliga. “Participating in the Wanna Cup was very rewarding. To be champion with strong opponents was even better. I found the initiative incredible. I used to bet before, but Wanna stood out for the ease of placing bets and for promoting greater interaction between users,” says @Gomex.
In this edition, Souza and Edmundo led teams of 8 competitors, formed by digital influencers, users of Wanna. The teams also had professional bettors Fábio Bampi, Nettuno, and Danilo Martins as strategists. The competitors themselves decided the games of different sports and leagues on the day of the dispute, which followed the best of three format. The competitor with the most victories followed in the competition.
The result was a unique experience in a virtual environment, showing how it is possible to use sports betting as healthy entertainment. “Wanna is the sports bettors' social network. We are the only platform on the market capable of putting real users face to face to test their knowledge of the sport with a bet. That is why a competition like Copa Wanna is exclusive to our app,” says Nicole Brandão, Head of Marketing at Wanna.
In addition to enabling people to challenge themselves, at Wanna the power to create bets is in the hands of the users themselves. “This is another Wanna exclusivity in the market. Other platforms concentrate the power to create bets in your hands, which does not make sense to us. Sport is passion, it is competition, it is fun, and it must include fans in every way,” adds Nicole.
Wanna is a social sports betting platform that promotes the community and gives the player the power to test their sports knowledge in a competitive environment, while having fun and having a safe experience. With the proposal of being the sports betting social network, it provides a space for sports fans to interact with each other, be entertained and resolve their differences with a friendly bet. “We want to connect real people and share experiences, eliminating the stigma around the sports betting industry,” states the company.
