April 14 2020 - 8:00AM
Versus Systems, Inc. ("Versus") (CSE:VS) (OTCQB:VRSSF)
(FRANKFURT:BMVA) today announces an agreement with Kast to bring
Versus’ proprietary in-app rewards technology to Kast’s successful
watch party platform.
This is an important step for Versus in that
Kast is the first non-gaming content partner to integrate the
Versus rewards platform. Social streaming, watch parties and video
are a part of what Business Wire estimates as a $250 Billion
dollar global streaming market that is estimated to grow at 19%
CAGR through 2024.
Kast is a real-time video sharing app with
screen capture, voice, text, and video chat technology that makes
it easy to connect with friends wherever they are in a watch party.
Kast is the ultimate virtual living room solution for all your
content needs. Kast has recently been featured in well-known media
outlets like Wired, Mashable, The Next Web, The Evening Standard,
NBC and more.
The two companies will work together to
integrate real-world rewards into Kast’s watch party apps to
increase engagement for hosts of watch parties, known as “Kasters,”
and watch party spectators alike.
“Kast is a true pioneer in the watch party
space,” said John O’Connell, Head of Business Development for
Versus Systems. “We are excited to bring our in-game reward
technologies to their apps, creators and spectators later this
year.”
Justin Weissberg, Co-founder and President of
Kast commented: “Versus brings real, tangible rewards to their
partners’ growing audiences. We are excited to bring our community
rewards they can experience with their Kast friends and
family.”
