Games content and information delivery

Used globally by retailers, distributors and insurance companies, SPOnG is the market leader in providing quality information your customers need about the games they want to buy.

Take a moment to teruse the titles listed in the current charts and, from our publicly available database, the depth and richness of SPOnG's data is immediately evident; packaging and in-game screens, age ratings, release dates, genre classification, accessories and summary.

To bolster the publicly available content, SPOnG's data delivery service ties the all important barcode to the relevant packaging, publisher and release date, along with the RRP and release type (Initial Release, Platinum, Player's Choice, etc.), providing single, coherent SKU for each game released - all provided in a single package that's easy to import into your back-end system.
