International Classification:
A63F 9/24
US Classification:
463 25, 463 42
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method for inviting members of a venture exchange to participate in a wager. The method includes receiving a wager placed by a first user; parsing the wager to determine wager characteristics associated with the wager; determining, using a processor, friends of the first user that have an affinity for the wager based on the wager characteristics; causing an interface to be displayed to the first user, where the friends of the first user are organized by a relative affinity for the wager; receiving a selection by the first user of friends to invite to participate in the wager; and transmitting a wager invitation to each friend selected by the first user.
