🧠 Nexra Concepts

Before integrating Nexra, it helps to understand the key entities and workflows in our platform.

​
🎮 Game

A Game is the top-level entity in Nexra. Developers register their game via the Nexra Dashboard to receive a Game API Key, which is used for authorization in all API requests. Key points:
  • Contains tournaments.
  • Managed entirely by the developer via API integration.
  • Provides analytics and insights for tournaments and player engagement.

​
🏆 Tournament

A Tournament is an event where gamers compete. Each tournament can have:
  • Entry fee (optional, automatically added to the prize pool).
  • Prize pool (automatically updated as gamers join).
  • Start and end times.
  • Status: pending → published → completed.
Workflow:
  1. Developer creates a tournament via POST /tournament/create.
  2. Tournament stays pending until published.
  3. Once published, gamers can join through the game integration.
  4. Nexra automatically manages the prize pool and payouts.

​
👨‍💻 Gamer

A Gamer is a participant in a tournament. Gamers join tournaments through the game integrated with Nexra. Key points:
  • Gamers pay the entry fee (if applicable).
  • Gamers’ participation updates the prize pool automatically.
  • Gamers’ progress, ranks, and elimination status are tracked by Nexra.

​
👥 Fan

Fans interact with tournaments without directly playing. They can:
  • Predict outcomes of matches and earn rewards for accuracy.
  • Tip gamers to support their favorite participants.
  • Fund tournaments to contribute to the community.
Note: All rewards, predictions, and tips are automatically managed by Nexra.

​
💰 Predictions & Rewards

Nexra handles all calculations and payouts automatically.
  • Gamers’ entry fees go into the prize pool.
  • Accurate predictions earn rewards for fans.
  • Winners of tournaments receive their share of the prize pool automatically.
  • No manual action required from developers; Nexra ensures payouts are accurate and timely.

​
🔄 Statuses

Tournaments have several statuses:
  • Pending – created but not yet published.
  • Published – live and accepting gamers.
  • Ongoing – actively running matches.
  • Completed – tournament finished, prizes distributed.
  • Eliminated – gamers removed from the tournament due to elimination rules.

​
🔗 Workflow Summary

  1. Developer registers game → receives API Key.
  2. Developer creates tournament → tournament pending.
  3. Developer publishes tournament → gamers join.
  4. Gamers compete → Nexra updates ranks and prize pool.
  5. Fans predict, tip, or fund tournaments → rewards distributed automatically.
