Introducing Sharks NFTs!
Starting with the 2022-23 season, fans can earn, collect, and exchange exclusive sets of Sharks NFTs by attending games and engaging with other opportunities throughout the year. Don’t miss out on these one-of-a-kind collectibles that will not only add to your NFT collection but earn fans the opportunity to unlock additional benefits.
The Sharks will be working with Ticketmaster and issuing attendance-based NFTs at the following home games at the SAP Center:
What are NFTs?
A NFT (Non-Fungible Token) is a unique, digital item with authentic blockchain-managed ownership. This means a digital collectible can be confirmed as unique at any time by looking it up on the blockchain. Examples of NFTs include digital art collectibles, virtual reality items, ownership records for physical assets, and more. For more in-depth background about NFTs click here.
What is a Blockchain?
A blockchain is a decentralized, distributed, and public digital ledger (like a database) that stores transactions, ownership records, and NFTs. At SSE, we will be activating all distributed NFTs on the “Flow” blockchain. For more in-depth background about Blockchain click here.
What is the environmental impact?
Ticketmaster selects eco-friendly, energy-efficient blockchains with a low carbon footprint. Minting (which basically means creating) an NFT on the “Flow” blockchain requires less energy than a Google search.
What are the Sharks Digital Collectibles that are planned?
Fans who attend select San Jose Sharks games (reference full game list above) at SAP Center during the course of the regular season will be eligible to receive a digital collectible at no cost. The designs of tokens will vary, and each will have a special dedicated theme affiliated with the respective game.
Who is eligible for an attendance-based Sharks Digital Collectible?
Each fan who scans into the SAP Center using a Ticketmaster SafeTix ticket at NFT-eligible games will receive a digital collectible via email. However, please note that one (1) token will be limited per Ticketmaster account regardless of how many tickets are on the individual’s account.
Going to the game with friends or family who want their own NFT? Before scanning your tickets into the game, send each person their ticket to use on their own personal Ticketmaster account. When they scan their ticket from their account, they’ll receive the commemorative NFT delivered to their email address too.
What is the significance of collecting Sharks Digital items?
Do you know how people always say they were at the Game 7 comeback against the Golden Knights in 2019 or at Timo Meier’s franchise record five-goal game last season? Well, your Sharks NFT is authentic proof of displaying you were at the Shark Tank for some of the most historic nights of the season.
Furthermore, there will be a utilitarian element where if someone collects all eight (8) Sharks digital items they will be eligible to receive a special bonus NFT at the conclusion of the season.
How do I receive and claim my Sharks Digital Collectible?
Access to the digital collectible will be made available via a link emailed to eligible recipients following a qualifying entry scan. In order to access your collectible(s), please take the following steps:
How quickly should I receive my NFT after ticket scan at entry gate?
NFT will typically be delivered within one (1) hour of the ticket scan.
How do I send my Sharks Digital Collectible to someone else?
When signed into your account and viewing your collection, click on the collectible you would like to transfer.
Click on the “Give” button, and when the modal appears, please enter the email address of your desired recipient, and then click the “Give” button once more to confirm the transfer.
Your recipient will receive an email notifying them that they have been sent a collectible. They will need to click the “Accept” button in that email and sign in with their Ticketmaster account in order to complete the transfer.
If your recipient does not accept the transfer, the collectible will remain under your ownership until they do.
What can I do with my Sharks Digital Collectibles?
Collect – You can view your collection anytime at sharks-ticketmaster.live-nfts.com/wallet.
Share – You can share a link to your collectible on social media by using the “Share” button to show that you were at the Shark Tank for the game.
Give – You can transfer your collectibles via email to any recipient of your choosing.
Sell – While we highly encourage you to keep and collect all your Sharks NFTs, as the owner of your digital collectible(s) you will have the personal option to sell your NFT(s) in the future to fellow Sharks fans who may be interested in purchasing in the Sharks digital marketplace.
