DingMedia Ltd., operating as dingit.tv, was established in 2014 by founder Mark Hain and is headquartered in London, England. The company launched its video-hosting platform in February 2015, focusing on the video games and eSports sector. Initially centered on broadcasting live eSports events, the platform quickly gained traction.
A significant pivot occurred in 2016 when the company shifted its content strategy from long-form tournament videos to short-form highlights, aiming to provide 'bite-sized content' for casual gamers. This change was designed to offer high-quality, easily consumable key moments from gaming videos. In a strategic move to broaden its portfolio, DingMedia Ltd.'s parent company was rebranded to Level Up Media in early 2017, with dingit.tv remaining its flagship site.
The business operates as a video hosting and streaming service for gaming and eSports content, serving a global audience of gaming fans. Its revenue model is centered on advertising, with video ads placed during natural breaks in live-streamed content. The platform collaborates with major influencers, eSports teams, and event organizers to distribute premium highlight content. By April 2015, the company had secured $1.5 million in a follow-on seed funding round led by Black Green Capital. The platform's proprietary technology aims to deliver a high-definition streaming experience with minimal buffering, enhancing engagement for both broadcasters and advertisers.
