Just launching a new concept of social casual betting in mobile&web app.
Would be great to have your feedback!
- currently on Fb connect because of social design - should we have twitter, email,...?
- we believe people bet because of fun and social challenge and so we avoid gambling with money - do you believe that can work?
- we invented a character - the Qwin Elizabet - to make it more fun and casual - we are betting on that! - what do you think?
If money is involved there's a whole host of betting regulation out there not least surrounding your target market (kids?).<p>But there's also some big players in that market too Betfair have pretty much cornered the adult market for peer-to-peer betting.<p>If money is not involved, where's the incentive to bet?
"we believe people bet because of fun and social challenge and so we avoid gambling with money"<p>I believe that people bet because of the challenge and because of the money.<p>I think it can definitely work. There are many gambling-like features in some of the popular games out there today.
I'm 35, so I'm not in your target market which is probably 25y/o males and younger. That said, I'm not sure your branding will appeal to that crowd.<p>As a concept I like the idea though. Again, best to ask your target market, which I kinda doubt is floating around HN.
