Case Study: QuizUp achieves chart-topping real-time multiplayer success with Pusher

Pusher-powered QuizUp takes both sides of the Atlantic by storm

QuizUp, the fast-paced trivia game from Plain Vanilla Games, needed instant, low-latency head-to-head gameplay so players could race to answer seven 10‑second questions. To deliver that real-time experience, QuizUp integrated Pusher’s real-time messaging platform (Pusher, a MessageBus company).

Pusher powered QuizUp’s live match updates and scoring, enabling the app to scale as user engagement surged during its first week. With Pusher handling the live connections, QuizUp saw meteoric growth on Pusher’s charts and climbed to #1 in the “Free Games” section of both the US and UK App Stores.
