Bringing Leaf’s beloved sports card brands to the world of real money digital collectibles
DALLAS, TX & NEW YORK, February 13, 2024 – Leaf Trading Cards, a leading manufacturer and distributor of sports trading cards, is excited to announce an innovative partnership with Quidd, the digital collectibles and NFT marketplace, and subsidiary of Animoca Brands. This groundbreaking collaboration will see the two companies cooperate on an upcoming series of limited-edition sports digital trading card collections, exclusively available on the Quidd marketplace.
By combining Leaf’s rich history of innovative, beautifully designed trading cards, trusted trading card brands, and portfolio of world-class athlete relationships with Quidd’s state-of-the-art collectible marketplace technology, this collaboration will offer sports card collectors all new ways to collect their favorite sports stars.
“Trading cards have always been a cherished medium for sports fans to connect with their favorite teams and players,” said Michael Bramlage, CEO of Quidd. “We are thrilled to partner with Leaf, a leading sports trading card company and licensee of prominent sports brands and athletes, to help sports fans collect anytime they want, anywhere they reside in the world. This partnership will demonstrate the unique capabilities of digital collectibles and NFTs as a fast, fun, and entirely borderless way to collect.”
Over the coming months, Leaf and Quidd will introduce a series of officially-licensed digital trading collections that blend popular sports brands and athletes with Leaf’s beloved sports trading card brands.
The digital sports trading cards will be sold off-chain as digital collectibles in Quidd’s marketplace, but mintable by collectors to the Ethereum blockchain. This innovative approach empowers collectors to start building their first digital collections without the need for a crypto wallet, cryptocurrency, or even a credit card.
“We are excited to strike this partnership with Quidd,” said Kevin O’Neil, CEO of Leaf Trading Cards. “This collaboration opens up new avenues for collectors in the hobby. We’re taking an inclusive, big tent approach to these upcoming sports drops, ensuring there is something exciting for all collectors – those that love cardboard, those that love digital, and those that love NFTs.”
