Pick Top Teams
About the project
As online betting started to be legal in a lot of states in the US, the market had a lot of potential. So our marketing team wanted to create a new mechanic to support betting on favourite sports in the US.
List of teams is presented to a user and his/her task is to pick 6 of them, which he/she thinks will score the most goals/points and even order them based on the goals/points scored from the highest value. After all matches are finished, users will get points based on their predictions. Based on the awarding scheme, prizes are given to users.
My responsibilities
My job was to create the front-end of this mechanic, which included communication with stakeholders, project managers, QA, UX/UI designer, as well as easy theming and localisation. A few feeds were also integrated on the front-end (statistics, upsell, live state).
The biggest challenge
The biggest challenge was to implement Live view. If a user is on the promo page when any of the matches is being played, the promo page shows 6 teams with the most goals/points scored in descending order and compares it with the user’s prediction „real-time“ (60s polling).
