Sponsored Challenges

Behind every challenge is an athlete with a goal.

Sponsored challenges allow brands to set goals for athletes and provide motivation in their lives.

Get in front of your active audience

You offer the Challenge – be it based on distance, time or something else related to your brand – and the incentive, e.g. a discount or an entry to a grand prize drawing. Athletes see the challenge and join it – and their followers will see that they’ve done so.

Challenges appear naturally on the Strava platform and are a proven way to promote awareness, drive revenue and build your audience.

A huge range of ways to be active

Combining precise targeting with a great incentive, challenges are an authentic way to get your target audience to engage with your brand whilst being active.

Choose from targeting by sport type, location and demographics, and combine with six types of activation.

The result? Every challenge feels unique and authentic.
