PORTO ALEGRE — DECEMBER 20TH: Sport Club Internacional, in partnership with Chiliz, the leading blockchain providers for the sports and entertainment industry, have announced that they will launch their official Fan Token $SACI on the Socios.com all-in-one fan engagement and rewards app.
Based in Porto Alegre, capital of the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Inter, as it’s popularly known, is one of Brazil’s most successful football clubs, having won the Copa Libertadores (2006 & 2010), the Copa Sudamericana (2008) and the FIFA Club World Cup (2006) as well as three Campeonato Brasileiro Série A titles.
The $SACI Fan Token will unlock unprecedented opportunities for Inter’s local and global fan bases to engage with and influence the team. $SACI Fan Token holders will be able to have a say on a number of decisions such as kit designs, squad numbers for new signings, celebration songs, inspirational messages and other fan-related topics by voting on binding polls on Socios.com.
Influencing the club is just one of the many perks of this innovative tool that is changing the way fans connect with their teams and heroes across the global sports industry. $SACI holders will also enjoy exclusive discounts and promotions as well as the chance to earn unique rewards, from signed merch and VIP tickets to NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens), which will allow fans to hold and collect the most memorable moments in the history of their beloved team like never before.
Fans will also be able to connect with other Colorados around the world, putting their skills to the test in games and quizzes, competing in global leaderboards and earning real-life and digital club-related rewards, benefits and experiences along the way.
The launching date of the $SACI Fan Token will be announced soon as will the subject of the first Fan Poll, which will be available on the Socios.com app as soon as the Token is released.

“Brazil is the world’s capital when it comes to love for football and we are proud to now have six clubs on our roster, all of whom belong to the country’s famous Big 12. Our arrival in Brazil just four months ago was a game-changer for Socios.com. Our Brazilian partners and our Brazilian users are making a huge contribution to the growth and development of our product, and I’m sure this partnership will allow us to continue building a stronger platform and even better experiences for the fans.”
