Our Story
Upside launched in 2018 with a single principle: Fantasy sports
should be better. Why be restricted to a handful of apps, all with
basically the same gameplay? So we made it our mission to bring
fantasy to the local level, and put the creativity behind the
games into your hands.
Since then, Upside has teamed with universities, sports bars, pro
leagues, podcasts, distillers and more to create unique,
individualized, homegrown fantasy tournaments and challenges. With
custom prizes and seamless gameplay, Upside has helped our
partners engage with thousands of users and fans across dozens of
industries throughout the US and abroad.
Looking to engage with your base in fun and rewarding way? Let
Upside work for you! Reach out to us and let's see if we're a fit.
