FIFA announced it would launch the ‘FIFA+ Collect NFT collection in September 2022, powered by AlGorand Blockchain, FIFA’s official blockchain platform. The NFT collection will provide football fans worldwide with the chance to own unique digital collectables affordably – from the most significant game moments to the most iconic FIFA World Cup and FIFA Women’s World Cup art and imagery.

It comes just a few months before the launch of the FIFA World Cup Qatar. FIFA Chief Business Officer Romy Gai said, “Fandom is changing, and football fans worldwide engage with the game in new and exciting ways. This exciting announcement makes FIFA collectables available to any football fan, democratising the ability to own a part of the FIFA World Cup. Like sports memorabilia and stickers, this is an accessible opportunity for fans worldwide to engage with their favourite players, moments and more on new platforms.”

FIFA+ Collect will release a range of initial collections and details of upcoming exclusive and limited-edition collections. FIFA+ Collect will be available on FIFA+, a digital platform created to connect football fans more deeply with the game they love. From launch, FIFA+ Collect will be open across all web and mobile devices and in three language editions (English, French, and Spanish), with several additional languages to follow.

FIFA+ Collect is powered by Algorand, the official blockchain platform of FIFA. W Sean Ford, the interim CEO of Algorand, said, “FIFA’s platform, via a truly decentralised and scalable public blockchain, is the first tangible representation of the recently announced technical partnership between FIFA and Algorand. FIFA’s commitment to bridge to Web3 enabled by Algorand is a testament to their innovative spirit and desire to directly and seamlessly engage with football fans worldwide.”
