The Client

The Football Company is an advanced fantasy football mobile solution, closely bound with the NFT Marketplace, where users connect, play, and monetize the game experience.

The Challenge

TFC had to quickly assemble a skilled and diverse development team. They hired Notch to build the platform’s architecture for scalablity and resilience. The team had a deadline — the start of Germany’s Bundesliga season.

The Solution

Notch assembled a dedicated, cross-functional team to design and build TFC’s fantasy football mobile app and live data platform on a scalable, resilient architecture, giving fans a fast, immersive way to follow matches and manage their squads in real time. The solution delivers live notifications and results across iOS and Android, supports rich features like 3D avatars and an NFT marketplace, and gives TFC a single digital foundation to run campaigns, evolve gameplay, and grow a highly engaged community of football fans.
