“Data collected from all of the football sites with the help of Bango Analytics show that the clubs who use instantly visible animated promotions on their club’s PC web homepage generate the most sales. Teams like Tottenham Hotspur often accompany features on its star players such as Robbie Keane with links to download mobile photographs and cartoon animations. Features about mobile content online or in match day programmes also have a big impact on visitors and content sales.”

AnimationFC creates and supplies content to UK league football clubs, including its unique brand of player animation images and videos that can be downloaded and paid for by fans anywhere in the world. The mobile club sites are powered by Bango’s global payment system to provide fast, easy access and charging for content using a variety of methods from on-bill payment to Paypal and credit/debit card. AnimationFC also provides other official, high quality content including screensavers, wallpapers and realtones, tailored for each club. Learn more at http://bango.com/casestudies/animationfc.aspx

“Mobile browsing is still a pretty new experience for most football fans so it’s all about getting their attention and showing them what the mobile web offers,” said Skelhorn. “Visitors need to see what they are going to purchase. For example, if the PC internet promotion offers new 3D-mobile content using static images, fans may simply not click through. That’s why the top performing sites are using real animation with easy to understand instructions to get people to go mobile. Importantly it shows the product for what it is. Making the whole mobile content purchasing experience quick and transparent is also important as fans are visiting the mobile sites from countries all around the world; and this is where Bango comes in.”

“The mobile web creates the perfect environment for football clubs to extend their brands to an international fan base and build a new revenue stream,” said Ray Anderson CEO, Bango. “One-click transparent billing builds consumer trust and our new Bango Analytics package makes it easy for clubs to measure the success of marketing activities and to optimise campaigns.”
