Gulf modifies game this IPL with the launch of Gulf Fan Academy

Gulf Fan Academy is a user-friendly platform and will be available on MyJio App.

An interactive gaming website called Gulf Fan Academy, which will offer a variety of engaging interactions and delight cricket fans, was just launched by Gulf Oil India. The MyJio app now has access to the platform. Throughout the 2023 season, it will provide online cricket games with thrilling challenges and daily rewards for IPL fans.

Gulf Oil India launched Gulf Fan Academy as a way to interact with its customers and provide them with a unique gaming experience. The game is an extension of Gulf’s connection to cricket and offers a venue for cricket fans to demonstrate their abilities and enthusiasm.

The user-friendly, all-in-one IPL information portal will include games based on cricket, including batting and fielding challenges, trivia questions, word searches, and unscrambling activities where users can receive reward points for each accurate response.

 By purchasing Gulf products and authenticating their purchase by entering the code found on the product pack, players may earn bonus points. Out of 20,000 completed gratifications, the user’s standing on the daily, weekly, and season leaderboard will determine their reward. Free internet data, coupons for food delivery, signed photographs, match tickets, and the opportunity to play with their favorite cricket players are among the rewards. The game also gives players the option to share their leaderboard place with friends and family via social media websites.

Commenting on the launch, 

Ravi Chawla, MD & CEO, Gulf Oil Lubricants India Ltd., said, 

“We are excited to launch the Gulf Fan Academy for all the cricket lovers across the country. IPL is the biggest cricketing extravaganza in India. Instead of just plain visibility for the brand, we believe the Gulf Fan Academy will add a fun element and help us engage with our customers, mechanics, and retailers during this cricket season. Through Gulf Fan Academy, the winners will get an exciting money-can’t-buy experience, playing a game of cricket under the mentorship of Indian cricketing legends like Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Hardik Pandya, Smriti Mandhana, and CSK players”.

Rammohan Sundaram, President, Integrated Media, DDB Mudra Group, commented

“Gulf Fan Academy is creating an unparalleled experience for cricket fans by leveraging social integration, gamification, and advertising on live feeds in this first-of-its-kind integrated marketing effort. The unique experience will give fans the opportunity to participate in games, win match tickets, mentorship by the Chennai Super Kings’ players, and all 3 brand ambassadors of Gulf.”


With the help of its brand ambassadors MS Dhoni, Hardik Pandya, Smriti Mandhana, and the Chennai Super Kings team, the Gulf team has produced numerous visual assets. Through Jio Cinema, Jio Ads Network, and social media sites like Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube, among others, these will be used to advertise and run the Gulf Fan Academy.
