For high schools and middle schools

School spirit, scored.

Fan Points rewards students for showing up and cheering on their school. They scan a QR code at the game, earn points and trade them for rewards. Your athletic office gets live scores, stats and a crowd that keeps coming back.

  • Nothing to download: it runs in any phone's web browser.
  • Student data stays in your school's own Google account.
  • One yearly price per school, with every feature included.
Why schools use it

Fuller stands. Happier teams.

Students go where their friends go. Fan Points turns every game, concert and event into something worth showing up for, and gives the office the tools to run game day from one place.

01

A reason to come

Points for every check-in, double-point nights, shout codes, class battles, prize drawings and badges for coming to many games and many sports.

02

Every team, in the spotlight

Live scores, box scores, season stats, player cards and recaps for every team, not just the big ones. Parents follow along from anywhere.

03

Run game day from one place

Games, rewards, sponsors, drawings, the gym display and reports, all from one admin page your athletic office can learn in an afternoon.

How it works

From the gym door to the prize table

Show the code

The office puts the game's QR code on the gym display, a phone or a printed sign. The code changes every 30 seconds, so an old photo of it doesn't work.

Scan to check in

Students scan with their phone and sign in with their school Google account. Parents and fans use the fan site with any email.

Earn points

Every check-in counts, with extra points on big nights. The gym display shows the crowd count and the class battle live.

Trade for rewards

Students spend points on rewards the school chooses: food, gear, front-row seats, parking spots. The office hands them out with one tap.

One app, four views

Built for everyone at the game

Each person gets the view they need, and only what they're allowed to see.

A game manager scores from a phone with big, simple buttons. Fans see the score live, and the season stats build themselves.

  • A game clock that updates the moment it changes
  • Box scores, season stats, player cards and Player of the Game
  • Who's dressed and who's on the court, so only players in the game can score
  • One person can run the clock and the plays, or split the jobs
  • Stats download as a spreadsheet for the coach

Put the crowd on the big screen

Open the display on any TV or projector. It shows the check-in codes, the crowd count, the class battle, the live score and your sponsors, and updates by itself.

  • Crowd battles against the other school
  • Prize drawings with the winner on screen

Live video and linked games

TV-style graphics for every stream

Stream a game on your school's own YouTube channel, and Fan Points adds the graphics: the score bug, the starting lineup, players on fire and big moments, timed to match the video.

  • Free or paid viewing, with watch codes limited to a set number of devices
  • Season access for families who want every game
  • Players can choose to show as their number only
  • When both schools use Fan Points, link the game: each scores its own team and both see the full score

Privacy and security

Student data stays at your school

Fan Points runs inside your school's own Google account. Names, grades, check-ins, photos and stats are stored there, under your school's control, not on our servers.

Your account, your data

Everything about your students lives in your school's Google Drive. Our licence server only checks the licence and sends updates; it never receives a student's name or email.

Locked down by design

Every action is checked on the server. Coaches see only their team. Codes change, expire and can't be reused. Each school's install has its own private key.

Students choose what's public

Public pages show first names and last initials only, and only when the team shares stats and the player allows it. Player photos need two staff approvals.

Getting started

Set up in an afternoon

We set Fan Points up with your athletic office, in your school's Google account. No servers to buy, no app store, no IT project.

  • We install it with you, step by step
  • Import your schedule and rosters from the files you already have
  • Pick your colors and upload your logo
  • Updates arrive by themselves; nothing to reinstall

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do students need to download an app?

No. Fan Points runs in the phone's web browser. Students scan the QR code with their camera and sign in with their school Google account. Parents and fans use the fan site with any email.

What does our school need?

A Google account for the school (Google Workspace for Education works), someone in the athletic office to run it, and a phone, tablet or screen to show the check-in code at games.

Where is student information stored?

In your school's own Google account. Our licence server never receives student names or emails. It only checks your licence, sends app updates and keeps a health check so we can help if something goes wrong.

Can a student check in without being at the game?

The check-in code changes every 30 seconds and works only while the game's check-in is open, so an old photo of the code doesn't work. A student would have to be sent a fresh code by someone in the stands at that moment.

Who scores the games?

Any coach or game manager the school adds, from their phone. A student can be a game manager with the coach's request and an admin's approval. The office can also do it.

Does it work for events other than sports?

Yes. Concerts, plays, assemblies and club events can all have check-ins and points. Any event can show a simple score if it needs one.

What does it cost?

One yearly price per school, with every feature included and no add-ons to buy. District pricing is available. Contact us for a quote for your school.

How do we get help?

Email support@gofanpoints.com. Every page also has a "Report a problem" button that sends us what went wrong, without any student names.
