Inside KIBI Sports: Complete Guide to Our Platform, Services, and Verification

When someone searches for KIBI Sports, they might be an athlete looking for the mobile app, an academy secretary looking for tournament software, a brand manager evaluating athlete sponsorships, or a buyer sourcing sports gear. Because KIBI Sports serves multiple sides of the sports ecosystem, this guide puts every product, verification standard, and official support channel in one place.

Two connected legs: software and sports commerce

KIBI Sports is a sports business from India with two legs:

1. Sports equipment and B2B exports from 257+ brand partners sold through our ecommerce storefront (shop.kibisports.com) and international B2B export desk across APAC and the Middle East.
2. A unified digital sports platform (www.kibisports.com) used by 90,000+ athletes verified through sports organisations and 100+ institutions across 20+ sports.

Founded on 16 September 2020 by former five-sport national athlete Sagar Rai and headquartered in Koramangala, Bengaluru (CIN: U92490UP2020PTC134722, DPIIT Startup India recognised, with US entity KIBI SPORTS Inc. in Delaware), KIBI replaces the patchwork of paper forms, spreadsheets, and unverified social bios that previously ran Indian grassroots sport.

1. For Athletes & Players: The KIBI Sports Mobile App

Available on Google Play (com.kibisportsapp) and the Apple App Store (id6776941529) with a 4.2 ★ rating on both stores, the KIBI Sports mobile app gives players a portable, verifiable career record:

• Three-layer verification: Government ID and live selfie check via Didit plus admin review, certificate/scorecard verification, and competition records verified through sports organisations.
• Tournament & event participation: Discover upcoming tournaments across 20+ sports, register digitally, check in on matchday via QR code, and receive automated digital certificates.
• Tier badges (Nano to Mega): Earned through verified competition activity and audience reach so brands and scouts evaluate real sporting merit.
• Verified crowdfunding: Raise funds for equipment, coaching, or international tournament travel on KIBI Fundraise, where every campaign is KYC-verified and contributions settle directly to the athlete's own bank account.

2. For Academies, Clubs & Associations: Institutional SaaS

Over 100+ institutions use the KIBI Institutional SaaS Portal (admin.kibisports.com) to run operations without Google Forms or manual payment screenshots:

• End-to-end tournament management: Online registrations, automated fee reconciliation, dynamic brackets that regenerate when players withdraw, daily QR attendance, live scoring, and digital certificates.
• Academy batch & fee management: Manage multiple centres, coaching batches, attendance QR codes, and recurring fee plans with role-based staff permissions.
• KIBI Matchday for WhatsApp communities: Community organisers run recurring games directly inside WhatsApp via KIBI Matchday (play.kibisports.com), automating game broadcasts, RSVPs, waitlists, and attendance without forcing casual players to install an app.

3. For Coaches, Physios & Venue Operators: Pro Services

Through KIBI Pro Services and Venue Booking, certified sports coaches, physiotherapists, strength trainers, nutritionists, and turf/court operators publish their credentials and session availability:

• Two-OTP session confirmation: Clients pay upfront on regulated Indian payment rails. The professional enters a START code when the session begins and an END code when it finishes before payout is released.
• No-show protection: If a provider does not show up, KIBI reviews the report and issues a full refund to the client's original payment method.

4. For Brands & Corporate CSR: 3-Stage AI Matchmaking

Instead of guessing based on vanity follower counts, brands use the AI Brand Matchmaker and Brand Sponsorship Portal:

• Stage 1 (Rule Fit): Filters 90,000+ athletes verified through sports organisations by sport, city, language, deliverable capability, and budget.
• Stage 2 (Semantic Embeddings): Matches the campaign brief to athlete portfolios and competition histories using vector similarity.
• Stage 3 (LLM Evaluation): Produces a composite fit score and human-readable rationale for every shortlisted athlete or tournament in under a minute.
• Section 135 CSR Sports Activations: Corporate CSR teams deploy Schedule VII clause (vii) sports training budgets through KIBI CSR with milestone audits and statutory disclosure documentation.
