You’ve Got Stan Sport

Did You Know That Means You’ve Also Got FANZO?

You’ve taken a great first step. By subscribing to Stan Sport, you’ve unlocked access to world-class live sport like the English Premier League and UEFA Champions League, all international rugby union matches and all major grand slam tennis tournaments (like the Australian Open and Wimbledon). That content is a magnet for sports fans but only if they know you’re showing it.

And that’s the challenge.

Whether you're in a busy city centre or a coastal town, the reality is the same: you’re running a venue, juggling staffing, ordering, events, compliance and trying to do your own marketing on top of all that? It's hard. Time’s tight, budgets are tighter, and keeping your website, social media, and local listings updated with the latest fixtures can easily fall to the bottom of the list.

That’s where the new Stan Sport + FANZO partnership comes in - giving you tools to make your sport more visible, without adding to your workload.

What’s included with your Stan Sport subscription

All Stan Sport commercial subscribers are now featured on the Stan Sport venue finder on FANZO - used by over 3 million sports fans a year looking for places to watch the game. Your venue profile includes a Stan Sport icon, so anyone searching for fixtures on Stan Sport knows you can show them.

But it doesn’t stop there.

You also now have access to FANZO Venues, a powerful tool that makes planning and promoting sport at your venue simple, fast, and effective.

Through the Stan Sport partnership, you can:

  • Edit and update your profile on the FANZO venue finder

That’s a great starting point. But if you want your Stan Sport subscription to really pay off, you need to go beyond just being listed.

Marketing that’s actually do-able

You’re not alone if you’ve struggled to get the word out about your sport offering. We hear it all the time:

“I don’t have time to update the website every week.”

“I want to post on social but never get around to it.”

“We show loads of games, but I’m not sure customers know.”

These are all valid concerns.

Most venue owners and managers know sport can drive footfall but getting people through the door takes visibility. And visibility takes marketing. Not just once, but consistently.

Here’s what that often involves:

  • Researching what fixtures are coming up
  • Typing them into your website 
  • Making eye-catching social media posts
  • Staying active on Facebook or Instagram
  • Creating window posters or POS to catch walk-ins

It’s no small task - especially if you’re doing it all yourself.

How FANZO Venues Helps You Do More, with Less Effort

This is where FANZO Venues becomes a game changer. It’s a tool built specifically for venues that show sport and it’s designed to save you time, reduce hassle, and get more punters in the door. 

With FANZO Venues, you can:

Plan your sport: See every upcoming fixture on the channels you have in one place. Choose what you want to show and advertise with a couple of clicks.

Advertise fixtures online: Your listings are updated on the FANZO venue finder - actively used by thousands of fans each week.

Automatically update your website: Use the FANZO Fixture Widget, which plugs into your website and displays your upcoming sport and automatically updates. No need to manually input games.

Get custom-branded social assets: Each week, FANZO emails you ready-to-use graphics to promote your chosen sport on social media. It’s as easy as uploading a photo – just two minutes and you’re done.

It’s not about flashy campaigns or gimmicks – it’s about consistent, professional marketing made quick and simple.
