Funtico, the full-stack Web3 gaming platform, announced the launch of its platform to players worldwide. With this launch, users utilize $TICO within Funtico’s ecosystem, the largest gaming platform on Avalanche.

Players can now deposit $TICO directly into their Funtico accounts, secured and insured by BitGo. Deposits can be made through the Avalanche C-Chain network. Additionally, players can purchase $TICO directly with a credit or debit card, facilitated by Funtico’s licensed payment provider, Simplex.

Funtico’s platform also brings Verified Account authenticity features that unlocks a range of exclusive benefits for users that verify their identity, enhancing the gaming experience with added security and rewards.

The launch also brings a host of new features, platform native rewards, and gameplay designed to enrich engagement and reward active players:

  • Funtico Shop – Players can use $TICO to purchase Golden Tickets (for the ongoing $100K tournament) and Diamond Capsules, with more assets coming soon.
  • Daily Bonus & Wheel of Fortune – Players earn one XP and a free spin daily. Maintaining a 3-day streak grants three additional spins, offering 12 different rewards.
  • Capsules – Funtico game play is enhanced with Capsules of varying value, unlocking characters, collectibles, and essential in-game resources.
  • TICO Bar – An in-platform Mini-game where spins are earned through platform engagement. Players accumulate points and can hit a “jackpot”.
  • Infinity Case – Players unlock loot packs containing Infinity Items or Infinity Item Shards, the first NFT-minted assets within Funtico.
  • Shards & Forging – Users that collect 100 shards can forge new items.
  • Experience Points & Progression – Earn XP through platform engagement, leveling up to unlock customizable assets and Progress Chests containing rewards.
  • Seasonal Progression – Monthly challenges offering unique rewards for players. 

The new set of gamified features positions Funtico as an ideal blend of web2 gaming experience and familiarity, with web3 benefits to incentivize user engagement.
