IQ Magazine has released their year ticketing report and ComeTogether is featured!

As events become more ‘digitally savvy’ the experience changes for the fans. Some good and some maybe not so good. If you’re a fan who has historically saved physical memories from an event, you might be left wanting without paper tickets and entry lanyards. NFTs are a way to make memories beyond the event.

“Performing artists and promoters are looking for ways to increase fan engagement, reward loyal fans and to monetise their audience,” says co-founder/chief revenue officer Stathis Mitskas. “NFTs provide solutions to these challenges.”

ComeTogether today announced its latest strategic partnership with SportiveWays aimed at  bringing blockchain technology for ticketing, NFT collectibles and NFT fan club memberships to sports entities.

ComeTogether will work with SportiveWays to promote the concept of NFTs in the world of sports. Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) enable sports teams to develop new revenue streams, increase fan engagement and create an ongoing royalty revenue stream. NFT ticketing can also be included in the solution to combine the topics of attendee management, fan engagement and secondary market control in a move that will solve several of the average fan’s pain points when attending sports events.

What is an NFT? An NFT provides digital ownership of assets. Created through blockchain, they are similar to a cryptocurrency. For collectors, an NFT is a digital representation of collectibles that entails uniqueness or digital scarcity.

SportiveWays has always taken a keen interest in suggesting modern solutions/services to the vast network of sports properties they work with and helping them to launch them when the time is right.

“Fan club NFTs are the next step in closer engagement to fans for all live events, rewarding their loyalty to favorite sports clubs and players,” said Lazaros Penteridis, CEO, ComeTogether.

UniqTogether is a portfolio of NFT solutions to support live event revenue streams post event while building ongoing fan engagement

ComeTogether announced today a new addition to its family of apps – UniqTogether NFT Collectibles. Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) enable event organizers to develop new revenue streams, increase fan engagement and create an ongoing royalty revenue stream long after the event has taken place. Live events of any kind can benefit from NFT solutions – from music and sports to business and culture.

What is an NFT? An NFT provides digital ownership of assets. Created through blockchain, they are similar to a cryptocurrency. For collectors, an NFT is a digital representation of collectibles that entails uniqueness or digital scarcity. A football trading card is a great example to consider. The owner of the NFT would not possess the physical card. Their token represents their ownership (or partial ownership) of the item and entitles them to sell and profit from this card.

The new portfolio includes collectibles, event memories and fan clubs all as NFTs. Fan clubs can be developed for artists or sports properties to engage more closely with their fans or event organizers to provide added to value to their attendees. The utility of fan club NFTs can include blockchain ticketing, specialized pricing, membership perks and exclusive content. Learn more about our NFT portfolio here.

“Fan club NFTs are the next step in closer engagement to fans for all live events, rewarding their loyalty to favorite performing artists and sports players,” said Lazaros Penteridis, CEO, ComeTogether.

ComeTogether realizes that not everyone is a crypto-native, so we make it easy for everyone to buy/sell through our NFT marketplace. In addition to being able to trade in cryptocurrency (ETH), we also support fiat (Euro, USD, etc) currencies. In addition, we do not charge any Ethereum (gas) fees when issuing, redeeming and exchanging NFTs.

Working with cutting edge technologies is really exciting on one hand, but can also be really challenging when you’re marketing a product that you also have to educate your customers about. Being able to tell our story to startuppergr is a great way to help get the word out about Blockchain and NFTs for live events.
