TL;DR: Calling all NFT collection owners, creators and community members! We’re rolling out a new way for you to showcase your favorite brands and projects with Sponsored Badges. Building on our existing Badges feature, now you can easily create your own badges for your favorite projects.

What’s changed

Badges represent your achievements, skills, ownership and other accomplishments in Web3. Whether earned or awarded, Badges allow anyone to verify and showcase their accomplishments within their Unstoppable profile and get rewarded for their contributions in Web3. 

Utilizing the same underlying technology, Sponsored Badges allow community members to create sponsored badges for their favorite NFT community. Activate a Sponsored Badge from your profile so that you and other community members can prove ownership of NFT assets and showcase your favorite brands—signaling involvement in those communities in a fun and social way. 

The possibilities are endless

Sponsored Badges put NFT community members in control and offer a number of benefits to NFT collection owners and creators. For example:

  • Brand awareness: Attract fans, promote your collections and increase advocacy directly within your community—all while cultivating a thriving community of collectors.
  • Token-gated experiences: Create token-gated experiences enabled by Login with Unstoppable for events, workshops, and other exclusive activities for dedicated community members using Sponsored Badges.
  • Analytics: Gain insights into your community and how to best engage with them with analytics from Unstoppable Domains – coming soon.
  • Social signaling: Set up a Sponsored Badge for your favorite project, showing your community support and helping collectors more easily connect. 

In addition, all Unstoppable Badges are easy to share. Simply copy and paste your UD.me profile link to your favorite social media channels to put your achievements front and center for the Web3 world to see. Don’t want to display your Badges publicly? No worries—you can always decide which Badges, whether Sponsored or earned, you want to be visible or private within your profile.
