WBC wallet pass
Fobi developed & deployed the WBC Fan Pass, launching with the Canelo v. Yildirim fight. WBC wanted a way to directly communicate with fans but didn't have a mobile application to do so. They were relying on their large social media following for communication, but there was no way to track sponsorship engagement. 

Leading up to and throughout fight night, Fobi engaged with fans using the WBC Fan Pass. Fobi provided:

-Fully managed notifications, promotions, and engagement
