Full on match day.
Busy on a Tuesday.
On match day, clubs can give fans more points for checking in at your bar than for watching from home. The rest of the week, your own deals show up in the Game Set Engage app for fans nearby, on the nights you pick.
Pay-for-performance, start to finish
The opportunity
Fans are already searching for a place to watch.
Every fixture, supporters within walking distance of your bar decide where to watch — and most of them default to the sofa. The match is free at home; you need to make leaving the house worth it.
On Game Set Engage, that maths changes. Clubs can make a check-in at a partner bar worth more points than one from home — each club sets the exact values — and your own offer stacks on top. Triple screens, a pint deal, and points they can spend in club auctions beats the couch.
Your bar appears inside the club’s own campaign — name, offer, and directions — in the app fans open for their club, and your standing offers keep you there between games.
Beyond match day
Match day fills itself. Your deals can fill the rest of the week.
Most bars are packed for the big game and half-empty on a Tuesday. The match day check-in takes care of the first. For the second, you publish your own deals, and fans who follow your partner clubs find them on the nights you choose.

Pick your quiet days
Once a club approves your partnership, publish a standing offer to its fans. Choose the days of the week it runs, and add start and end dates if you want them. Pause it or change it whenever you like.
Fans nearby see it
Your offer shows on the home screen of the Game Set Engage app for fans near your venue, on every day it runs. Fans who follow the club claim it in the app when they come in.

The fan shows a QR code; you confirm it in the Game Set Engage Venues app. You pay the club’s fee only for redemptions you’ve confirmed, and the club can add points on top.

Example screens with made-up venues. Each club approves your offers before they go live, and again when you change or resume one, unless it has switched approval off.
Why sports bars win
The natural home of the away fixture.
Big matches, full bar
Screens, atmosphere, and other fans — you already have what home can't offer. The points ladder and your offer just make it official.
More clubs, more match days
Partner with every club your regulars follow — the local side, the rugby club, or a team from another country entirely. A London bar full of Galatasaray supporters is a partnership waiting to happen.
Know what's working
Your dashboard shows confirmed check-ins by day and by hour, how many different fans came in, and which campaigns and offers actually fill seats — not a gut feeling, a number.
Your offer, your rules
Offers that get fans off the sofa.
Two kinds of deal: the one fans see next to your name in each match day campaign you join, and standing offers of your own on the days you choose, once a club approves your partnership. What works for bars:
10–20% off the tab
The classic. Simple to run, easy for fans to understand, and it scales with the group size.
Free pint with a burger
Pair the offer with food and the average spend goes up, not down.
2-for-1 selected drinks
Drive the first round to the bar early and the group settles in for the whole game.
Quiet-night special
Wings night, a quiz round, a Monday happy hour: a standing offer on your slowest nights gives regulars a reason to come in between games.

Common questions from sports bars.
There are no setup fees or monthly subscriptions. You pay a fee, set by each club, for every check-in and offer redemption you confirm at your bar — if no fans come in, you pay nothing. Game Set Engage sends you one invoice a month.
No. Match days bring the biggest crowds, but a bar needs the other nights too. Once a club approves your partnership, you can run standing offers on the days you choose — a Tuesday wings night, a Monday happy hour — and fans near your bar see them in the Game Set Engage app on every day they run.
Clubs can make a check-in at a partner bar worth more engagement points than one from home — each club sets the exact values for its campaigns, so they can reward the fans who show up. On top of that, fans get your exclusive offer: a pint deal, a food offer, whatever you set. Points plus a discount makes your bar the obvious choice.
No hardware at all. Fans check in from their own phones: at your bar they show you a QR code in the Game Set Engage app, and you approve it in the Game Set Engage Venues app. No tablets, no till integration, nothing to mount on the wall.
Absolutely — and they don’t have to be local. Partner with the football club down the road, the rugby side across town, and a club from another country whose expat fans drink at your bar. Each club approves you separately, and every partnership is another set of match days with your name in the app.
Whatever works for your bar. Popular offers include 10–20% off the tab, a free pint with a burger, 2-for-1 on selected drinks, or a special on your quietest night. You can set a different deal for each match day campaign, and run standing offers on the days you choose.
