Raise the Stakes on Global Trade
Experience the OEC's most strategic game yet. Export Hold'em challenges players to identify a mystery country by revealing its export portfolio one "card" at a time.
As each product is flipped, the odds shift. Can you identify the country with just two cards, or do you need the full "river" of five to be sure? It’s a test of market knowledge, geographical savvy, and economic intuition.

Impact Beyond the Numbers
Our games are design to drive engagement, with over four million visits on Tradle and more than one million active users across our games. Yet the true impact lies in how they transform data into shared experiences. Teachers use them to capture attention in classrooms, offices turn them into daily rituals, and communities organize their own tournaments. As one user put it, “Our office has a daily Tradle competition, it’s become part of our culture.”
For institutions, this is the promise of data gamification: it doesn’t just present information, it creates curiosity, builds habits, and fosters communities around knowledge.

Turning Classrooms Into Data Playgrounds
Data games open new paths for learning. For younger students, they capture the attention of who might otherwise find global trade or economics too abstract. What begins as a simple puzzle quickly grows into curiosity and conversation, turning data into something students want to explore.
At university level, instructors use games to connect theory with lived examples of trade and geography. Instead of passively reading, students test their knowledge, compare results, and engage in discussions that feel alive.
Across classrooms, the effect is clear: complex issues become approachable, fun, and memorable.
Data becomes more powerful when it’s shared. Our games are designed to bring people together and create a dedicated community.
We regularly hear from enthusiasts who organize their own tournaments and competitions with colleagues or students. Some of our games now attract more than 500,000 monthly players, sparking global communities around data.
This passion has even led us to launch a merch store, where users proudly wear their favorite game’s t-shirt, turning play into identity and creating a deeper sense of belonging.
