Features of CrickPe

CrickPe is a newly launched cricket-focused fantasy sports app that enables users above 18 years of age to create virtual cricket teams and participate in paid contests to win cash prizes based on the real-life performance of players.
Users can also create private groups and compete in contests to earn rewards. The app will charge a 10% platform fee for any public or private contest. It will offer free contests for users to improve their skills.
The platform has a unique feature that allows users to send cash rewards to their favourite cricketers, with amounts ranging from Rs 100 – Rs 100,000 per cricketer per financial year.
CrickPe will charge a 10% fee for transactions of cash rewards accepted by cricketers starting from June 2023. However, the app is not acting as an agent of cricketers and is solely offering the feature as a user agent.
