For Brands & Sponsors

Prove Your
Sponsorship
Worked.

Verified purchase attribution, challenge sponsorship, audience targeting, and clean room matching — all built on a consent-verified fan identity graph. No surveys, no guessing.

How It Works
1

Fan Links a Card

A fan adds their debit or credit card in the Fantera app. One tap. That’s it.

2

Fan Shops at Participating Locations

Fan pays normally. No special process, no coupon, no app scan. The purchase is automatically detected via the card network.

3

You Get the Data

Every transaction creates a verified data point tied to a real fan. Attribution you can prove, not self-reported surveys.

Sponsor Capabilities

Attribution Data
That Proves ROI.
