PvP: Where Gamers Unite
Our mission is to unite the global gaming community with the largest industry-specific social platform ever created - one true gamer social community.
gif
We connect the world’s 2.7 billion gamers with each other through a lifetime digital gamer identity and social community - all together in one place.
The Problem
We Believe Gaming Lacks One, Unified Space to Connect
We believe there is no singular space that allows gamers to connect and build community.
Gamers need a foundational connection to pursue their individual aspirations of playing, streaming, and constantly improving.
The Solution
Discover. Connect. Game.
We are here to connect the world’s gamers with each other.
We do this with a lifetime digital gamer identity and social identity that is the one place where they meet, connect, build, improve, and grow together.

In our space, players can:
Build a profile
Showcase stats
Squad up with other gamers of their caliber
Grow their reach
The Market
Massive Opportunity
We operate within a $57.9BN global market opportunity - that’s a fast growing industry.
And it shows. There is a 13.4% projected CAGR through 2023 (source). Not to mention, the 2019 consumer video game spend was three-times the size of the entire global box office, at $120 billion (source).
Our Traction
Our Milestones
It’s fairly easy to say that gamers like us so far. That’s why we have:
What We Do
Unite the Global Gaming Community
Our core value is founded on creating connections.
We do this through our Squad Finder feature that enables users to search for gamers, build teams, communicate through chat and many other features across games, platform and skill level.
Our Twitch extension feature allows streamers to engage with their subscribers by tapping into the PvP app during their Twitch stream.
Built around all of this are:
Gamer-tailored profile pages
Content search features
News feed
Messaging across mobile (Android and iOS) and desktop applications.
The Business Model
Freemium to Premium
We are pre-revenue and run a freemium model with plans to add in premium subscription and advertising monetization in the 2nd half of 2021.
We are confident in this. That’s because we’ve done early testing on audience willingness to pay for and accept versions of these features, and have had good success.
Our strategy is to continue to grow our user base via a freemium model, and then turn on monetization once at scale (soft target of 250k monthly active users).
How We Are Different
Industry Leaders
The gaming industry is fast growing and developing in new ways.
Large players like Twitch and Discord have scaled quickly by focusing on in-game tools to support game play for streaming and chat.
That means large social companies like YouTube and Facebook have also focused on supporting streamers.
PvP is different in that we focus on connecting gamers and helping them to build teams outside of gameplay through our community - player to player.
The Vision
Our Roadmap
Our vision is to unite the global gaming community and exit within the next 2-5 years to another gaming or social media company.
gif
OUR LEADERSHIP
The Lead Gamers
Our team of leadership is made of up gamers - all with prior gaming & startup success.
On top of that, our investors and advisors behind us are experienced and influential - have led us to our current and growing success as a platform.
Why Invest
Breaking Boundaries
There is a power and excitement to connecting gamers - it has a global human impact.
We are helping gamers meet across international boundaries, breaking down cultural barriers through shared gaming experiences and community.
Operating in a fast-growing market worth $57.9BN with 2.7 billion players - we are in the right place at the right time to build a gaming community.

Final Day to Invest + Thank you from PvP CEO
Good afternoon, PvP shareholders and potential investors,
As our campaign comes to a close I want to personally thank you for investing in PvP.com and for joining our mission to build one of the first gamer social networks. There are now over 500 PvP shareholders and counting. You are among those who can clearly see the massive industry growth and a shift toward platforms that connect gamers have created an amazing opportunity for PvP.com. We’re at the forefront of the evolution of the $300B and growing gaming market.
And the global opportunity is too big for us to remain limited by the boundaries of the US. We will soon be expanding internationally in a measured and strategic way.
The future of gaming will look very different from today. Thanks in large part to your support, PvP is positioned to lead this powerful transformation for the years to come. On behalf of PvP, thank you for your support and for being part of our success.
Gratefully,
Phil Stover
Founder & CEO, PvP.com

Hello,
Is it intentional that the campaign is open at this time? I see a prior comment that it was closed early. If so, are the promoted posts from the first 100 Tier 2 investors exhausted at this time? Can you provide the expected number of views or clicks for a promoted post?
Additionally, can you provide insight on how the funds raised in this round will be primarily utilized? How long do you expect it will be before needing additional funding rounds (assuming this round closes at its current amount raised)? If significant additional funding were added before the end of this round, would it be utilized to increase velocity (i.e. hire additional development or operational staff) or for other goals?
Thank you

Hi thank you for the response. I’m not sure if my question was understood. But just to clarify where would investors of PVP go to trade their shares. I emailed start engine regarding there secondary trading platform and was informed it’s on for Regulation A+ shares. With PvP being crowd funding where does that leave investors to take profits for their shares? Lastly please see below the message from start engine:
Thank you for contacting StartEngine.
Currently, the only shares that are tradable on Secondary are StartEngine's Reg A+ shares.

Hello, my name is Nolan.
I have chosen to invest in your company because it seems like a very viable product and your company is very active.
I was curious if your company did any partnerships with other companies.
I own a Web Hosting/Game Development company and would be interested in working with your company.

Hello,
I'm strongly interested in investing in PvP. One suggestion I believe that would be beneficial is to offer t-shirts/clothing with the PvP logo on them as it could potentially bring in more investors and act as free marketing.

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.
With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000, are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.
At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.
Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.
StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.
For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.
For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the company’s offering circular.
Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.
Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the account associated with the investment.
Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements. To learn more about Regulation Crowdfunding, click here, and for Regulation A+, click here.
