Scaling 1.5 Lakh App Signups at Just ₹8 Each in a Regulated Market

Industry :
Fantasy Sports
Location :
India

Background

FreeHit is a new-age fantasy gaming startup entering a competitive and regulated market in India. With no existing branding or digital presence, their main goal was to generate app signups while keeping the cost per signup below ₹12. Since the app couldn’t be listed on Google Play or Apple App Store, users had to be directed to a custom landing page with clear installation instructions.

Problem

Promoting a fantasy gaming app in India came with several challenges:

  • The app wasn’t available on traditional app stores, making conversions more complex
  • Legal restrictions in states like Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana limited the target audience
  • Meta Ads required certification and business verification, causing repeated ad disapprovals initially
  • As a new brand, FreeHit had no prior audience data, creatives, or proven ad funnels to rely on

Solution

We built a complete marketing and technical setup to generate cost-effective, compliant app signups. This included a high-converting landing page, verified Meta Ads, policy-compliant ad creatives, and continuous A/B testing to optimize performance.

Results

  • Achieved 1.5 lakh app signups at an average cost per signup of ₹8, well below the ₹12 target
  • Established a verified and compliant Meta Ads account for future campaigns
  • Built a data-backed audience strategy for scaling user acquisition
  • Created a strong digital foundation for FreeHit’s branding and growth
