ANGEL CITY FOOTBALL CLUB PARTNERS WITH VENUETIZE TO LAUNCH MOBILE APP FOCUSED ON FOSTERING A CONNECTED FAN COMMUNITY

LOS ANGELES and TAMPA, Fla., March 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Angel City FC (ACFC), Los Angeles' professional women's soccer team set to take the pitch this Spring, has partnered with Venuetize, the leaders in mobile-first and advanced payment technology, to deliver an innovative way for fans to engage with the ACFC community through a dedicated mobile app.

The mobile application – which is now available in the App Store and Google Play Store –  features a community chat function that enables Season Ticket Holders and Supporters to connect with one another in-venue or at home, a first for Venuetize. Other features will include an integration with Ticketmaster for Mobile Ticketing, Team and Event News, Community Updates, and the ability to access the Team Store to purchase merchandise. Users will also be able to tune in to Spotify playlists from their favorite ACFC players.

The second phase of the mobile application, launching ahead of their first match at Banc of California Stadium, Angel City's home pitch, will host gameday and team-focused features such as Rosters, Player Profiles, Schedule, Live Stats, and Results as part of their NWSL/OPTA integration. Venuetize's e-commerce capabilities will also allow fans to use their phones for mobile ordering and mobile payments at the stadium.

"It became evident in our first meeting that Venuetize was the right partner to build our mobile experience. They understood our need to build a fan-engagement app that combines utility, commerce, and community that also allows us to interact with our fans in a way that is uniquely Angel City," said ACFC Founder and President Julie Uhrman. "Our ACFC supporter community is a direct extension of our team, and we are building this app with them in mind, getting their feedback and direction throughout the process. In addition to helping our fans stay up to date with ACFC news, they will learn about our players and games, purchase tickets, and buy merch. Most importantly for ACFC, the app will allow our community to chat directly with each other, allowing our fans to self-organize, and thus build a stronger bond united around all things Angel City."

"The new Angel City FC mobile application is a unique experience that best represents the club's diverse and passionate fan base," said DC Ramsey, Vice President of Marketing at Venuetize. "We are thrilled to be working with Angel City FC, who works with us to try new technologies, like the chat functionality that is a first in our space. We are proud to have helped Angel City FC deliver a mobile experience that prides itself on a sense of community, and we hope to showcase new and innovative solutions for the club as our partnership continues to grow."
