No. Scope is designed to be 100% user friendly, even if you are not crypto-savvy! You just need to create an account by confirming your email, like you would on any other platform, and start trading. We will act as the custodians of your NFT player cards and will display them in your roster page for you to easily interact with. You can load tokens in USD or any other major FIAT currency. 

If you ever do want to sell your NFT player cards on another marketplace or store them in your personal wallet, you are more than welcome to do so. The platform will have a function to link your wallet and become the custodians of your NFT player cards.

You will be able to cash out your tokens whenever you want on Scope. You will have to navigate to your profile page and click on the “cashout” button. The platform will automatically convert however many tokens you have into USD (or whatever major currency you want) and will deposit the funds into your linked account in the next 24-48 hours.

Every Scope athlete can sell a maximum of 500 cards per year. This means fan clubs are capped at 500 people so owning a Scope card makes your experience truly unique, unlike other subscription models out there. If there are no cards of a certain athlete for sale at a particular point in time, no new members can join the club until a new card becomes available in the marketplace. 

The Pro Shop is where athletes sell their cards directly to you. It is the primary sale of all cards on Scope. Athletes keep 85% of the revenue generated from their cards in the Pro Shop, so when you purchase a card here, you are directly supporting that athlete’s career. 

Both marketplaces (Pro Shop and Marketplace) operate in a classic English auction style. It is up to the athlete or user selling to determine the base price and the time that the auction is live, then the market determines the price of cards. You are free to bid, buy and resell as many cards as you want for whatever prices you want, the marketplace is the place for you to try to find the coolest experiences and the highest quality content you can find at the best price.
