Case study

From objective to outcome.

Purpose

INK Games approached Contest Factory in search of a partner to provide official rules, prize fulfillment, and reporting services for Prize Kingdoms, its upcoming mobile game. INK Games needed a scalable solution that could support frequent prize awards while keeping the rules-generation, winner-selection, fulfillment, and reporting processes connected and efficient.

Plan

The plan was to develop a multi-faceted contest engine that would connect Contest Factory’s systems directly with INK Games’ Prize Kingdoms platform. Through multiple application programming interface (API) connections, the integrated system would enable INK Games to generate official rules automatically, notify Contest Factory whenever Prize Kingdoms created new prizes or selected a winner, and provide INK Games with real-time visibility into activity across the program.

Solution

Contest Factory worked closely with INK Games to design, develop, and launch the integrated contest engine. Using Contest Factory’s rules-generation technology, INK Games can automatically create official rules for Prize Kingdoms promotions through API calls between the two companies’ systems. When Prize Kingdoms selects a winner, the platform automatically sends the winner information to Contest Factory, initiating Contest Factory’s prize fulfillment process. Contest Factory also records the calls and events exchanged between the connected systems in its Viral DNA panel. This gives INK Games easy access to real-time reporting on official rules activity, winner notifications, prize fulfillment events, and other program data from a centralized dashboard.

Results

Prize Kingdoms launched in 2023 with Contest Factory’s integrated technology and services supporting the promotion infrastructure behind the game. Since launch, INK Games has awarded more than $170,000 in prizes to over 5,700 winners through Prize Kingdoms. The partnership gives INK Games a scalable, automated system for administering a high volume of promotions while Contest Factory manages the official rules, prize fulfillment, and real-time reporting needed to keep the program running smoothly.
