With this launch, the organizers are taking the new Cleeng Portal as a backbone solution that helps them sell worldwide, on any device, including mobile and Roku. The main offer, the Supercross Video Pass provides access to all 17 rounds of the 3-hour Monster Energy Supercross television broadcast (2018), every race from the last three seasons (2015-2017), plus the 2015 and 2016 Monster Energy Cup races and an additional library of original content.
“We chose to work with Cleeng again in 2018 based on our experience with them this past season,” said Sam Gomez, Vice President of Digital Marketing for Feld Entertainment®. “They provide a great way to monetize premium video content and reach a global audience. Their new live portal provided us with a scalable solution that included responsive design, several membership offerings and a simple way to present upcoming live events, alongside our VOD content.”
