What is a Fankado Card?

A Fankado Card is a digital and physical card featuring creators and other famous people. You buy a pack containing one or more digital cards of the specific creator you want and in that pack you will find a rare or base card. The card is then added to your digital collection. You get a digital version of the card in your collection and also have the right to redeem the card for a physical version of the card at an extra cost, a card can only be redeemed once. The digital collection contains the digital cards you own, and the creators can see that you own these which may unlock benefits.

How do I buy a Fankado Card?

The most common way to get a card is to buy a pack of the specific creator. When you buy a pack you get one card of that creator which could be the base card featured for the pack or a more rare card. Packs can contain different types of rares, it could be a numbered card, eg 1/1 card, 8/99 card, a premium color like gold, black or diamond vs silver, or other rarity types. In addition to buying packs, cards may be directly listed on our site, either as a direct listing from a creator, which will have a fixed price or an auction on it to bid on it.

Do cards have any special benefits or perks?

Some cards may include creator-defined extras—like access to content, community roles, event entry, etc. Benefits are optional and vary by creator/card; they’re a bonus, not a guarantee. Your digital collection contains ways for you to show that you on the card. Creators will also have ways to message you directly with event links, etc. Cards and packs are sold as non-monetary collectibles and we have no control over any offers/perks offered by a creator.

Fair drops - how drops and pack selection work

Each drop has a fixed size (e.g., 10,000 cards) and a set number of rares (e.g., 10). When the drop is created we will assign rare cards randomly to packs in the drop, for eg, if we have 10 rares then 10 random packs will have a rare. When you purchase a pack at you will randomly be assigned a pack number. You cannot choose the pack number either as the pack numbers will be pre-assigned during the drop creation and when you buy a pack you will randomly be given one of the remaining packs and there is no way to game the system.

Transparent odds - pack odds displayed on packs

On the pack page you will see the odds of pulling the rares available in a pack. Odds update as packs are opened, so to get the latest odds on a pack page please refresh the page in case more packs have been opened. The odds section will display the quantities of each type available. Please keep in mind we may only know the updated odds after a pack has been opened as you are not required to open the packs you buy right away so the odds you see will reflect the odds based on unopened packs, which may not match the unsold packs.

Who can create cards?

The platform is meant to be open to creators but there are some requirements in place. The main criteria for now is that you must have at least 250,000 total followers across the platforms you create content on (eg Youtube, Instagram, TikTok). For eg, if you have 100K youtube subs, 50K on Instagram and 100K on TikTok then you would meet our audience criteria. Your cards must include real photos of you, preferably in action shots, and then the photos will be sent for review where they may be adjusted slightly or a request to update them with guidance will be given. We don't allow drawings, cartoons, etc, at this time but may explore limited themed drops like that in the future. If you are interested in creating cards on our platform and meet the criteria you can sign up and apply to be a card creator.

Are creators on the platform verified?

Yes, the Creators on the platform are verified. Prior to creating any drops we will require a verification step to confirm the identity of the creator to ensure they are who they say they are. This is part of the creator onboarding flows in the product. Verification may include asking the creator to post a secret message in an instagram or youtube post, a verification phone call / zoom, or other steps to verify their identity.

What are the different types of rare cards?

Every pack comes with one card, it could be a base or other rarity levels. The types of rare vary by pack, and the pack page will have more specific details but the general categories are Grail cards: Grail cards are the most rare in a pack, usually numbered 1/1 and there will always be 1 in a drop and maybe a few more depending on the drop size, possibly autographs. Chase cards: These are the second most rare cards in a back, usually also numbered cards for eg #/99 or limited print styles or frames, and sometimes autographs. Rare cards: These will be card designs that are short supply and population details will be shared. Base cards:These are cards of the creator using the more common frames, no numbering, no autographs but still a nice card of the creator.

Are Fankado Cards NFTs?

No. Fankado cards are not NFTs and no crypto or blockchain is involved. You get a digital card in your Fankado collection and have the redemption right to own a physical copy of the card. Creators can see who owns their cards and your digital collection acts as your ownership of the digital card.

Can I trade digital cards?

Today, in order to trade cards, you need to order the physical card which you can then do what you want with it. The digital card is proof you own it and may enable benefits when those are offered by creators although there are no guarantees any cards will have benefits. In the future we may support transfering digital cards between users but it is not yet supported.

Can athletes, politicians or brands participate?

Yes. While we’re focused on creators today, the platform also works for athletes, and other famous people. At this time we are not supporting brands but if you are a brand looking to explore your options feel free to reach out to us.

Do cards include any extra benefits?

The cards are collectibles first, but the influencers owners can verify who owns the cards and may use that to offer some additional benefits. Any creator-defined / offered benefits are optional and not guaranteed.
