Mathletics

Mathletics is an online educational website which launched in 2005. The website operates through a subscription model, offering access at an individual and school level. Online users, known as ‘Mathletes’, have access to math quizzes and challenges, and can participate in a real-time networked competition known as ‘Live Mathletics’. A customisable avatar visually represents each player in the ‘Live Mathletics’ competitions. ‘Credits’ are awarded through the completion of quizzes and tasks, which can be used to customise their avatar’s clothing and aesthetics.

In 2007, Mathletics started World Maths Day, and in 2010, World Maths Day obtained a Guinness World Record for the Largest Online Maths Competition. As of 2023, Mathletics caters to 3.2 million users worldwide and 14,000 schools.
