Scuti was founded by Nicholas Longano in 2019, a 20 year video game veteran and entrepreneur. The idea for the Scuti platform reportedly came to Longano when he overheard his son and friends talking about how cool it would be to buy a product within a video game. His main focus for Scuti is to listen to players and find ways to enhance the gameplay experience for gamers. The Scuti marketplace opens the games industry to the $5T global ecommerce market and benefits the entire games eco-ysystem – players, game makers, and brands, alike.

Scuti‘s personalized, AI-driven platform gamifies shopping through product curation and an extensive rewards system for players, allowing game makers a better way to engage, retain and convert.
Scuti is built and run by leading video game veterans from Vivendi, Blizzard, Microsoft Games, Zynga, and Epic Games; each with over 20 years of game experience.

Through Scuti, players discover fully curated offerings from top brands and are rewarded with every engagement and purchase, completely unobtrusive to the game experience, and without ever leaving their game. Scuti’s rewards program enables players to earn rewards from game achievements (rewarded play), from every purchase they make, and every time they visit the store. Scuti$ can be redeemed for in-app purchases, physical products, converted to any game’s native currency or gifted from one player to the next.
