TicketsCINCINNATI – Cincinnati Athletics, in partnership with WMT, Ticketmaster and LAVA, today announced the launch of a new mobile app designed to unify the fan experience across ticketing, content, loyalty, and in-venue engagement, all in one connected platform.
Cincinnati is the first college athletics program to integrate LAVA, the real-time engagement platform used by more than 50 professional sports teams, across the NFL, NBA, NHL and beyond. This technology allows the app to respond dynamically to fan behavior, delivering personalized offers, exclusive content, and engagement-based rewards.
With Ticketmaster integrated directly into the platform, fans can also manage tickets, enter venues with ease, and access benefits like 10 percent off concessions for season ticket members via LAVA. More information will be e-mailed to season ticket members on how to access discounts through LAVA in the coming days.
“This upgraded mobile app and our partnerships with Ticketmaster and LAVA, as well as Fan Compass, are all about putting our fans first,” said Anthony DiFino, Cincinnati’s Deputy AD for External/Chief Revenue Officer. “From easier ticketing and fan contests to personalized content and exclusive game-day perks like discounted concessions, we’re committed to delivering a best-in-class fan experience every time you engage with Bearcats Athletics.”
The launch follows the recent redesign of GoBearcats.com, which debuted July 1 in partnership with WMT. Together, the website and app represent a full-scale upgrade to Cincinnati’s digital ecosystem, providing fans with a modern, interactive platform to stay engaged every day of the year.
“This project was about delivering a fully connected fan experience,” said Andres Focil, CEO of WMT. “By integrating content, ticketing, and loyalty into one seamless experience, we’ve helped Cincinnati deliver on its vision for next-generation fan engagement. They are setting a new standard for what’s possible in college athletics.”
The Cincinnati Bearcats app is available now in the App Store and Google Play. Search “Cincinnati Bearcats” to download.

The app will also feature contests through Fan Compass, UC’s official technology partner, giving all UC fans the chance to engage with the Bearcats, gain rewards and win prizes. This platform offers interactive experiences—from trivia and sweepstakes to unique features like Predict-It, where fans can guess the outcome of key moments.
