Livestreaming quiz applications are witnessing an explosive surge in China by drawing in a record number of participants in just a few days, making it the next growth frontier of the livestreaming sector in China.



The apps, which broadcast a live show, usually invite a host to ask questions of increasing difficulty. Players tap the handset's screen within 10 seconds to lock in answers. Those who can correctly answer all 12 questions will share the prize pool ranging from 100,000 yuan ($15,340) to over a million yuan.



The low cost, interactive mode of livestreaming, along with tantalizing incentives, have provided fresh impetus to the livestreaming sector that has often been stereotyped with routine shows and games.


The rising popularity has prompted firms such as Zhishi Chaoren, Baiwan Yingjia and Chongding Dahui to offer higher incentives to attract users.



Zhishi Chaoren, backed by leading Chinese livestream platform Inke, is offering a prize of 1.01 million yuan for a single round at the peak, while its rival Baiwan Yingjia is giving a maximum of 1.02 million yuan for a single round.


Zhishi Chaoren has also roped in famous Chinese stars as hosts in a bid to differentiate from other apps and attract more users.



With millions of users logging into the livestreaming apps at the same time, an array of challenges has also arrived, including the load-carrying capacity of servers and fluency of user experience.



Here are some useful tips for winning prizes on online quiz apps!



▌Invite all your friends to play



The easiest way to get an advantage in these quizzes is to get an extra life, and the easiest way to get extra lives is to invite your friends. To do this, just open the app and send your invitation code to your friends.



▌Stay online even after you lose


It's tempting to shut the app in a fit of pique as soon as you get an answer wrong, but it's worth keeping it open if you can. Not only will you get a better feel for the types of questions you might encounter later, but you can also gain knowledge and get more information about the rounds to follow.



▌Turn on notifications



There are so many quizzes taking place on all the different apps throughout the day that it's easy to lose track. So just allow notifications, and the apps will let you know when a new game is about to begin. The more games you play, the better your chances of winning!



▌Play with friends



A ton of different topics are covered in each quiz, from music and history to sports and science, so it helps to have a group of people playing together. Not only is it more likely that someone in the group will know the answer, but if one person gets eliminated, the entire group still has a shot at winning some cash.



▌Keep calm



Sometimes, a quiz can be really intense, especially if it comes down to the last one or two particularly tricky questions. So it's important to keep calm and read the questions thoroughly. Even if you are unsure of the right answer, you can still make a good guess with a calm mind and the relevant knowledge. Panicking doesn't help at all!



Follow these tips and you'll be one step closer to getting through an entire round of a quiz and snagging some of that free money. Good luck!
