Social TV App Exclusively For Sports Fans Raises $2 Million; Seeks To Cure Watching Sports Alone – Forbes
The company just announced its United States launch, which means that it has not yet captured a vast American audience. However, since launching overseas in October 2011, fanatix has received more than 250,000 downloads and has a daily active user base of over 35,000. The average fanatix user is now accessing the app five-and-a-half times a day, with the average registered user accessing the service over ten times per day. And there are already signs that Americans will be interested in the app. 10% of the app’s current audience is from the U.S., which makes it the second largest market after the U.K.
Another strong sign for fanatix is that it recently received $1 million in angel funding, giving the company a total of $2 million in raised capital within the span of a year.
