Watching sports should bring people together, not push them toward a betting slip. As sports betting has taken over the fan experience, the simple joy of watching a game with your family has gotten lost. Bangr brings it back.
We're building a game that makes every pitch, down, and possession more exciting, that rewards knowledge and instinct instead of a wager, and that a parent and a kid can play side by side in the same living room or the same stadium seats. Our team is committed to bringing fun back to the game for everyone.
Bangr was founded by Jay Severson, a co-founder of Chess.com, the platform that grew into the largest chess community in the world. Building Chess.com taught him how a simple, community-based platform can bring millions of people together around something they love.
As a father of three, Jay wanted something he could play with his own kids at the game: a kid-friendly way for them to get involved and share the fun. As betting apps took over sports, there was no version made for families. So he built it.
Bangr is free, it's for everyone, and it makes every game more fun. Download it and call the next play, or join us in building it.
