Every frame is a score that counts.

Each roll your lanes record feeds live house leaderboards, personal streaks, and venue-wide rankings — turning one-off sessions into repeat bookings without extra staff or hardware.

The Funky-Verse roster

Guests pick a character. You keep the profile.

Every group that scans in becomes a named player with a living avatar, a level and a Funk Power score your venue owns — so the people on your lanes stop being anonymous walk-ins.

Collectible Power Cards

Cards that change the game — and the reason to come back.

Players unlock Funky-Verse Power Cards on your lanes. Each one multiplies their Funk Power and rewrites how a frame scores, so the collection they’ve built only pays off inside your venue.

Questions operators actually ask

How does this integrate with our scoring system?
Funk Arena connects to your current scoring software (Funk Nexus) via lightweight REST API webhooks (POST /v1/sessions/ingest). No new hardware, no POS terminal changes, no staff retraining.
Will it cannibalize our traditional league nights?
No. Funk Arena targets casual bowlers, party groups, and walk-ins who don't join 30-week leagues — unlocking a new recurring segment on higher-margin nights.
Is guest data handled securely?
GDPR-compliant. HMAC-signed webhooks. Guests control screennames and profile prefs. Venues get aggregate analytics, not individual PII.
How quickly can we deploy?
Zero hardware install and no staff retraining — most venues go live in under 24 hours from kickoff.
What does it cost my guests?
Nothing. The app is free. Optional cosmetic upgrades are the only paid layer.
Can guests game the handicap?
PartyCap targets casual leagues, so sandbagging is low-stakes. The algorithm detects unnatural variance and freezes the handicap to prevent abuse.
