The FanCraze picks the best moments from the game and then converts them into 3D digital cards that feature a video and photo of the moment. When the match gets over, a person can open their pack to find out which of the moments they ended up getting.
Now, once the person got their digital collectible, he/she can display it on social media, use it in FanCraze’s Flash game to earn cash prizes or trade it online.
“Pre-buying a pack before a game give you this really cool experience where you see now and buy now. Within three hours of a game ending, you have the moment in your wallet, so the moment you just saw is now yours,” FanCraze CEO Anshum Bhambri explained, adding, “The other thing it does is really illustrate the difference between owning a moment and watching a video of it online. You get access to this moment and the video of it immediately.”
