RIVALRY COMMERCE

College / University Playbook

Existing student and campus moments can become authorized commerce placement opportunities throughout the academic year—without turning the institution into a store.

LICENSED COMMERCE INFRASTRUCTURE LAYER

You approve the deployment. We orchestrate the layer.

The college or university remains the audience owner. Independent local and regional businesses and premium sponsors participate through authorized digital placements tied to relevant student and campus moments. Transactions remain with participating businesses.

WHAT THIS CREATES

One academic calendar. Several legitimate inventory layers.

  1. 01Contextual authorized deployments
  2. 02Premium sponsor inventory
  3. 03Local-business placements
  4. 04Recurring lifecycle inventory
  5. 05Illustrative incremental placement revenue

45+ LEGITIMATE LIFECYCLE MOMENTS

The college lifecycle is larger than one campus event.

OFFERS FROM PARTICIPATING LOCAL BUSINESSES

The participating college or university is the audience owner. Offers are provided by independent participating businesses, and purchases are completed directly with each business. Rivalry Commerce does not process transactions.

30 CORE LOCAL + REGIONAL BUSINESS CATEGORIES

Broad enough to support the academic year. Specific enough to stay relevant.

PREMIUM SPONSOR OPPORTUNITY

Higher-value inventory stays distinct from vendor tiles.

WHAT COMES NEXT

Turn the moments already happening into authorized placement inventory.

The institution stays the audience owner. The student moment stays the reason. Local and regional businesses participate only when they are relevant.
