Surge is a Web3 peer-to-peer gaming platform developed on the Celo blockchain that enables quick, secure, and rewarding competitive games. With their own selection of Celo wallets, customers can effortlessly stake cUSD and participate in the live, skill-based game versus others around the world. Surge depends on smart contracts on Celo to handle stakes, game results, and payouts, allowing instant, transparent, and tamper-proof rewards. Our mission is to democratize competitive gaming to be as competitive or as silly as possible; it’s always honest and thrilling.

Our goal is to make Web3 gaming truly accessible so that everyone, everywhere, can enjoy financial opportunities and competitive fun. Surge wants to be the preferred competitive platform for the next billion blockchain users as well as mobile-first markets. We give underprivileged communities and emerging economies more than just games by utilizing Celo's advantages in speed, affordability, and real-world inclusivity.
The majority of gamer platforms today either lack the ability to include such players from developing markets, or are unable to offer instant rewards that are trustless because of high fees, long transaction times and noninclusive payment methods. Most play-to-earn and skill-based gaming platforms limit access through various technical friction / slow blockchain settlement or reliance on centralized payment processors. Millions of potential players are unable to compete without breaking any rules, especially those relying on smartphones as their primary device, and benefit from the competitive skills at that.
With Surge, we make use of Celo’s mobile-first and low gas-altitude blockchain to overcome these obstacles. Players can log in with their phone and wallet, stake stablecoins like cUSD in just a few taps, and be matched instantly into live PvP games. One of many games is in realtime and at the end, winner takes all with pots over 75% going to the winning player, and less than 25% paying a DeFi defined fee to play. Settlement is near-instant with Celo’s fast finality and low gas costs. By focusing on inclusive technology and frictionless UX, Surge enables transparent, borderless gaming where skill is all that matters.
With a focus on high-potential areas like Latin America, Africa, and India, where mobile penetration and Celo adoption are robust and where access to equitable finance and entertainment has the greatest influence, Surge is a global platform.
