Built for grassroots tournament organizers, Community Gaming’s platform makes it simple to create custom esports tournaments in under 5 minutes with preconfigured payments. Without any background knowledge of how wallets or smart contracts work, tournament organizers on Community Gaming can now seamlessly deploy their esports tournaments onto the Polygon network, allowing for instant player payments.
The Polygon team has built the premier Ethereum scaling solution now with over 5M daily transactions and 800k unique users. They have combined multiple L2 scaling approaches to combat the current stress on Ethereum’s Mainnet as we continue to see record high usage and volatile transaction fees.
Among the first tournaments deployed to the Polygon Network on CommunityGaming.io were a Gods Unchained tournament and an Axie Infinity tournament. Thousands of players are competing each month for prize pools denominated in tokens like ETH, MATIC, and USDC.

Winning players receive their tournament winnings through one single transaction, in under 3 seconds with an average transaction fee of 0.0012 MATIC. This is in stark contrast to traditional tournament payouts which can take days or weeks to complete and require organizers to tediously send payment individually. Moreover, typical prize pool fulfillment can be accompanied with significant fees and onerous accounting.
This partnership comes off the heels of Community Gaming’s recent announcement of a seed funding round in which it raised $2.3 m************** from investors such as CoinFund, Animoca Brands, Dapper Labs, Multicoin Capital, Mark Pincus’ WorkPlay Ventures, Signum Growth Capital, and Kevin Durant’s ThirtyFive Ventures.
“For event organizers on our platform, this integration means being able to easily create, run, and facilitate tournament payments with sub-penny transaction fees in any country.” says Community Gaming CEO Chris Gonsalves
“By integrating with Community Gaming we continue to bridge the gap between decentralized technologies and the competitive gaming community with fast and cheap payments combined with secure and trustless on-chain transactions. Sandeep Nailwal, Co-Founder and COO, Polygon
