Apurva Kumar, Co-Founder, Qureka shares, “With the rise of the digitally inclined India, we wanted to create a gaming platform which is mainstream and socially acceptable. We are looking at reaching the 5 million downloads mark by early next year. The live quiz show format of the game was designed for a highly engaging user experience and to expand the knowledge pool of the users. India is steadily entering the global digital gaming scene, creating a platform that is not restricted to only gamers and is inclusive of the masses is the key game changer. A 90% mobile penetration is expected in India by 2022, we aim to capture this growth and reach out to the next 500 million Indians through the premium version of the app – Qureka Pro. The technologically advanced version will be multilingual thus tapping into the wider spectrum of audience.”
Shalini Tewari, Co-Founder, Qureka believes, “A product that delivers on great engagement coupled with learning capacities is a clear winner. People perform their best when they are placed in a competitive environment, so we envisioned Qureka as a platform that mentally stimulates the audience and brings out the healthy competitive streak. On-the-go learning and great cash prizes are the add ons that further enhance the user experience and brings them back, wanting for more. Qureka has successfully revolutionized the live gaming space not only through its user intriguing features but also because of its seamless experience.

This fits in extremely well for an audience spread across metros, mini metros, tier 2 and tier 3 segments that uses budget smartphones with minimum memory and are habituated to micro spending and micro saving.”
