PROTIPPZ connects fans with athletes, allowing direct financial support, rewards, and unique experiences to close income gaps.
A New Era of Fan Engagement
In the world of sports, the connection between fans and athletes is undeniable, but Cory D. Raines saw an opportunity to strengthen that bond. In 2024, Raines launched PROTIPPZ, a platform that allows fans to support athletes directly, helping to address income disparities, particularly for those in smaller leagues and women’s sports. The platform offers fans the ability to tip athletes, earn rewards, and access exclusive experiences, all while helping athletes focus on their craft without worrying about financial stability.
Turning Passion into Paychecks
Raines was driven to create PROTIPPZ after seeing firsthand how many athletes, particularly those in underfunded leagues, face financial struggles despite their immense talent. “The income gap in sports is real, and we believe it’s time for change,” says Raines. With PROTIPPZ, Raines set out to bridge this gap by providing athletes with a platform that allows them to earn direct financial support from their fans, all while engaging with them in meaningful ways.
PROTIPPZ is designed to make sure athletes no longer have to choose between pursuing their dreams and securing a living. The platform enables direct tipping, as well as providing fans with rewards and unique access to athletes.
How PROTIPPZ Works: A New Kind of Fan Interaction
What distinguishes PROTIPPZ from other platforms is its holistic approach to fan-athlete interaction. Unlike traditional platforms that focus only on one-time donations, PROTIPPZ builds an ongoing relationship. The platform operates through four main components:
- TIPPZ: Fans can send direct financial support to athletes and teams.
- REWARDZ: Fans receive exclusive prizes and experiences for their support.
- PLAYERZ / TEAMZ: Athletes and teams earn passive income while building fan loyalty.
- STORE: Custom merchandise and limited-edition drops create deeper connections between fans and athletes.
This model not only allows for ongoing support but helps create a community that benefits both athletes and fans in a sustainable way.
A Platform for Underdogs: Supporting All Athletes
While many platforms focus on big-name athletes, PROTIPPZ aims to level the playing field by empowering athletes in smaller leagues, particularly women’s sports. “We are building a future where support means more than applause. It means income, opportunity, and ownership for athletes,” says Raines.
The platform provides consistent, direct financial support, which is a step away from reliance on sporadic sponsorships or media attention. By offering continuous fan support, PROTIPPZ ensures athletes can focus on what they do best, playing the sport they love.
Creating a Fan-Powered Economy
At its core, PROTIPPZ is more than just a tipping platform; it’s about creating a fan-powered economy that benefits everyone. By enabling fans to directly support athletes, the platform allows them to feel part of an athlete’s journey, making their contributions more meaningful. This model provides athletes with a stable source of income while giving fans a deeper connection to the athletes they support.
Fans don’t just passively watch the games anymore, they play an active role in an athlete’s financial success. In return, athletes can offer fans unique perks and exclusive content, making this a mutually beneficial system that strengthens the bond between them.
The Future of Sports: Empowering Athletes
PROTIPPZ isn’t just about helping athletes make ends meet; it’s about creating a more equitable sports system where all athletes, regardless of their fame or media exposure, can earn what they deserve. The platform’s mission is clear: close the income gap in sports by empowering fans to contribute to an athlete’s financial support in real-time.
By shifting how we think about athlete compensation and fan interaction, PROTIPPZ is helping to create a more inclusive sports ecosystem that benefits all players, whether in major leagues or smaller teams.
