Wanna.com launches daily fantasy sports app Wanna Parlay

Wanna.com has announced the launch of its daily fantasy sports app, Wanna Parlay. With Wanna Parlay, players can compete against others to see who can build the best parlay and finish in the top 10 on any contest leaderboard to take home a substantial cash prize.

Described in a press release as the "richest parlay in the world", the app offers multiple new contests every week and allows multiple entries. Unlike traditional fantasy sports games that confine players to specific lineups (e.g., 1 QB, 2 RBs, 2 WRs), Wanna Parlay empowers users to create their own unique parlays with varying amounts and types of picks.

This approach allows competitors to craft strategies that reflect their personal styles, making the competition more "dynamic and engaging". To win, players must not only succeed in their parlays but also outscore their competitors, with points awarded based on the difficulty of the parlay. The parlays can be a multitude of teams winning via spread, winner, player props, over or under-scoring, and or extra innings or overtimes.

Wanna Parlay is now available for download on the Apple App Store for IOS devices and the Google Play Store for Android devices, offering players the "best risk" to reward possibilities and the opportunity to compete in multiple contests each week and vie for huge cash prizes. 

Wanna Parlay is the brainchild of two entrepreneurs and former NFL & USFL Professional Football players and Division 1 College athletes, Jim Bob Morris and Carson Coffman, both having honed their competitive edge as Division 1 athletes at Kansas State University.

Jim Bob Morris, CEO of Wanna.com, said: "There is tremendous value in experiencing these moments together. That's why we focus so much on creating fun and exciting competitions that connect people. Whether you're celebrating a win or reflecting on a close loss, we want our players to feel alive and part of something bigger."

For his part, Carson Coffman added: "We are both super competitive and that lead us to create something that matched our backgrounds in professional sports and elite Division 1 athletics, the drive fueled us to create the most competitive and engaging daily fantasy sports platforms in the world, designed for those who love the thrill of competition as much as we do."

The original product, Wanna, is a social peer-to-peer (p2p) gambling app that was launched in Brazil in 2019. Since then, the Wanna team has been developing new games and social features to enhance the user experience. Wanna Parlay was initially created as a feature within the original Wanna app to offer larger prizes for parlays.
