First social network for and by football fans, clubs and brands.
Current Status
Fanera launched in late 2019 while only relying on inbound marketing. Since launch, the world markets have experienced turbulence due to Covid-19, however Fanera was still been able to make great strides and boasts the following stats:
Mobile app for Fans: 75,000+ active users, 1,200 daily snaps, 5,000 daily views, 50+ football influencers, 20% monthly growth.
Club Management Platform: Fanera has agreements with various partners, most notably the Supreme Committee in Qatar, the host of the World Cup 2022. Since launch Fanera has generated $43,000 in revenue
Market
Football is the most popular and most televised sport in the world. There are approximately 1.2 billion (and growing) football enthusiasts with internet enabled smartphones and the love of the sport at their fingertips. More importantly, Football has the most sponsorships worldwide, mainly due to the fact that it is a 40 billion dollar industry with an 8% annual growth.
Problem or Opportunity
3.5 Billion fans around the world are without a dedicated platform to unite them with one common interest, Football.
Fans currently have to follow dozens of sites to get all the latest football content which barely reaches 10% of fans due to a lack of personalization.
Football clubs are struggling to connect and monetize their audience beyond the match time
Brands are also experiencing a much lower ROI due to algorithms, are spending much more and reaching a maximum of 30% of their followers.
Solution (product or service)

Finance
Fanera’s business model focuses on three main pillars.
