About DraftFury


DraftFury
is a U.S. based daily fantasy sports (DFS) site that officially
launched on July 4th, 2015. DraftFury currently offers MLB, NFL, and NBA
daily and weekly fantasy contests, with plans on offering PGA and
eSports contests in the near future. In addition to the traditional
salary cap game format, DraftFury has introduced the simple and fun
Pick’Em game format that will attract a broader DFS user base. DraftFury
contest prize distribution types include GPP tournaments, leagues,
50/50s, and head-to-heads. The majority of DraftFury’s contest prize
pools are guaranteed!


Prior to its public launch, DraftFury’s development team carefully
and comprehensively surveyed the DFS landscape and gave serious
consideration to the pros and cons of each facet of the business.
Utilizing the direct results of this extensive research, DraftFury
designed a DFS platform that has taken the best features of DFS and
improved upon them.


DraftFury’s overall approach is threefold: to make DFS games more
welcoming and accessible for new and casual players, to enhance the
experience for existing players relative to other DFS sites, and to
reward DraftFury users for promoting the fun and excitement of
DraftFury’s DFS contests.


As discussed in more detail below, DraftFury’s Pick’Em contest
format, Fury Arena, and 7-Level Referral Program are creative
innovations that resolve many of the DFS industry’s most pressing
problems. Combined with DraftFury’s carefully designed intuitive and
streamlined interface, these innovations will have a dramatic and
positive effect on the DFS player experience.


Company Background


DraftFury is based and operated in Pasadena, California, by Think
Logica, LLC, a California limited liability company. DraftFury is
privately owned and fully funded by its founders, who come from
accomplished backgrounds in finance, computer engineering, law, and
payment services. DraftFury is an active member of the Fantasy Sports
Trade Association (FSTA). Some of DraftFury’s esteemed strategic
partners include Sportradar US, Rotowire, and PayPal.


The DraftFury Difference


Pick’Em Contests


According to a study conducted by the FSTA, there are 56.8 million
people in North America who play fantasy sports, yet only a small
percentage of those people currently play DFS. One likely cause of this
low conversion rate is the common misconception that DFS is too
complicated and time-consuming due to the complexities of the
traditional salary cap game format. DraftFury addresses this concern
with the introduction of the Pick’Em contest format, which provides new
players a quick and simple way to transition to DFS.


In Pick’Em contests, DraftFury places select athletes into nine
separate groups based on their expected performance. There are between
five to nine athletes in each group. To form a lineup, a player simply
chooses one athlete from each group — there are no positions or salaries
to worry about.

Pick’Em lineups can be easily created in minutes on a mobile device.
Because Pick’Em contests are straightforward and do not have a steep
learning curve, new users can participate in and immediately join in the
fun of DFS!


DraftFury truly believes that DFS provides a highly entertaining
fantasy sports and exciting gaming experience that everyone should try.
Pick’Em contests are the ideal game format to introduce to new DFS
players and to smoothly transition season-long fantasy players to DFS.
As users get acclimated to DFS via Pick’Em contests, DraftFury is
confident that they will become permanent DFS aficionados.


Fury Arena


New player acquisition is important to the DFS industry, but the
retention of existing players is equally important. One widespread
complaint amongst existing DFS players involves the inability to play
head-to-head matches against non-professional players. The typical
scenario on other sites is: a casual DFS player creates several
head-to-head contests, but all contests are instantly taken by
high-volume DFS professionals.


To combat this problem, DraftFury forged Fury Arena, a battlefield where players enter head-to-head contests anonymously,
and are then paired up by DraftFury’s skill-based match generator. To
participate in Fury Arena, competitors simply select their desired head-
to-head contest format (either Pick’Em or traditional salary cap) and
entry fee, and then create their lineup. The number of entries in Fury
Arena are shown, but the identities of the entrants are anonymous. When
the contests begin, DraftFury’s proprietary algorithm uses a multitude
of factors in the entrants’ histories to match them with opponents of
similar skill level. Newcomers and recreational players will be matched
with each other, while experienced and professional players will be
matched with each other (or won’t be matched at all).


Fury Arena is the answer to DFS players’ demand for fair and competitive head-to-head matches.


DraftFury is the ONLY DFS
site that meets players’ demand for fair and competitive head-to-head
matches with the introduction of the innovative FURY ARENA!
